Not sure how I feel about this yet. It could go either way.
I don't mind dropping some change on some fun things, but I have this nagging feeling that down the road, they're going to want us to pay "silver" for exotics and things of that ilk.
Let's hope not, and hope they just keep it for fun and goofy things, and not a pay to win situation.

We get a taster of this new 'silver' currency, as so far all that's mentioned it's all aesthetic features. They won't have any extra advantages, you should be able to buy one or two things using this freebee, but after you spend it you have to pay to get more. What Bungie are hoping this system will do is fund development of smaller DLC's that they can release for free. We should expect one or two large DLC drops from now and September 2016, and many smaller DLC's throughout the course of the next year. After the last large DLC drop we should look forward to Destiny 2, (not 2.0 update) the whole new game, it's been unofficially announced for September, November time next year. I reckon as long as Bungie don't fall back on it as a safe guard for income, it'd be a good differentiation between guardians around the world.
