Update 61 is the largest content drop Steal a Brainrot has had in months. It added the Bee Event and its honey-based merchant, retired Los Traders in favour of the new RNG Machine, introduced three bee traits, and shipped fourteen new brainrots — twelve of them Secret rarity. This page lists every one of them with the two numbers the wiki actually documents: what the brainrot costs to buy in-game, and what it earns per second. It does not give you trade values, and the section below explains exactly why not.
What Update 61 Changed
- The Bee Event went live on 8 August 2026. Its end date has not been announced.
- A bee merchant appeared, selling brainrots for honey drops rather than cash.
- Three new bee traits were added — Base Bee, Fire Bee, and Ice Bee — each applying a different multiplier when a bee strikes a brainrot.
- A fourth trait, Queen Bee, hits only a single brainrot for the whole event.
- Los Traders was discontinued and replaced by the RNG Machine.
- Fourteen new brainrots entered the game, twelve of them at Secret rarity.
Why this update matters more than the last few
- ✓Twelve new Secret-rarity brainrots in one update is a large supply shock at the top of the ladder — that is where most high-stakes trading happens.
- ✓A honey currency means the usual "how much cash did this cost" comparison does not apply to five of them.
- ✓Losing Los Traders removes a fixed reference point traders had been using to sanity-check offers.
All 14 New Brainrots
Sorted by in-game cost, lowest to highest. Both columns come from each brainrot's own wiki infobox, read on 14 August 2026. Income is passive earnings per second while the brainrot sits in your base.
| Brainrot | Rarity | In-game cost | Income/sec |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tic Tic Ribbit | Mythic | $6.2M | $18.7K/s |
| Quackalena | Brainrot God | $46.5M | $265K/s |
| Gelatina Volatina | Secret | $590M | $2.4M/s |
| Conetto Morsetto | Secret | $1.5B | $10M/s |
| Pogo Pogo Penguin | Secret | $1.75B | $12.5M/s |
| Peschito Machito | Secret | $2.8B | $19M/s |
| Honey Honey Bear | Secret | $4B | $32M/s |
| Scorpino Coasterino | Secret | $9.2B | $47.5M/s |
| Polaroidini | Secret | $12.5B | $55M/s |
| Queen Bee | Secret | $15.5B | $65M/s |
| S'more Serat | Secret | $25.5B | $85M/s |
| Yetimatic | Secret | $27.5B | $87.5M/s |
| La Breakfast Combinasion | Secret | $130B | $165M/s |
| Bumbatron | Secret | $140B | $172.5M/s |
Cost and income scale together but not proportionally. Bumbatron costs roughly 23× what Queen Bee costs while earning only about 2.7× as much per second. If you are buying purely for income, the cheaper end of this table pays back far faster.
The Honey Shop
Five of the fourteen are bought from the bee merchant with honey drops instead of cash. Honey is earned during the event, so these five are effectively time-gated rather than wealth-gated — a low-cash player who grinds the event can obtain them, and a rich player who ignores it cannot.
| Brainrot | Honey cost | Income/sec |
|---|---|---|
| Conetto Morsetto | 20 | $10M/s |
| Honey Honey Bear | 40 | $32.5M/s |
| Queen Bee | 100 | $65M/s |
| S'more Serat | 200 | $85M/s |
| Bumbatron | 400 | $172.5M/s |
The Bee Event has no announced end date. Event-gated brainrots historically stop being obtainable the moment the event closes, and that is usually when their trade value moves most sharply. Do not assume today's availability holds next week.
The Three Bee Traits
During the event, bees strike brainrots and apply a trait. Base Bee, Fire Bee, and Ice Bee each carry a different multiplier. Queen Bee is the outlier: it hits exactly one brainrot for the entire duration of the event.
One Queen Bee brainrot will exist per event
A trait that applies to a single brainrot across an entire event window is the rarest kind of modifier this game produces. If you are offered a Queen Bee brainrot in a trade, that scarcity is real — but scarcity alone does not tell you the price, and nobody has enough completed trades yet to establish one.
The published multiplier values for Fire Bee and Ice Bee are not documented consistently across sources yet, so we are not printing numbers we cannot stand behind. When the wiki settles on them, they will appear on our mutation coverage.
Los Traders Is Gone — The RNG Machine Replaced It
Update 61 discontinued Los Traders and put the RNG Machine in its place. The RNG Machine is a gambling mechanic: you spend to roll, and the pool spans Common all the way up to OG. It currently holds 28 brainrots, and it can be upgraded, with the highest upgrade tier locked behind MAX rebirth.
The published odds are still unknown. The wiki lists relative chance figures per brainrot but explicitly notes the real rates have not been confirmed by the developer. Treat any site quoting exact RNG Machine percentages as unverified.
The pool includes Secret Lucky Block and Brainrot God Lucky Block, whose income is listed as "Depends" because the payout is itself randomised. Rolling for a Lucky Block is therefore two layers of chance stacked, which is worth remembering before you commit currency to it.
Why We Have Not Published Trade Values for These
You will notice this article gives you cost and income but no trade value, and none of these fourteen have item pages on this site yet. That is deliberate, and it is worth explaining because most sites will happily invent a number here.
We tested whether trade value can be derived from in-game cost. Across a 30-item sample spanning every rarity in our database, the ratio of trade value to in-game cost ranged from 0.0008 to 0.045 — a spread of roughly 56× — and it varied systematically by rarity rather than randomly. In other words, cost does not predict value, and neither does income per second. Publishing a value derived from either would be a guess wearing a decimal point.
What has to be true before these get item pages
- ✓A trade-value source we can cite, not a cost figure relabelled as a value.
- ✓Enough completed community trades that a consensus price exists rather than a handful of outlier offers.
- ✓A value that sits sensibly on the same scale as the 132 items already in our database.
All fourteen Update 61 brainrots are tracked but unpriced. They will get item pages when a defensible trade-value source exists, and not before. Until then, treat any value you see quoted for Bumbatron, Queen Bee, or the rest as unverified.
Frequently Asked Questions
When does the Bee Event end?
No end date has been announced. The event started on 8 August 2026 and the wiki lists its end as TBA. If you want the honey-shop brainrots, grinding sooner is safer than waiting.
Which Update 61 brainrot earns the most?
Bumbatron, at $172.5M per second, followed by La Breakfast Combinasion at $165M per second. Bumbatron is also the most expensive of the honey-shop items at 400 honey.
Is Queen Bee the same as the Queen Bee trait?
No, and the naming is genuinely confusing. Queen Bee is a Secret-rarity brainrot sold for 100 honey. The Queen Bee trait is a separate modifier that lands on exactly one brainrot per event, and it can land on a brainrot that is not Queen Bee.
Can I still use Los Traders?
No. It was discontinued in Update 61 and replaced by the RNG Machine. Any guide still routing you through Los Traders is out of date.
Where did these numbers come from?
Each brainrot's own page on the Steal a Brainrot wiki, cross-checked against the Update 61 log and the Bee Event page, all read on 14 August 2026. Where sources disagreed by a rounding step we used the infobox figure.
Event content moves fast. Costs, income, traits, and availability can all change inside a single patch, and this snapshot reflects what could be confirmed on 14 August 2026. Check the item pages for current figures before committing to a trade.
