Economy

Markets in Ashes are regional, which means that each market has its own character. Because resources will shift locations as they’re exhausted, this will keep people moving about the world, seeking out the best resources for their crafting builds, and the best markets for their goods.[1]
Summary:
- There will be no central auction house or warehouse.[1]
- There will be item decay and other ways to combat inflation.[2]
- There will be systems in place to combat botting, gold selling and other things that affect the economy.[3]
- There will be player to player trading.[4]
Marketplaces
Marketplaces are constructed service buildings that are available for placement by mayors of any Town (stage 4) node or higher. These are distinct from a market, which is the unique node building that unlocks at Village (stage 3) of Economic nodes.[5]
- Marketplaces grant certain trade benefits as well as player stalls that the citizens may participate in.[5]
These are buildings that the mayor has agency over determining whether or not they should be a constructed project. Constructible buildings can be selected at open plots that are gained as the as the node advances. If they elect to begin construction of one of these types of buildings- one of which is the marketplace- it'll grant certain trade benefits as well as some stalls that the citizens may participate in.[5] – Steven Sharif
A node's government decides the placement of its marketplace. After that, the community must come together to build it.[5][6]
