I might want to include a series of extra currencies to demonstrate the concepts of metacurrency.
The following could be a premium feature for paid accounts.
Pointless Points : When you go to someone's profile, there is a button you can click and it just gives that person points. These points are absolutely worthless and meaningless and you can give as many as you please as long as you are a premium member.
These points can be tied to an achievement, 'Receive 50 pointless points'.
Reputation would be expressed as a currency (qualitative, not quantitative)
Green points could be given for environmental activism (non-transferable points)
And of course, the baseline points, CAPS, are tradeable.
It is possible that we give XP for each CAP earned, leveling up users as they gain CAPS through trades and volunteerism.

At this current stage, this is simply a thought experiment. I invite any and all thoughts to include themselves. And also, to learn more about metacurrency: http://artbrock.com/videos/arthur-brock-transitioning-new-economy
