It has its own monetary system and laws that the players themselves influence**. Players use Galactic Quadrants (GQ), the governance token, enabling them to interact with all major cryptocurrencies. The way to acquire tokens is diverse, ranging from **trading items, crafting (or creating) NFTs, selling them, or completing in-game objectives and quests.** Outer Ring has several methods of economic interaction: * **The Marketplace**, where you can directly acquire GQs, or NFTs from the game by purchasing them with other cryptocurrencies through a digital wallet. * **In-game shops**. Run by non-player characters who trade with players. * Direct **in-game purchases**. * **Diverse in-game DEX in different zones** or planets, with liquidity pools filled with in-game resources, with the possibility of purchase, provide liquidity and subsequent arbitrage by the players. * **Player-created shop**s, where players can trade items they have created themselves, directly interacting with other players.
