I think the 4 different empires should use different currencies. Also, low/nullsec stations should accept only physical currency for trading. They'd trade in all currencies but you would need to convert the ISK to a physical item for trading in those stations, because the SCC couldn't reach them.
This would make the game more exciting because pilots in low/null would need to carry their money if they wanted to trade in those sectors.
There could be value flutuations between the different currencies and taxes to convert between the different currencies. If you carry your money physically converted to stations with currency exchange houses between empires you pay less taxes, so people would risk being ganked to pay less for currency convertion.
I'm excited about this idea. I just tought about it and I think it is great! |

Why would players accept any currency other than whatever the Caldari currency would be, allowing them to trade in Jita and nowhere else?
EvE is hard. It's harder if you're stupid.

It wouldn't be confusing to new players because initially they'd only trade in their original region. What about physical money in low/nullsec?

I'm sure that lore wise each empire, hell maybe even every planet already has their own currency, the point of ISK is to have a centralised currency that everyone can deal in, albiet with highly inflated conversion rates.
Also we have aurum, and a few people already thought that was too much, so any more and everyone's going to be confused and angry, never a good combination in my experience. |

What about the physical currency in low/nullsec? Lorewise it makes sense, because the SCC presence would be much smaller in places where CONCORD doesn't rule. |

No. The market is horrible enough there. Why force you to haul assets just to acquire more assets? Just because you want players to be exposed to more risk just to access those markets, further strangling what trade there is? |

Maybe it could go on a pod wallet, so you only lose it if you get podded? Low/nullsec is supposed to be risky. If you want to trade safely then do it in highsec.

I'm not worried about the risks for myself. I do fine in low and null, thank you very much. I'm worried about the implications for the markets there. Traders are already exposed to the added risks of flying outside of CONCORD protection with full cargos. You're asking them to also risk their empty cargos, effectively doubling the amount of time those assets are exposed.
As if that weren't bad enough, reshipping from local markets during, say, a roam would become a nightmare. You go poof, get your pod out, find a ship on market to get going again... and then find you don't have any local currency? How does that add to game play? With the lower trade volume, why would anyone every stock those markets in the first place? |

CCP is trying to grow the low/null market not kill it

So...you'd know how to deal with four or more separate currencies, physical money and all the rest of it inside of one hour then? Newbies don't stay in one place forever.
Why would anyone want physical money in null? Taxi interceptors are annoying enough as is, why make them utterly mandatory if you ever want to even consider buying anything whatsoever?
Why do you want to gut what little market stuff happens in null? |

I'm sorry Van, but this is a bad idea and doesn't really make any sense. You can instantly communicate across the whole of New Eden, you can even communicate from all the way over in Anoikis, even the most low-tech out of the way station would have a way of checking that you're good for the money.
I'm all for more isk sinks but this would strangle low/null trade. |

Use the search, it is not complex. If you feel you do not have the time, how is it you have time post at all?
