History

Old Kingdom Uses

During the Old Kingdom, the Slab Exchange was constructed by AE for the purpose of having a central hub for currency and exchange rates. The initial supply of slabs and slablets were given out at some point in late 2022, but they were used primarily to fund the Penta-Village Loop railway around the Five-Village Network. By the time of The Raid, Slabs had not been used in several months.

United Ŋations Era

In the months following the re-accumulation of civilization and the founding of the United Ŋations, speculation of a return to the POS system went around the land. AE distributed Slabs and Slablets to various towns and other locations around the world on 10 March 2024. Evidence of Slab transactions for goods is present within three weeks of this insertion of currency into the market.

Xarslasja established the Great Desert Bank in late March 2024, with the Slab Exchange's Exchange Rate prominently displayed on the Bank's Wall and one stack of grass blocks available for One Slablet. On 1 April 2024, the first transaction took place at the Great Desert Bank: 27 stacks of grass blocks in exchange for 27 Slablets.
