The Golden Bloon is an event-exclusive type of Bloon in the mobile version of Bloons TD 5. When the event is active, the Golden Bloon only appears on one track at a time (indicated by a Golden Bloon icon), and on that track, it appears once on a random round from 30 to 40 inclusive. It moves in the reverse direction of other Bloons (meaning it spawns from the exit normally, or from the entrance on Reverse). It has the properties of a Camo Bloon, Lead Bloon, and Ceramic Bloon (and thus takes extra "juggernaut damage"), and it moves as fast as a Pink Bloon. It drops bundles of Monkey Money when it takes damage and drops a free Special Agent if it is destroyed, which the player can collect; Banana Farmers cannot collect them. Leaking a Golden Bloon does not cost any lives.

The Golden Bloon appears on the following tracks in order. After the Golden Bloon is encountered, it will disappear from the track selection screen, then reappear on the next track in sequence after one hour, regardless of if it was popped, if it escaped, or if the player quits or restarts.

The value of each Monkey Money bundle it drops is random, but the total amount of money dropped when it is fully popped always adds up to a specific amount. On higher difficulties, it drops more Monkey Money and can drop more expensive Special Agents. In the desktop releases, the Monkey Money amounts are doubled.

Although the Golden Bloon's various properties can be difficult, an easy way is to place a Spiked Ball Factory at the back of the track.

↑Internally, the Golden Bloon is treated as having 300 RBE, but this has no significance in normal gameplay other than determining its priority for Strong targeting.
