# Macro-Economy & GIP

The game features four asymmetrical native currencies: AuthRight (Dinars), AuthLeft (Collective Labor), LibLeft (Pronouns), and LibRight (Monke)\[cite: 157, 167, 176, 185].

## Global Influence Points (GIP)

GIPs act as the master scoreboard\[cite: 196]. The system strictly enforces a total of 10,000 GIPs across the four quadrants, maintaining a constant mean of 2,500 GIP\[cite: 1051].

## The Rubber-Band Metronome

To prevent a dominant quadrant from running away with the game, the server applies a continuous decay algorithm\[cite: 212, 214].

A Cloud Scheduler cron job fires every minute to execute a 10% decay rate toward the mean\[cite: 1052, 1063]. This forces the leading faction to constantly fight to maintain dominance against the decay\[cite: 217].
