*Even if it does make Gold from Armored Bloons, it ties with [[Banana Plantation (BCS)|Banana Plantation]] for the lowest amount of Gold made per turn, at 1 Gold per turn, however the Lead to Gold Monkey's Gold gains can be controlled by the player.
*Lead to Gold Monkey does enough damage to one-shot [[Rock Bloon (BCS)|Rock Bloon]]s, and versus Stage 1 [[Dreadbloon (BCS)|Dreadbloon]] (which always gives Armor to Rock Bloons), it is a reliable income source. It can also generate Gold from Dreadbloon itself if it has Armor, even while [[Immunity (card)|Immunity]] is active.

This card originally had 30 ATK and 1 delay, however this was changed to 60 ATK and 2 delay. The first instance of the change was shown when Ninja Kiwi teased Striker Jones playing against Dreadbloon. The old stats were shown in the April 10th 2025 dev diary.<ref name="bcs-april102025" />
