Hello, CEOs!
During today’s update on April 28th (Mon), an unexpected issue occurred, and we will be conducting an additional maintenance at 08:00 (UTC+0).
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by our lack of preparation.
Please refer to the details of the maintenance below.
🗓️ Maintenance Schedule
April 28th, 2025 (Mon) 08:00 – April 28th, 2025 (Mon) 08:10 (10 minutes) (UTC+0)
Improved instability in the stock market.
We sincerely apologize once again for the inconvenience caused during gameplay.
Thank you as always for your continued love and support.
Hello, CEOs. Maintenance and an update will take place starting at 02:00 on April 28th (Mon).
*Due to issues encountered during the maintenance, the maintenance has been extended by 2 hours, and is now expected to be completed at 05:00 (UTC+0) on April 28th.
*Due to additional time required to resolve issues, the maintenance will be extended by an additional 2 hours. The maintenance is now expected to end at 07:00 (UTC+0) on April 28th.
Please check the details below for more information.
April 28th, 2025 (Mon), 02:00 – 03:00 05:00 07:00 (UTC+0)
Gold ×300,000
Team Permit ×3
Diamonds ×500 (Extended Maintenance Compensation)
*Additional compensation for extended maintenance will be announced later.
[Enhancement of Company Value and Profitability]
Increased Sales Stat Efficiency The amount of Gold earned per second has been increased by approximately 100%. Basic Gold acquisition from subsidies and Gold pouches will also increase.
Major Expansion of Short Selling Limits The available short selling volume based on company value has been increased up to 10 times compared to before. Even with a smaller amount of Gold, if your company value is high, you will be able to secure more volume for short-term use.
These changes will allow CEOs with higher company values at the start of each season to secure more seed money. While it may still be possible for CEOs with lower company values to accumulate more assets through stock trading within a season, such fluctuations will be limited to the current season only. We will continue to ensure that starting with a higher company value remains advantageous.
[Stock Trading Logic Adjustment and Convenience Improvements]
Change in Stock Trading Fee System The trading fee, which was previously applied at the time of order placement, will now be charged at the time of execution. The fee rate has been increased up to twice the previous rate, applying a more accurate fee per transaction unit.
Stock Trading Convenience Improvements and Bug Fixes The system purchase bid quantity has been expanded, allowing up to 100 bids compared to the previous limit of 30, making bid structures denser. An error in the display of average purchase price has been fixed to accurately reflect the actual trading price.
We have updated the trading system to change the way fees are collected and fixed various residual bugs. This patch also improves transaction stability, aiming to mitigate sudden price spikes when trading at market or limit prices, and to enable a more stable trading environment without extreme price volatility.
[Gold Reset Related Compensation Notice]
After the season reset, the amount exceeding [10 billion] Gold will be partially converted into Diamonds as compensation. (One-time distribution on May 5th)
At the time of reset (May 5th), for every 100 million Gold exceeding 10 billion, 10 Diamonds will be awarded, with a maximum limit of 10,000 Diamonds.
(Example 1) If the final Gold amount is 25 billion, after applying a 50% tax (12.5 billion), the 2.5 billion excess will grant 250 Diamonds.
(Example 2) If the final Gold amount is 50 billion, after applying a 50% tax (25 billion), the 15 billion excess will grant 1,500 Diamonds.
(Example 3) If the final Gold amount is 220 billion, after applying a 50% tax (110 billion), the 100 billion excess will grant the maximum 10,000 Diamonds.
(Example 4) If the final Gold amount is 300 billion, after applying a 50% tax (150 billion), the 140 billion excess would normally grant 14,000 Diamonds, but will be capped at the maximum of 10,000 Diamonds.
In the regular season, a new Financial Profit Ranking system will be introduced, and rewards will be distributed periodically based on rankings. Details will be announced in the Season 1 Patch Notes.
[28-Day Attendance Event End Notice]
The 28-Day Attendance Event is scheduled to end at 23:59 (UTC+0) on April 30th.
The 28-Day Attendance Event will return with even greater rewards when Season 1 begins on May 5th.
Following the release of the previous Developer Notes, many CEOs expressed concerns about game balance. Therefore, we have decided to reward Diamonds for excess Gold beyond the set cap.
We apologize once again for the sudden changes and confusion this may have caused.
Although the Gold reset is a necessary measure for maintaining a healthy game ecosystem, we deeply regret the confusion and misunderstanding caused during the communication process.
We will continue to listen to our users' voices and strive to make [Self-Made Billionaire] an even better game.
The detailed patch notes will be uploaded on April 28th.
Thank you as always for your continued love and support.

[Stock Market Improvements]
50% Increase in System Trading Volume
Player participation has exceeded our expectations, and we’re increasing system buy/sell volumes by 50% to support smoother trading.

This change will also strengthen the effect of news on stock prices.
Adjustment to Simultaneous Bid Matching Logic
The order matching logic during simultaneous bidding has been improved.
Previously, orders were not matched according to price priority, causing abnormal price jumps during large volume trades. This issue has now been resolved.
Stock UI/Logic Fixes
Short selling collateral is no longer included in your usable balance.
Fixed an issue where prices could drop one tick below the lower limit.
Stocks will now strictly follow the ±30% price range rule.

Improved responsiveness when tapping price entries that previously did not register correctly.
Enhanced the scrolling behavior within the order book for smoother navigation.
