We don't mine Bitcoin on users resources this is a witch hunt. I have nowhere mentioned mining and our app does not mine. Mining only works with huge ASIC farms mostly in China with cheap power. We are not involved in this at all.

Our app has ads, like many apps do. That's the primary way we make money. We give users loyalty points for playing the game, they can cash those out for a very small amount of Bitcoin that is it.

Is your "primary" way the only way you make money through the app, or is there a secondary mechanism for making money through it?

Right now the other source is Coinbase referrals -- they have a referral program for new users that we onboard. You can google it to see how it works.

Is the game skill-based (poker) or luck-based (slot machine RNG)?

The game is a mix of skill and luck. The reward is not affected by your game performance —- win or lose you receive the same loyalty points. Thats what makes it neither a game of skill or gambling.
