Money, Cash and Credit Cards - schlurbi - 12-30-2009
Today we have the good old Cash, Papers and Metal and we got the new Digital Money which you will never be able to touch, maybe your Credit Card.
Money in Sirius, does cash in the form we have still exist? Or is everything going over Credit Cards and the Neural Net?

I miss the 100k, 1 million, 10 millions and 100 millions credits cards.

I'd think everything would go through the neural net considering its just easier and more convinient that way.
Money, Cash and Credit Cards - Bobthemanofsteel - 12-30-2009
It would make sense that everything would be linked to the Neural Net somehow.
Then again, this being the human race, I'm not sure whether we'd ever give up the powerful feeling of holding a wad of cash in your hand. Or the usefulness of spare change XD
So I think it's safe to say a bit of both. Money still exists, in coin form at least. Any of the larger amounts get Electronicamafied.
IMHO

I doubt credits exist in touchable form. Best bet is those hand held things like they have in I robot with will smith

It doesn't make too much sense the money system...
So every house uses the same currency?
Even criminal groups like the Hackers use them?
Why do the Hispanians use them? Surely they must have their own currency considering they weren't in contact with Sirius for a while..
Gallia? Why do they use them? Considering they haven't been in Sirius much...
Who designed/runs the Neuralnet?
Why does everyone use it?
How comes every faction in Sirius can use it, and not worry about being traced/hacked?
Alot of stuff doesn't make sense, I just go with credit chips for cash, and credit cards for Neuralnet transactions.

Yeah and when anyone gets pirated, he pays via the Neural Net ? That should make very easy to track any pirate, and that is not actually happening.
To make it real, pirates should tax only on goods or actual money, not on credits.....

I think credits do not go via some motherstation. But are trasfered directly. Similiar like coin can he given to the other peep without bank interference.

Do you realise how in some situation it is hard to do. And what about cargo I do not need? Neither my allies need. You do not have Junker base near all the time.

Forging money?
Hacking the Neuralnet?
Mhmm...

I think Agiera designed the Neural Net system, pirates eventually got their hands on through piracy I guess. Its possible there was only a single currency before the exodus from Earth, I mean, in today's world China has already suggested using a single currency, so its possible 'Credits' could date back from Earth.
If not, we pirates got their hands on them, through, well, piracy.
