Bloons Card Storm

When the player plays a Bloon card, that player's Hero gains Bloontonium equal to the amount of gold spent to play the Bloon. This is affected by card effects that alter a Bloon card's Gold cost, such as the Discount Bloon and Setup Bloon's effects.

Unspent bloontonium carries over between turns, and maximum bloontonium capacity varies between heroes. The player cannot have more bloontonium than their hero's max amount of bloontonium no matter what. Bloontonium is not consumed if an ability cannot be used manually, but it will be consumed upon using an activated ability.

Bloons Pop!

Bloontonium is a currency earned by completing levels, by clearing bloons and popping Bloontonium Bloons in Golden Bloon Time, completing certain Goals, or from certain Adventure rewards. Bloontonium's sole purpose is filling up Bloontonium canisters, which upon reaching 500 bloontonium, will take 4 hours before producing a random amount of Bloonstones. One canister is unlocked immediately, another requires 400 Monkey Money, and the final canister requires a purchase with real money.
