From BINS you change the third letter of BINS from N to T to reach BITS, then change the second letter of BITS from I to E to get BETS.
How BITS fits the ladder
Crossclimb stacks 7 words where each one changes a single letter from the word above it. Here's the full ladder for July 20, 2026, with “Tiny pieces, or 0s and 1s in computing” highlighted:
| Rung | Word | Clue |
|---|---|---|
| Top word | BUNK | (unlocks last — fits the letters above the ladder) |
| Clue rung | BANK | Financial institution where checks can be deposited |
| Clue rung | BANS | Declares to be illegal |
| Clue rung | BINS | Containers, as for recycling or dirty laundry |
| Clue rung | BITS ← this clue | Tiny pieces, or 0s and 1s in computing |
| Clue rung | BETS | Makes a wager in a casino |
| Bottom word | BEDS | (unlocks last — fits the letters below the ladder) |
BITS sits at rung 4: from BINS you change the third letter of BINS from N to T to reach BITS, then change the second letter of BITS from I to E to get BETS. Each neighbouring rung is exactly one letter away, which is how you can derive BITS even if the clue alone stumps you — solve a neighbour and the single-letter rule points straight here.
