How to make a “government treasury” using virtual economy
Hi all. I had an idea I got while reading the documentation on the Villager Market plugin. It mentioned something about server taxes but didn’t elaborate at all. I believe that several things I want to implement on my server such as shops that sell villager market eggs and other rare/unobtainable items shouldn’t have profits that go to me, but go to a separate “server fund.” For context I use essentialsX and vault for the economy. I thought about also renting out shops using villager market and having that money go to the server fund as well, and having public auctions. I actually want to be a part of the economy, so I haven’t set up any admin shops and have been actually buying and selling like other players, so I don’t want to ruin my integrity by having players only pay me for server-related stuff.
Tl;dr: need a way to set up a server fund, i.e. a separate balance for admins only that can be used to pay players or collect taxes. Is an alt account the only way to do this? I don’t want to buy Minecraft again.

i'd say yes u would probably need a seperate account, altough u could use xbox gamepass trials to make it alot cheaper
especially if u only need it for a few months
Hmm good idea. I should’ve mentioned Im on Java but do use geyser so this would be possible. Thanks.
If anyone has another solution, other than buying an alt account, I would love to hear it. I asked ChatGPT and it said to use vault to create the account which seems to have worked, now I need to configure permissions to use it, as well as figure out how to pay people or collect payment with it. If anyone has any tips I’m all ears
