During the past 18 months the value of L$ has decreased a lot. If this trend continues it poses a serious issue for ME!

To address this, I have designed an alternative currency for transactions in SL, currently refered to as "NYX$". Most components are already in place since 2 minutes ago and functional (or so I hope, noone has been stu....err I mean 'farsighted' enough to invest).

Features of this currency system:

~ Value backed by the lint under my kids bed held by ME...CEO of Nyx Rox Ltd.
~ Central payment server that 'SEEMINGLY' ties into content vendor devices in Second Life
~ Full integration with Second Life land sale system as long as you are buying from ME....Nyx of Nyx Rox Ltd.
~ Full guarantee from Paypal that I WILL get your money
~ Web interface and integration with my shop
~ Online currency exchange market vs. US$, LIN(lint) and WoW Gold

Since I have every intention of burying Linden Labs I will post my new currency proposal here and have all my 'alts' and friends/employees (here to after referred to as 'flying monkeys') post in support of this.

Wonderful. There must be at least $50 worth of currency in the tumble drier and under my bed.

I'm sorry Lewis but that's YOUR lint not MY lint and thus has no value.

Awwwww! I wish I had known you were gonna do this! I just converted all my L$ to A$$

Perhaps you should consider a business merger. I think there would be a market for NYX$A$$

What about the NYX$FOO$A$$ we can maintain the value of the currency with lint, yen, and old euro.

Excellent! I hate to see Nyx taking all the risk with NYX$A$$ on the market!

I just finished consolodating - I got put all my L$ in A$$ - but when I tried to 'move the market' I found out I'd stalled with a full load in A$$!! Now my A$$ is stuck!

I tried putting my A$$ on market - but no buyers :(

Maybe if I wait it out and get some liquidity my A$$ will move again....

I just put all my L$ in MY A$$. I wanted to put it in Siggy's A$$ but was chagrined to find that he had sold his A$$. I hope they don't find it :(

Sorry.....

It's kind of tough when we stand on the verge of our currency being totally converted to A$$

Nyx, how do we know for certain you won't just print more NYX$ than you have lint? I think this entire thing is a Ponzi scheme, and would collapse if we all demanded our lint back at once!

I highly doubt A$$ wil fly at all. I would never exchange my L$ for anything other than US$. So your saying I convert all my L$ to A$$ which I sell for Euro which I have to then convert to US$?????

So instead of one fluctuating market, we have 3! lol

I'm sorry, but I really have to just sit back and laugh my ass off about everything that is going on here in SL now with all of the forum postings and A$$ ideas and stuff. This is a marked point on the SL history timeline. when Anshe tried to take over the SL currency by manipulating the market. Lets all jump in lol roflmao.

Why...you wound me to the core, how can you question my motives and morals when mere 'lint' is involved?

Of course, if I get involved, instead of A$$ we could use AS$...
