World of Warcraft's in-game markets are Marathi Archivesgoing insane after Blizzard changed how WoWTokens work.

Blizzard bridged the gap between some of its most popular games Monday, allowing players to use World of Warcraft's in-game currency to purchase WoW Tokens, convert them to Battle.net funds, and then purchase Overwatchlootboxes, Hearthstonecard packs and other Blizzard game items on the Battle.net shop.

The cost of WoWTokens fluctuates with World of Warcraft's in-game economy, and increased demand for these Tokens has cause their prices to skyrocket.

The market for WoW Tokens works like this: Players buy WoWTokens from Blizzard for $20 and put them up for sale on the World of Warcraftauction house. World of Warcraftplayers then purchase WoWTokens on the auction house with in-game gold. With a WoWToken, players choose to either add 30 days of WoWgame time to their account or add $15 to their Battle.net balance.

Blizzard explains the process pretty clearly in a video:

As for how much gold you'll need to buy a WoWToken, Token prices fluctuate with the in-game market. Before Blizzard made the announcement yesterday, WoW Tokens on U.S. servers were going for about 60,000 gold according to WoWTokenPrices.com.

At the time of publishing, WoWTokens now cost almost double that on U.S. servers, reaching over 110,000 gold less than 24 hours after the announcement.

Prices on European servers have shot up similarly, going from about 110,000 gold per Token on Monday to more than 200,000 gold per Token today.

For players that rely on WoWTokens to pay for World of Warcraftgame time ($15 for 30 days), things are not going in their favor. For WoWgold fiends, this is a good time to sell some WoWTokens.

Of course, this also means that the value of gold on the WoWauction house may fluctuate as well. If everyone is buying WoWTokens with gold, gold becomes more scarce and prices for other in-game items and resources may drop.

The economies on Asian servers have acted considerably differently. Although prices for WoWTokens rose sharply after the announcement, they have already come back down to more normal levels. The Western economies may experience a similar crash once the hype dies down and the market levels itself out, so keep an eye on prices before investing in a handful of Tokens.
