During our Settlers of Kalguur livestream we revealed the new Currency Exchange Market. Before it opens up, we wanted to walk you through the basics.

    I’m glad to see this happening finally. I hope it works out well.

    This is probably the biggest change the game had in a long time. Chris was categorically against it for so long that I lost hope it will ever get implemented. But now that Chris stepped down from PoE decision-making (he’s focused on PoE 2 now) and Mark has final authority, we are seeing a lot more experimentation and quality of life that was rejected for years.

    You can read Chris trade manifesto for contrast.

    I still think that full auction house is a bad idea, but this will save hours upon hours of time and frustration. It also increases the pool by a large margin, both from people that never traded before and from including all offline players.

      Jonathan has mentioned during a PoE 2-related interview that it’ll have instant buyout trades with a gold fee, so this looks like some of that backported to 1. He said they still want trading to be inefficient, so they’re just moving that inefficiency into gold.
