We need a xiv token

A ffxiv token wouldnt work
Gil is worthless and its so easy to get, they would be making no sub money as the average player nowadays has at least 300m or more because even if you had gil cap, theres still nothing to spend your money on

Blizzard makes more money when people utilize the WoW token.
One player pays blizzard $20 for a token, and then trades it to another player for gold, who activates it for $15 worth of subscription time (or store credit).
The quantity of gold exchanged is irrelevant, while Blizzard makes an extra $5 per token overall.

That gil sellers exist indicate that some players do value gil enough to spend real money to get it.
