What your estimated play net worth actually means

Estimated play net worth is a summary of a play wallet and the known catalog values of reported current holdings. It helps you see a collection across connected game sites. It is an entertainment estimate, not cash, a resale quote, or an independently appraised value of real-world property.

The calculation

The current calculation is wallet balance plus the sum of each reported quantity multiplied by its current game-catalog unit value. It covers reported inventories only. It does not estimate missing sites or subtract hypothetical liabilities; if borrowing is introduced, a debt-aware calculation would need a separate design.

Suppose an illustrative wallet contains 20 play BitOil. You own two virtual pieces of equipment with catalog values of 3 each and one virtual property with a catalog value of 10. Known assets total 16, so the displayed estimate would be 36 play BitOil, or 36,000,000 play microBitOil. These are examples, not actual catalog offers.

A purchase usually changes the mix

Start with a wallet of 20 and no holdings. If a completed purchase costs 5 and the acquired item's reported catalog value is also 5, the wallet becomes 15 and assets become 5. The total remains 20. Treating the purchase as both an unchanged wallet and a new asset would double count the same value.

Purchase price and current catalog value can later differ. If the example item's catalog value becomes 4 while your holdings are unchanged, the estimate becomes 19. That is a change in a game valuation, not a realized cash loss. It says nothing about whether another user would buy the item.

Unknown is different from zero

A free item with a known zero catalog value contributes zero and can still be a valid owned asset. An item whose value is unknown is excluded from the known-value subtotal and identified as unpriced. An unconnected site's inventory is absent altogether. None of these states should be interpreted as proof that you own nothing there.

The total is only as complete and recent as its reports. Check the listed sites and inventory dates. Reports older than 24 hours, or from inactive sources, are marked stale. A failed update should preserve the last report with an honest status rather than silently replace it with an empty collection.

What belongs in the inventory

• Current digital collectibles, equipment, items, vehicles and virtual property reported by their authoritative source site.
• Quantities you still own, with disposed or consumed items removed by a newer source report.
• One authoritative copy of an asset; displaying the same collection on another site must not add it again.

Guest balances, practice wallets and consumed pretend food orders are excluded. The shared profile can be supported before a site's asset reporting is connected, so an integrated profile alone does not establish complete inventory coverage.

For the units behind these examples, read one wallet, two units.
