GM Pixels fam!
I have an idea to help with the inflation of certain in-game items, the longevity, and the balance of the economy!
I think most items need an expiration date. I won't mention industry kits and tools in this post because I think this is in the works with a decay system. I think we should consider adding more items to the decay system, like popberries or any crop we farm, Every item can have their own expiration date.. This will add new dynamics to the game that will help move items instead of being stored long-term by whales.
If the whales want to store something for long-time we can have a special storage system that is only obtainable with $PIXEL. Like a Fridge, this does not guaranteed to be able to store for the eternity but for a longer time (like a year)
An addition to this could be a recycling industry. Like fertilizer, we could use rotten items to get other things in exchange. I think it would be interesting to get non-tradable items (to stop the cycle there) and even something equivalent to loot boxes, where you could get a rare item (ideally a non-tradable cosmetic) by burning lots of low-demand items.
This additional sink could be another help to the Taskboard sink. The difference would be that it gives items (ideally non-tradable cosmetic items) instead of coins or $PIXEL.
