Another week passed since the series of attacks occurred all over the world. And while no battles have happened ever since that time, the world had changed significantly. Currency had already changed.
As the world fell into a near-war state, trade was the first thing to be greatly affected. If the previous band of the WGP had created complications, it had not affected trade as a whole. But now, governments were preventing the corporations in their country from conducting trade with certain countries.
Credits became the standard value used as many countries were following Pangea's move of switching to Credits as a form of currency. The WGP also accepted credits for trade.
But in a strange twist of events, various corporations lost billions of credits from various hackers. Before these corporations could even begin to exchange or purchase objects of value that were used in war, they already lost most of their funds.
