We built the stock market game that we always wanted. Compete with friends by simulating investing in over 4000+ stocks. It’s also free and open-source.
Bloom Stock Market GameMaker
Hi Product Hunt!
I’m Sonny, one of the co-founders of Bloom. We started Bloom with the shared vision of getting the next generation to start building wealth early.
For many of us, our first interaction with investing was a simulated stock market game. Whether that was in a high school economics class, an after school club, or a Discord server, it made investing more approachable and enjoyable.
A product separate from the Bloom app, the Bloom Stock Market Game is what we would’ve wanted when we started out:
📊 Portfolio Graphs - see how your portfolio is performing and how your friends are performing as well.
⏰ Real-time data - use live stock market data to run the game.
👯♂️ Play with up to 100 friends - compete to see who gets on the leaderboard.
👻 Free and Open Source - we want the game to be for everyone :) Find the code here.
Looking forward to your feedback!

Hey gang, this looks really cool.
I am running into a bit of an issue though - the app experience is a bit off, I think.
I can only sign up as a parent or teen, but the site seems to allow me to sign up generally. And when I click parent in the app it's not accepting the credentials I created on the site.
It also seems a bit unnecessary to require turning on notifications and linking contacts, especially for the teen accounts.

@blamealan Hey fellow Al(l)an - This specific product hunt launch is for our online stock market simulator (https://game.joinbloom.co/game/join) that anyone can sign up and use via web.
I believe you may have gotten this confused with our app, which is an education/real investing product for teenagers + parents! If you have any more questions, feel free to reply here or shoot us an email support@joinbloom.co

@allanmaman ah ok makes sense. I thought the app and the site would be similar experiences. It'd be awesome to get those web features in the app as well, down the road.

Congratulations for the product launch! Great idea with gorgeous implementation. Although, when I tried to access your GitHub repo today (Aug 19), it seems to return 404 to me.

MerLoc - Debug Lambdas with real dataLooks great, enabling custom data sources can also help users to have customized competitions. Also github link at your comment seems broken. Gz on the launch!
