An interesting bonus both IXCoin and I0Coin turn out to have from being such ancient coins with such ancient association with the
Galactic Milieu...
It turns out that they date back so very very far that they were already in place and set up
before the rule about General Hosting Corp aka Galactic Holding Corp "shares" could only be held by Civilisations.
However it came about, the fact is that both IXCoin and I0Coin have, counting toward their treasuries, one thousand "shares" of GHC each.
As I write this post, the
Latest Rates include-file shows sGHC as worth 355021.13314640 DeVCoins, which by dividing by the shown value of IXCoins, 643.27608417 DVC, comes out to 551.89543320 IXCoins each, or by dividing by the shown value of I0Coins, 692.04160209 DVC, comes out to 513.00547839 I0Coins each.
The benefits though are far more than the simple value added to the treasury, because the implication is that both IXCoin and I0Coin do in fact have at least one "Civilisation" each.
It also means that both are empowered to obtain from General Hosting Corp
MUDgaard player-accounts, and in fact that table of prices for such accounts probably needs to be expanded to show prices in IXCoin and prices in I0Coin.
Basically no-one knows what Civilisation or Civilisations IXCoin and I0Coin are the currencies of, but such Civilisations apparently do exist "out there somewhere".
It also means that the impression generally held that the Ixian family on the MUDgaard server probably got their player-account(s) from the galactic United Nations, is presumably wrong, that in fact they got such account(s) directly themselves.
This information was actually uncovered by followers of
the Flying Spaghetti Monster, the Paladins Noodles and Noodly and the priest Noo, in the course of their own investigations into setting up a Civilisation and/or obtaining MUDgaard player-accounts.
Noo is currently seeking to make contact on the Crossfire-RPG Play-to-Earn server (Server1.Knotwork.net) with the quetzalcoatl Ixi, the Ixian representative on that server, both to broach the idea that Ixalovh (The Noodly One's name on that world apparently) would be a good official deity for the Ixians and to see about obtaining, through the Ixians, a MUDgaard player-account.
