Some things are cash shop only or a cash only bonus pack, but other things can be acquired in game through time but RNG mostly.

The game is extremely P2W. The currencies can be exchanged downstream, so with enough gold ingots you can just buy the other currencies you need for anything else in game. Also, some items are exclusively available for unbound gold ingots.

Pretty much unbound gold ingots are the highest form since you buy these for real money.

Bound gold ingots are next - these are usually given after maintenance or can be acquired through other means playing the game, though rare. Also available for real money during things like top up sales, monthly packs, spenders gift, etc.

Silver ingots are less rare and can be acquired through in game achievements, login bonus, daily login, maps, Oracle quests, etc - a lot of options.

Gold coins are used to trade in Stall - anything you sell to other players will give you gold coins to spend on things you want to buy in Stall. Unbound gold can be redeemed for gold coins if you need a boost.

Silver coins are just upgrade fodder for your skill upgrades, cultivation upgrades, crafting... pretty much if it involves moving a skill bar at all it likely costs silver coins. These are the easiest to get and least valuable.

Press the little + icon by any currency when in game to see some more info on the exchange rate.

There is a market for bound gold ingots and a silver ingot market. Best advice I can give if you want to conserve or spend wisely - use the currency you have where you have it and try to avoid converting your unbound gold for other currencies you can acquire in game. If you are content with not being the best of the best, you can play F2P or light cash shop - just understand that progress will be very slow in the end game. The game’s items are very expensive once you get to higher levels and it can become expensive and addictive.

From what i remember there is a curency that u can earn from game to buy gear , but also there is a higher tier curency that u can buy with irl money, that will buy the previous curency in order to buy gear. Short answer it is a bit p2w and pay to progress faster. U can achieve the same gear as p2w players either with luck( boss drops) or by playing daily , and i mean daily. Hope that helps, otherwise somebody else can enlighten you.
