this is a good point. but how do servers with economy plugins manage that, in contrast? theoretically it should be similar no? people continue racking up more and more balance over time

How to establish a thriving diamond-based economy?

I am genuinely interested in how people can think a virtual economy doesn’t suffer from duping or inflates even quicker because virtual economies will always suffer from the fact that you can make money passively, you cannot do that with diamonds

one argument could be made that if you tie the value of the currency to something that is not dupable (or tie it to nothing at all, but i fail to see how that would function as a currency) then your virtual currency would... work better? i've no clue, i have never worked with virtual currencies to be frank.

Resource world will definitely make it tougher depending on how often they reset, not sure if you have RTP but adjusting it as time goes on would be a solution. Some servers also have designated areas that gets regenerated on new updates or after set amount of time (months). But honestly depending on how your resource worlds are I wouldn’t be too worried honestly. But it all depends on player base and type of server.

What style server is it? And what size of world do you have? I honestly dont think it will be a big issue, from personal experience.

yep, that makes sense... we don't have RTP btw, and the plan for the resource world is to have a portal at spawn that people can walk through. the server is a "no teleports, no landclaims" server with a trust-based (whitelisted, apply to join) environment. we've been up for 10 months, but for many reasons we decided to reset. we want to make this new world last as long as we can, hopefully go for many years to come. one of the many issues we encountered was with the economy / shopping district, which is why i want to set it right from the start. world size will be 40k x 40k (same size as the old world) and im thinking the resource world could be 3k in each direction (6k x 6k)

How to establish a thriving diamond-based economy?

the resource world would serve to reduce the friction for new players who join 1 year after world start, so they dont have to walk 4k blocks just to go mining. that same "reduce the friction" however, also has the risk of inflating the economy so i'm really confused as to how I can balance things out from the start.

How to establish a thriving diamond-based economy?

that's exactly how I feel about this. @Naeso 's point about the duped items is true, the risk is there. but I'm personally against using an economy plugin, that was never even an option in the first place (still isn't). my only worry about the diamond economy is... hypothetically, if I do a "resource world", people will get diamonds very quickly its value will deflate as more and more resource worlds get reset after many months

How to establish a thriving diamond-based economy?

will just stop using your economy and just trade items instead

please elaborate? if there's a common item that a player knows is used by everyone else for every other transaction, why wouldn't they use it?

How to establish a thriving diamond-based economy?

it will be inflated in a few weeks (maybe a month or two) yes, but that's where the economy is established no? you wouldn't gauge the value of the diamond based on day 1 value surely

For every user in an /team (Vanilla minecraft teams system), restrict access to /msg

can't answer with 100% certainty, but by the looks of it you can use luckperms permissions with context: https://luckperms.net/wiki/Context looks like you'll need ExtraContexts for the "team" context to work with luckperms though https://github.com/LuckPerms/ExtraContexts?tab=readme-ov-file#team

Searching for monetization plugin (like tebex) with custom gateaway

imo paypal and credit/debit cards should be sufficient for most adults but if you want to use things like qris/gopay/ovo/dll your best bet would be using Midtrans or Flip for Business and then building your own mc integration using their API
