As soon as the Beta 0.2 version update announcement was released, Wasteland Online's official forum instantly exploded with discussions!

Beta 0.1 version had only been online for a week, receiving just 4 batches of new players, but the development team had already released the next version!

The players who were already used to Light’s slow progress were completely shocked by the sudden change.

When did the damn dev become so diligent?!

Additionally, the shocking information released in the update caused the eyeballs of nearly everyone to pop out of their eye sockets.

The official silver coins trading platform is online!

Silver coins be traded with real money now?!

Tail: Holy shit! Can I buy silver coins now?!!!!∑(ﾟДﾟノ)ノ

Yaya: Finally! This function has finally been developed! I've been waiting for this since the alpha version. Thank you devs! You da best! (T▽T)

Quit Smoking: Official silver coins trading platform!? Brother Light is awesome! (Screaming)

Silver's Father: Hahahaha, this function is finally here! House of Silver is buying silver coins! 2RMB each! Hurry up if you want to buy!

Irene: You think anyone will fall for that? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Face Sitting Dragon: I'm buying silver coins. I'm buying silver coins. Is there any big brother who wants to trade? I can offer 4 USD each!

Lightning_emperor_professor_yang: dude, do you even have the qualification to play the game?

Face Sitting Dragon: Can't you read? The instructions of the trading platform say that you can trade without the qualification of closed beta testing!

King's Aura: I'll buy 1000 silver coins first, and I can offer 100 RMB each! I’m doing it for no other reason than to support my dream. Anyway, gamers will always be exploited by game companies, at least the game promotional videos of Wasteland Online is satisfying to watch.

Donkey Rider: I offer 1000!!

Night Ten: Oh damn, are you all so rich?!

It was different from previous updates.

This time, Light did not write any Development Log after the version update, but just posted a guide for using the silver coins transaction function of the official website on the forum.

[1. Silver coins (NF Coin) can be transferred in the forum's private message interface, and can be traded with any currency or virtual asset in the forum’s [Trading Section]. Whether it is a digital currency or sovereign national currency, or other forms of assets, as long as both parties have no objections, it can even be settled with the coins in other games.]

[2. Wasteland OnlineTM only provides transaction channels and recognizes the legitimacy of official channel transactions. The specific payment process will need to use third-party payment tools. It can be a bank card or a bitcoin wallet, see Article 4 for specific instructions.]

[3. Silver Coins transactions will be carried out in the form of listed transactions, with the minimum amount of 1 silver coin. Players can freely set the price and currency, and provide a clear payment account number. The pending order will be classified and displayed in the [Trading Section] of the forum. The silver coins in the listing will be temporarily frozen until the order is voluntarily withdrawn or the pending order is filled.]

[4. The buyer needs to complete the payment as soon as possible after buying the silver coins. The transaction is only deemed to be completed after the seller provides the transaction account number and confirms the receipt. If the seller does not dispose of the transaction within 24 hours after the completion of the payment or if there is a dispute, the buyer can upload the payment receipt and apply for official intervention and arbitration, and Wasteland OnlineTM will decide whether the transaction is successful after verification by "special means".]

[5. Players who have not qualified for the closed test can also participate in the transaction, but only after the closed test is qualified and the VM is unlocked can the forum assets be synchronized to the game, otherwise the silver coins obtained can only be traded in the forum.]

[6. A reputation system will be added to the homepage of the player’s forum account, and the reputation value will be deducted for breach of contract, reputation farming, etc. If the reputation value is lower than 80, you will not be able to participate in the transaction. This forum implements a one-person-one-account system, please cherish your account, and don't try to play some silly tricks.]

[7. The transaction will be unilaterally charged with a 5% transaction tax, which is only for the listing party and will be collected in the form of silver coins after the transaction. For example: If Player A places an order of 1 silver coin on the forum, 1.05 silver coins will be frozen. After the transaction, player B will receive 1 silver coin, and 0.05 silver coin will be taken back by Wasteland Online as a transaction tax.]

[8....]

[101. Transactions must be conducted under the principles of public order and good customs. Wasteland OnlineTM has the final right to interpret each clause, and will impose firm penalties on violations.]

There were many specific trading rules.

Like the user terms of conditions of most games, regardless of whether they were useful or not, Chu Guang added everything.

Actually... Most players only needed to understand the first seven rules, and the rest were supplements to the rules and listing violations.

From the perspective of usage rules, the official silver coins trading platform launched by Wasteland Online only provided players with a channel to trade virtual assets.

Analogous to other MMORPGs, it was equivalent to the Silver Coins consignment function.

The only difference was that Wasteland Online did not have a paid premium content function, nor did it have a subscription fee. Players had to decide what kind of out-of-game assets to exchange silver coins for.

As long as someone was willing to pay, the coins could be transacted.

The company of Wasteland Online seemed to have no intention of making any money off players. Let alone subscription fees, even the handling fees were paid in silver coins.

That made many people confused.

Has the company of this game not considered making money?

Which legitimate company would let players get all the benefits?

But what shocked people, even more, was yet to come.

Less than five minutes after the Beta 0.2 version was launched, the first pending order soon appeared at the top of the trading interface.

[Sell order: 1 silver coin]

[Price: 1 BTC]

Sisi: ... How much is one BTC? (Nervous)

Gale: Tens of thousands of dollars on the high end and just a few thousand on the low end, I guess?? I'm not very interested in this, so I’m not very clear about it. But Ample Time knows that better, you can ask him.

Lightning_emperor_professor_yang: This is madness! 1 silver coin for 1 BTC?! Only a fool would buy it!

Although Professor Yang had never entered the game, as a senior cloud gamer, his understanding of the game was so much better than those of the newbies who had just obtained the beta test qualification.

Some newcomers still hadn't even figured out what the map of the New Alliance looked like. But Professor Yang could clearly remember how many towers were built and how many cannons were placed on the north side of Remote Creek Town in the borderland of the New Alliance.

Whether it was the battle reports of large battles or the affairs between the administrator and the Weapon Shop Owner, this guy could describe it in such details that it was as if he had seen it in person.

After all, he was a man who spent 16 hours a day on the forum.

If it weren't for the lack of a logo behind his account, ordinary newbies really wouldn't be able to tell whether the guy was an actual in-game player or not.

Other cloud gamers may not know the value of a silver coin, but Professor Yang knew it very well.

It couldn't even buy a bowl of ramen in the game!

To be more precise, the player could only buy one-sixth of a bowl!

Moreover, as soon as a new player entered the game, they would be given a novice gift pack containing 5 silver coins, and they could easily make 3 to 5 silver coins from a newbie mission.

1 silver coin for 1 BTC?!

What kind of an international joke was this?!
