Just a thought i had, to maybe help players take a bigger interest in things going on around them.
Stockmarket currency market
So you have some credits and you never thought about where those credits are? Makes sense they should be in some institution like an all galactic bank. How the Alliance, independent, empire and what else manages this bank or if its an independent organisation or whatever we don't know, well i don't know anyway.
I want to break it apart into several smaller currencies, each currency is a measurement of how successful the Alliance in this case is. Think of it as a stock for a company (it's pretty much what a currency is anyway, a stock for a country)
So it is in your best interest to make sure your currency is doing well, if you're holding Alliance credits for example you don't want to go support an imperial invasion of an Alliance system.
If you have any reason to think that The Alliance credit you have your credits in is going to lose some value (because you saw that huge imperial invasion fleet gathering at Blabla) Then maybe you want to invest your credits in something else, maybe Imperial credits or Palladium or buy stock in Hutton truckers, that seems pretty safe or something else.
Lots of possibilities, plenty of chances to make more money or lose it all.
Just as in the real world this can be manipulated ofc but in the bubble that would be difficult since that would take some insane volume to have any effect. Anyway... needs some more thinking, and i think that something like it was on the table at some point
