Just because I can exchange Chuck-E-Cheese coins or WoW gold for certain specific goods and/or services doesn't make them fiat.
- SideburnsOfDoom 9y ago> Just because I can exchange Chuck-E-Cheese coins ... for certain specific goods and/or services doesn't make them fiat. So what does it make them then? As far as I know, the categories are "fiat" or "commodity-backed". If it's not Fiat, which commodity backs Chuck-E-Cheese coins? Or is it merely backed by the say-so of the Chuck-E-Cheese company? You understand that "say-so" in Latin is "fiat"? Isn't this just a form of "Company Scrip", a (low quality) Fiat instrument? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Company_scrip https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Company_scrip https://thebluecollareconomist.com/2016/10/30/fiat-currency-scrip-by-another-name/ https://thebluecollareconomist.com/2016/10/30/fiat-currency-...
