Rent is due every Saturday 18:00 GMT, with 24 hours' grace and auto-pay. The same clock for everyone, everywhere.

04 · History

Every district is a chapter of crypto history.

Hashport's founders built each district as a Chronicle. Every season a new one opens, with its own look, rules, risks and stories. Scroll through time and watch the city change.

  3. E2Playable
    2013–2016

    Altcoin Alley

    Forks and altcoins in the forge-lit yards: ASIC rigs arrive, blocks become a lottery, and miners pool their hash.

06 · Chain

Every move lands on the chain.

Buy a coffee and it's a transaction. Transactions wait in Mempool Plaza, then the Ledger Tower seals them into a block that anyone in the city can check.

This lab runs the Street Chain's real block format in your browser. Seal a block, try to mine one, then try to cheat.

It's a lesson, not money: BLK and GEN are game currencies and never leave the game.

      07 · City

      The city lives without you.

      Power, water, internet, traffic and taxes run around the clock. Residents keep their shifts and remember you. Storms roll in, Pizza Day comes round, an exchange wobbles. The paper reports it all.

      Players write the next chapter.

      Every week the city votes on its sales tax, and the result funds the clinics, the grid and the trains. Next come mayor races, and the big vote at the end of each season that decides where history goes.

      11 · What's next

      Real rewards are on the way.

      Two big things are being built alongside the game: real-money rewards for set tasks, and a launch pad for player tokens built to keep rug pulls out.

      Both are in development and not available yet. They will be for adults (18+) and only in countries where the law allows.

      • Real-money rewards

        Coming

        Complete set tasks, like sponsored challenges, seasonal competitions and selling what you create, and get paid in real money.

        • Funded by sponsors and the game's revenue, never by other players' deposits.
        • Free to take part. Rewards are capped and paid out after checks.
        • BLK and GEN stay game money and are never cashed out.

        Coming later. 18+ with ID checks, and only in countries where the law allows.

      • Chain Streets Launchpad

        Coming

        A separate app, connected to Chain Streets, for launching fan and community tokens. Only Chain Streets players can launch on it.

        • Built for the community: your crew, your venue, your city.
        • Controlled and secured, and designed to cut down rug pulls.
        • A separate, optional app: you never need it to play the game.

        In development. 18+ and only where the law allows. Tokens are risky and can lose all their value. Nothing here is financial advice.

      12 · In the game

      14 · Questions

      Good questions.

      What is Chain Streets?

      A life sim and city builder in Hashport, a bright harbour city of the future that runs on its own chain. You arrive with almost nothing, then work, build, trade, make friends and vote your way up. Every district replays a chapter of crypto history.

      When can I play?

      Soon. Hashport is getting ready for its first residents. Come back to this page for the opening.

      What do I play on?

      A web browser, on a computer or a phone. Nothing to download.

      Do I need crypto or a wallet?

      Not to play. The chain is part of the game world, and you play with BLK and GEN, the city's own money. The Chain Streets Launchpad, when it opens, is a separate app with its own rules.

      Can I make real money?

      Not yet, but it's coming. Real-money rewards for set tasks, like sponsored challenges, seasonal competitions and selling what you create, are being built. They will be for adults (18+) with ID checks, capped, and only in countries where the law allows. BLK and GEN stay game money and are never cashed out.

      What is the Chain Streets Launchpad?

      A separate app, connected to Chain Streets and in development, for launching fan and community tokens. Only Chain Streets players can launch on it, and it is designed to cut down rug pulls. It will be 18+ and only where the law allows. Tokens are risky and can lose all their value, and nothing here is financial advice.

      Is it a real city?

      No. Hashport and every other place in the game are fictional and original, made for players all over the world. Brands in the game are made up too.

      What happens when I log off?

      The city keeps going. Residents work their shifts, markets move and The Block Times reports the news. Rent still comes due on Saturday 18:00 GMT, so set up auto-pay before a long break.

      Is it safe?

      Voice chat is muted until you turn it on, video is for adults only, and anyone can report or block another player. AI characters never see your personal data.

      Hashport is almost ready.

      Your bed in a shared room is made up. The maglev is warming up.
