Abstract:
System and methods are provided for effecting user experience in an electronic environment through use of virtual currency or vCoins. The vCoins may be traded for cash or other forms of games, prizes or non-cash goods or services. A vCoin will typically be a multiplier times the corresponding numeric monetary value. The multiplier may be fixed over time, or it may vary based on factors, such as time or status. A processor is coupled to the memory for generating game play information, preferably including game play with virtual money. The virtual money is acquired through game play or cash purchase.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for effecting trading of currency, both real money and virtual currency, in a multiple user environment, each user having an associated account with the system, over a communications network between the multiple users of the system at one or more distributed locations, the users utilizing display enabled devices including memory adapted to receive and store a program from the system, comprising:\n a system interface for receiving communications from and sending communications to the display enabled devices of the users of the system, a display system for generating graphical user interfaces for at least:\n sending communications regarding the trading of the currency, the display having at least some common portion among the multiple users for all of the display enabled devices of the users, and \n a registration interface to receive user identification, including at least an e-mail address, and system to verify user identification, the registration interface providing a user account, \n account memory storing information on user accounts, the information including registration information and input received from the user including an amount of currency to be converted to virtual currency and account display information for output to the user of the amount of virtual currency in the user account, an input to receive a communication corresponding to the funding of the account, virtual currency multiplier memory for storing a multiplier factor to generate a calculated amount of virtual currency based on the amount of currency to be converted, an encryption unit, a processor coupled to the account memory and the virtual currency multiplier memory,\n (1) the processor multiplying the amount of currency to be converted times the multiplier factor, resulting in a corresponding amount of virtual currency, \n (2) the amount of virtual currency being stored in the account memory, \n (3) the virtual currency being tradable between user accounts, and \n (4) the encryption unit providing an encrypted number regarding the account and providing the encrypted number through the system interface to the user display enabled device.
