pUSD and the daily reset

How your pUSD balance works and what happens at 00:00 UTC.

pUSD · paper dollars
In-game play money · 10,000 every day · no monetary value

pUSD (paper dollars) is the in-game currency. Every player gets 10,000 pUSD at the start of each UTC day. It has no monetary value and can't be transferred, bought or sold.

Don't confuse your in-game pUSD balance with the $PAPER token, which launches after Season 1. See $PAPER token.
