The cronodollar is the universal unit of currency. It is usually shortened to crono, pronounced crō'-nō.

The currency symbol is ¢. e.g. The eggs cost 35¢ each.

The value of one cronodollar is equivalent to one time unit of labor. When a person or citizen applies labor to a construction or manufacturing process, they are paid the number of cronodollars equivalent to the amount of labor applied.

The nominal prices of all commodities are based on the cost of the labor and commodities required to manufacture them.

Cronodollars are manufactured in the machine shop or at a bank using gold.

Bank

A bank is required to hold money in a city. All cities start with no money, so the city must first manufacture bullion or import from other cities. This in turn allows the city to buy goods from an avatar, and pay the avatar earned money by redeeming government debt.
