See w:money for more general coverage. We discuss only a few real currency issues here, like:

  • price premium which must be stated usually in real currency terms, requiring some currency conversion, e.g. to multiply a score, or convert some data on real price premiums people or entities with similar buying criteria are willing to pay IRL in another country to avoid doing some damage.

The revert currency probably is not something you can cash out of in real currency, but, eventually, who knows? Credible community currency tends to become convertible, and if wiki ideology is right about wikis being a real community, then, maybe, someday, it'll be real. Game currency in several MMORPGs (and "game goods") have been converted into money often.
