have you looked into World Shards? It is quite fun to play and has a few of the mecahnics built in. Refining loot to get different items and potions is at the base level of this game. We will see if it goes ponzi or not. I just value my time more than to dlay monsters over and over just to be able to build a furnace in my house…
The loot you find van be traded p2p drop rates are quite low though. No bind for weapons but weapons break and have to be reproduced which needs resources as well.
Did not do any research if and when they plan to drop a currency but it is likely they will.
Thanks for this Hame economy 101 it qas an interesting read!
