assessments

ACTEC Trust And Estate Talk features video games and money laundering. Nancy Crow, an ACTEC Fellow, from Denver, talks about the complexities and how virtual currencies have become a lucrative way to make money. Video games, she explains, have been a prime source of income for many money launderers. But what exactly are the benefits and costs of each of these currencies? We also discuss Coin manipulatives.

Soft currency

In addition to monetary symbols, the game should also have soft currency. Soft currency is earned through gameplay and should be able to be spent on a wide variety of items, consumables, upgrades, and other content. You can also purchase soft currency at a special shop. The amount of soft currencies a player may buy will depend on the game's goals, as well the bank balance.

Hard currency

The in-game economy is based on two distinct types of money: soft currency and hard currency. You can purchase soft currency by paying users. Hard currency can only be obtained from in-game activities. Soft currency can be used for purchasing items as the title suggests. It is possible to earn soft currency through daily activities. For example, players can earn coins by selling products from their farms. Soft currency can also be bought from a dedicated shop.


Event currency

Some games have regular money. Other games use event currency. Event currencies can increase your game’s economy and reward participants for participating in the events. There are several types of event currencies: time-limited currency and monthly currency. Below we'll take a look at each of these. Below are examples of event currencies being used in games. If you're wondering how to get them, read on.

Coin manipulatives

The use of coin manipulatives helps children to learn the values of different coins. They can practice counting pennies (ninths, dimes, or quarters) and can compare the value of coins to real-life prices. Children learn to handle currency by putting coins in the designated slots. This is an excellent way for children to learn counting. They can also use this as a foundation in math lessons. Below are some games that make use of coin manipulatives.
