A phenomenon where players are more likely to spend money on microtransactions when the purchases are made using in-game currency rather than akcual currencies. This effect occurs because players perceive in-game currency as less tangible, leading to a diminished sense of spending.
Developers capitalize on the illusory currency effect, knowing players are more willing to splurge on cosmetics and upgrades when they can use in-game coins instead of akcual currencies.

Get the illusory currency effect mug.It's an underrated band formed in 2011. The members are the singer Chrissy Costanza, the guitarist Dan Gow& the drummer Will Ferri. At first, they covered popular songs, mostly with youtubers like Alex Goot or also with Set It Off. Then, after they received a small fanbase, ATC released their first original song called "Thinking". They also toured together with bands like Stateside,Set It Off and The Faim. Now, they've got 2 EPs & 2 albums out: The Infinity EP (2014), The Gravity EP (2015), In Our Bones (2017) & Past Lives (2018). The fans are called Outsiders (reference to their song "Outsider") but also ATC Fam. I could go on talking about them for years but just check them out, they deserve way more appreciation!!
