BitLife: How to Become a Kingpin or Queenpin

The ranking system for a cartel looks like this: dealer > runner > manufacturer > lieutenant > Kingpin/Queenpin. Basically, you want to keep your performance high in each role by keeping control over your turf and performing the primary duty (dealing, supply runs, etc.) associated with your role. It can take several years to climb through each rank, but it helps to have a good reputation with other cartel members and always contribute the full amount from your sales to the cartel. You need to keep your standing as high as possible.

BitLife: How to Use a Mutiny to Oust the Kingpin or Queenpin

Although you can go from lieutenant to Kingpin overtime with a promotion, there’s another option that speeds up the process. If you go to Job > Dealer > Mutiny and successfully pull it off, then you become the next Kingpin.

However, it doesn’t always work. I had the most success with stealing clientele as a mutiny method, and the Kingpin left on their own as a result. In my case, the threat option didn’t work, but I can’t say with certainty that it’s not simply due to RNG. Additionally, you can use the Assassin’s Blade for guaranteed success.

And that’s how to become a Kingpin in BitLife. While it sounds straightforward on the surface, there are a lot of factors to consider while rising through the ranks. Plus, the risk of ending up in jail at any point from being part of a cartel is high, especially if the Kingpin wants you to take the fall for somebody else.
