This suggestion is for a feature similar to the Gem Exchange, but solely for Nugget-PD and PD-Nugget trades. With this feature, Nuggets would no longer be sellable on the GTS Item Market. This means that Nuggets will no longer be labelled as “cheap”/“fair”/“expensive”; users will decide on a “fair” price themselves.

The “Currency Exchange” would be located in the GTS.

Visuals:


Usernames would be displayed, unlike the Item Market, to discourage buying and reselling for profit.

A user would only be able to have one exchange up at a time. This is again, to prevent reselling, but also helps reduce spam (you have to delete your old exchange in order to set up a new one).
When trying to create a second exchange:
- if it is different to your current exchange, an error message would be displayed
- if the PD and Nugget amounts are the same as your current exchange, it would be added to your current exchange (increasing the # available) [this would not bump the exchange]

PD taxes would still apply at a 5% rate:
- when selling Nuggets in a new exchange, you'd be taxed when claiming PD [from the exchange page], similar to Item Market
- when buying Nuggets in a new exchange, you'd be taxed when setting up the exchange, similar to the GTS
This also means you're discouraged from setting up new exchanges, and should check for any existing exchanges first.
(Or any combination of the opposites, to make it so the buyer is always taxed, or the seller is always taxed:
- when selling Nuggets in an existing exchange, you're taxed upon clicking exchange
- when buying Nuggets in an existing exchange, you're taxed after the exchange, upon claiming PD from the main exchange page)

Users should be able to choose how many Nuggets they want to exchange at once; some users like to keep theirs as a multiple of 2/5/10. For example, in the first visual, Bokuto is buying Nuggets in sets of 5, Jacharias is selling them in sets of 10.

The minimum trade amount for Nuggets would still be 50. Like the Item Market, you'd have to leave at least 50 Nuggets behind, or buy all of them.

Exchanges would expire after a certain period of time (1 month?), to again, reduce the number of (unfair) trades.

Note: I am not suggesting a feature that automatically converts your Nuggets to PD or vice versa; these trades are still between users; it just offers a separate area for them to take place.

Thread has received Mod approval and is now open for discussion.

I actually support this idea and would actually use it.

Plus, it would also solve the whole ordeal with Nuggets being overpriced by users in the GTS. Especially if this idea is implemented with it's own exchange system like they already have with Gems.

Would definitely be great to have something like this, it would also be WAY easy to convert PD to Nuggets and visa versa.
