Is there a good blog post that studies all the various currency systems inside of video games?
Don't know of one, but I've always found that an interesting area of study. I remember in Diablo 2 gold got over-inflated and a popular item (Stone of Jordan ring) which almost every character needed became the de facto currency. http://diablo.blizzpro.com/2014/07/18/guest-post-stone-jordan/ …pic.twitter.com/JJHEPnuSk0

It seems like currency without any functional utility in the real world is almost a luxury... an unstable equilibrium, ultimately temporary.

I think that shell money, which afaik has no functional utility besides showing status if worn as a necklace, was a permanent solution for a lot of civilizations: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_money …
