# Coin types

The game economy features multiple coin types to separate gameplay progression from our crypto token.\
There will likely be an in-game currency (Gold Coin) earned from quests and NPC trades, used for things like repairing equipment or buying basic items from NPCs. Gold coin is *off-chain* and exists to facilitate the day-to-day transactions and sinks.\
On the other hand, $STOOPID token is the blockchain currency for special transactions (buying NFTs, governance, etc. – detailed in the next section).\
This two-currency system (plus potentially a premium currency or clan currency) ensures that casual economy and crypto economy are balanced. Players who aren’t into crypto can play entirely with Gold and items, while hardcore players can use $STOOPID for higher-level economic activities.\
It prevents inflation of the token by not tying every little action to it, while still connecting the two economies at certain points (like trading Gold for token or using token to buy a top-tier item).
