How To Play Pips

In Pips, you have a grid of multicolored boxes. Each colored area represents a different “condition” that you have to achieve. You have a select number of dominoes that you have to spend filling in the grid. You must use every domino and achieve every condition properly to win. There are Easy, Medium and Difficult tiers.

Here’s an example of a difficult tier Pips:

As you can see, the grid has a bunch of symbols and numbers with each color. On the far left, the three purple squares must not equal one another (hence the equal sign crossed out). The two pink squares next to that must equal a total of 0. The zig-zagging blue squares all must equal one another. You click on dominoes to rotate them, and will need to since they have to be rotated to fit where they belong.

Not shown on this grid are other conditions, such as “less than” or “greater than.” If there are multiple tiles with > or < signs, the total of those tiles must be greater or less than the listed number. It varies by grid. Blank spaces can have anything. The various possible conditions are:

  • = All pips must equal one another in this group.
  • ≠ All pips must not equal one another in this group.
  • > The pip in this tile (or tiles) must be greater than the listed number.
  • < The pip in this tile must be less than the listed number.
  • An exact number (like 6) The pip must equal this exact number.
  • Tiles with no conditions can be anything.

In order to win, you have to use up all your dominoes by filling in all the squares, making sure to fit each condition. Sometimes there’s only one way to solve the puzzle. Other times, there can be two or more different solutions. Play today’s Pips puzzle here.

Hard Pips Walkthrough And Solution

Here’s today’s Hard Pips:

Today’s Hard Pips

Obviously, today’s Hard Pips is the number 14, which is no surprise given we’ve had almost entirely number-shaped Hard Pips for two weeks now. I wonder how high they’ll take this over at The New York Times. 99 perhaps? I’ve got 99 problems and a Pips ain’t one. Okay, let’s get started.

Step 1

Admittedly, there wasn’t a super obvious place to start, but based on the dominoes in our collection today, I figured 5’s would make sense for the Dark Blue = group. I tested this theory by seeing if we had a 1/5 and a 4/5 domino and we did, so I plugged those into Orange 1 and Green 4 respectively.

Step 2

Next, I placed the 5/2 domino from Dark Blue = into Purple = and the 1/2 domino from Dark Blue 1 up into Purple = finishing that group off. I wrapped up Dark Blue = with the 5/1 domino down into the free tile, and plugged the 1/3 domino from the Purple 1 tile over into the second free tile.

Step 3

At this point, we have four double dominoes remaining, and we’ll need both our larger sets for the two 14 groups. I placed the 5/5 domino in Pink 14 and the 4/4 domino from Pink 14 into the Blue 4 tile.

Solution

Next, I placed the 6/6 domino into the top Blue 14 tiles and the 2/3 domino from Blue 14 into the final free tile. I wrapped things up with the 1/1 domino in Orange = and that was that.

Surprisingly, I didn’t have to adjust at all today. No backtracking. Everything just sort of came together exactly how it needed to which was pretty nice. Did you find any alternate way to solve today’s Pips?

De grootste Ethereum (ETH) treasury ter wereld, BitMine Immersion Technologies, heeft weer toegeslagen op de crypto markt. Uit on-chain data blijkt dat BitMine, ook bekend onder het ticker symbool BMNR, voor $44 miljoen aan ETH munten heeft gekocht. Wat betekent dit voor de grootste altcoin?

Nu naar Discord BitMine verdubbelt inzet op Ethereum Om precies te zijn koopt BitMine 14.618 ETH munten erbij, goed voor dus $44 miljoen. Zo blijkt uit on-chain gegevens gedeeld door Lookonchain op X. Daarmee tilt de grote Ethereum treasury zijn voorraad naar maar liefst 3,63 miljoen ETH ter waarde van ruim $11 miljard, aldus data van StrategicETHReserve. Daarmee controleert het bedrijf nu 3% van alle Ethereum in omloop. Tom Lee(@fundstrat)’s #Bitmine just bought another 14,618 $ETH($44.34M) 4 hours ago.https://t.co/P684j5Yil8 pic.twitter.com/LHOpDto1R5 — Lookonchain (@lookonchain) November 28, 2025 De ambities liggen desondanks een stuk hoger: BitMine wil uiteindelijk 5% van de volledige ETH voorraad bezitten. Oftewel, we kunnen nog flink wat Ethereum aankopen verwachten van het bedrijf in de komende maanden. Door de aggresssieve ETH strategie van het bedrijf zijn ze bij uitstek de grootste Ethereum reserve. De nummer twee, SharpLink Gaming, bezit ongeveer 859.400 ETH munten ter waarde van zo’n $2,62 miljard. Deze agressieve uitbreiding volgt een duidelijke strategie. BitMine verwacht dat Ethereum een grotere rol in de tokenisatie. Bedrijven bezitten samen al bijna 5,01% van alle ETH, een signaal dat corporates zich voorbereiden op een toekomst waarin Ethereum een basislaag wordt voor financiële infrastructuur. Waarom BitMine zijn treasury blijft uitbreiden BitMine bouwt zijn treasury verder uit omdat het een dominante positie in het Ethereum netwerk wil innemen. Meer ETH geeft BitMine straks hogere staking-opbrengsten en meer invloed op de liquiditeit binnen het netwerk. Ook gelooft BMNR sterk in de rol van Ethereum in de toekomst van financiële infrastructuur. Bestuurslid Tom Lee verwacht dat ETH een dominante speler zal zijn in de stablecoin en tokenisatie markt. Beide sectoren zijn hard aan het groeien, mede dankzij duidelijke wet- en regelgeving onder de Trump administratie zoals de GENIUS Act. Daarnaast gelooft Tom Lee in een zogeheten supercycle voor ETH. Volgens de bekende top analist kan de grootste altcoin zelfs Bitcoin (BTC) voorbijstreven, allemaal dankzij grootschalige adoptie door tokenisatie. Als Ethereum de huidige marketcap van BTC wil evenaren dan zou de ETH koers al op ruim $15.000 komen. ETH en BMNR krabbelen langzaam op uit diepe dip De ethereum prijs reageerde vandaag beperkt op het nieuws. De altcoin steeg over de afgelopen 24 uur met 0,8% tot een huidige koers van $3.050. Daarmee zet de munt samen met de rest van de crypto markt een stijgende trend voort. Na een heftige crash in de afgelopen weken zakte de ETH koers vorige week vrijdag tot onder de $2.700. Ook het BMNR aandeel is langzaam aan het terugkrabbelen. Het ETH treasury bedrijf zakte vorige week tot $26. Een flinke crash ten opzichte van de all time high van $135 dat het bedrijf in juli van dit jaar nog wist te realiseren. De sterke daling van het BMNR aandeel valt samen met een algehele neerwaartse trend onder crypto treasury bedrijven. Ook Strategy, de grootste publieke Bitcoin houder, is ook flink lager aan het handelen vanaf zijn all time. Zo staat het MSTR aandeel momenteel op $175 tegenover een prijs record van $457 in juli.

Upbit hack sparks altcoin season in Korea? Thailand targets WLD

Upbit hack sparks altcoin season in Korea? Thailand targets WLD

The post Upbit hack sparks altcoin season in Korea? Thailand targets WLD appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Korean crypto bros are pumping altcoins after Upbit’s $36M exploit Korean crypto traders are having an outsize effect on local altcoin prices following a major hack at South Korean exchange Upbit, according to CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju. (Ki Young Ju) “Upbit got hacked and paused withdrawals, but Koreans are pumping alts since arbitrage bots are no longer running,” Ju said in an X post on Thursday, shortly after the exchange halted transaction activity after detecting an “abnormal transaction” with a value of around $36 million. With arbitrage activity suspended, local buy orders are having more significant pressure on prices, allowing Korean-listed altcoins to surge, as the selling pressure that typically puts a ceiling on price increases has disappeared. Crypto trader R2D2 said, “Unbelievable scenes here.” Crypto analyst A79 said, “Hack happens, and Koreans just flip it into a rally.” Upbit announced on Thursday that it had suspended deposits and withdrawals after identifying an unauthorized transaction worth approximately 54 billion won ($36 million), involving mainly Solana-based assets that were transferred to an unidentified wallet address. Assets reportedly affected by the hack include BONK (BONK), Official Trump (TRUMP), MOODENG (MOODENG), and Render (RENDER). Upbit to cover loss to prevent “any damage” to user assets The exchange clarified that while the hot wallet was impacted, its cold wallets — where the majority of user funds are stored — were not compromised. Dunamu CEO Oh Kyung-seok said: “We immediately identified the extent of the digital asset outflow caused by the abnormal withdrawals and will cover the entire amount with Upbit assets to prevent any damage to our members’ assets.” Some industry participants were confused by the fact that all the red numbers Ju shared were positive. StarkWare ecosystem lead Brother Odin was quick to ask the obvious question, before Ju explained that red…
