Guys .. I meant ADDING IT , AND NOT REMOVING GOLD , DIA -_-
It's hard to predict really
I think that a change to ems would be great, but it has down side too
Ups
Solid medium
No uses so only used for currency
Downs
Hard to change from current currency
Also, only emerald, the point of using gold diamond and iron is you can be more precise, where as emeralds cannot be split up so emeralds would have to be low value compared to diamond to make up for this effect
To be honest, emerald would be an unrealistic economy
It will have a use in the future... That's sure
What we need is an item added into the game just for currency. Never will have any other use
If possable more than one
And I think this will happen soon
As single and multiplayer is being merged there will be more need for currency due to constant player interaction, and I am totaly sure a currency will be added
Wether that be coins or gems it will save the economy on all servers
I predict a way. Sometime , of taking currency from one server and taking it to another
That won't be insane for a long time but... Might happen
So basically
I think it would be pointless, no, totaly stupid to change to ems now, they arnt designed for multiplayer currency, at least they are not effective as multiplayer currency, and I am sure soon there will be with the merge of single and multiplayer. I say we just wait
Keep it the same
In the mean time, maybe add ems as super money, worth stacks or diamonds
Used in huge trades
Stuff like that aswell as normal diamonds and gold
I say we wait....just wait....

They're used for villager trading. You can buy items from villagers, depending on their profession (e.g. from a farmer you can get meat and wool, and from a blacksmith you can get diamond and iron items). The cost of an item depends on the item itself (don't expect everything to cost 1 emerald). Some items may come into trade more rarely than others.
I cant wait for it! Emerald is my favourite gemstone ^_^
I think it would make such a good currency because it's useless, but it's so hard to phase in <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/2639.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":(">:(</object>

I say you've been proved wrong.
That's currency... <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f610.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":|">:|</object>
The hardest part about adding Emerald as a currency is distributing it to the population of Minetown, how is it obtained is it exchangeable with other forms of currency and what is its findablity ratio with diamond (is it harder or easier to find than diamond)?
I personally think the added currency could be really awesome, but i also see inflation in the markets with the currency being added, people trying to just obtain emerald. Another question is, can it be used to make things? or it is just currency, if it isnt used to make things, then it will most likely flop, because what good is a rock that isnt needed to make anything.
