Monkey Money



Monkey Money  or MM is the secondary currency in Bloons Tower Defense 5. The player can earn it by completing tracks or buy it in sets (10 minimum). Once you complete a track and get Monkey Money, and you complete the same track on the same difficulty again, you receive 20% of the original reward. If you load a game that you previously finished, you are unable to get another reward. As of now, Monkey Money can buy Special Agents, play tracks with the Extreme Difficulty level, buy land for and build/upgrade Specialty Buildings, and buy single-use Premium Upgrades (BTD5). Currently there are 3 Extreme Difficulty tracks, Bloontonium Lab, Tar PIts & Main Street.

Trivia

 * It looks like an American dollar bill in real life, except they have a monkey (apparently named George Monkeyton) on them.
 * Its much easier to get Monkey Money on BTD5 Deluxe, as many rewards are twice what they are on the online version in addition to four times the reward for Special Missions. Also, the Extreme Difficulty tracks give massive Monkey Money rewards (900 for Easy, 1,200 for Medium, and 1,800 for Hard) instead of Awesome Points).
 * Speaking of BTD5D, you can get premium upgrades by using Monkey Money instead (Though much more expensive)
 * In iOS versions of BTD5, the player can get monkey money by opening the chest everyday.
 * If the player goes to their devices settings, then Date and Time, they can change the date. Changing the date makes the iOS version of TD5 think that it is a new day, so the player can then open the chest multiple times everyday, giving the player "Unlimited Monkey Money."
 * However if you do this and set the time back to normal the chest cannot be used until the actual "day" comes.
