lol. I actually clicked the link and looked at it and said, "WTF, that's not a dev post."


Burned >.<

I don't know how to think about it honestly. It would be typical SE to make the coin important in the future. We have been throwing away or selling beastcoins and now people are holding onto them for relics. I am saving my coin, there isn't anything I need from GC, so I will see what happens in the future.

It really goes either way, but maybe a Dev response could give clarification, unless it is their intent to make us debate about this. If that is the case, good mind game SE.

My guess is that the coin gains in Value over time.

So if you hold the coin till 1.23 it will be worth say 35k.

If you wait till 2.0 it will be worth 40k.

...and so on.

This is kind of backward but related to at least U.S. Navy tradition. i would keep it personally, like my military script from FFXI. though i might see if i could trade it to a NPC Chief or any NCO or enlisted NPC who salutes you.

Tradition is that all new officers are given or must acquire a silver dollar. You give the silver dollar to the first person who salutes you after receiving your commission. My ROTC MCPO had quite a collection of them, being as he was CMC for our NTC.

totally forgot about this.

You guys. You crack me up.

I would just trade it in if you need the seals. SE would have to be huge dicks to allow you to trade the coin in for seals and then introduce something in the future which requires it with no method of re-obtaining it.

People would be in uproar on these forums.

Then you could only blame yourself. SE isn't forcing you to trade the coin, nor do they advertise doing so. What happens is you either save it, or let temptation get you and trade it in. The consequences I guess we will find out in the future.
