Eurodollar

The European Currency Unit, also known as eurobuck (eb, $ ) and eurodollar (€$ ) is a currency commonly used in various countries in Cyberpunk. It is the main currency used in the Cyberpunk series.

Background
The European Currency Unit (more commonly known as the eurodollar or "eddies" for short, though also referred to as: euro, holos, color, new script, white/white script, Ebucks, or Smuggies) is the primary currency of the European Economic Community, formed by the EEC treaty of 1992. It is one of the most used currencies in the Cyberpunk timeline, with most nations either recognizing it as an official currency or giving it a highly favorable exchange rate by the year 2004. The United Soviet Sovereign Republics are one of the few known exceptions to this, having no official exchange rate and forbidding banks from exchanging the Russian Federal Ruble for Eurodollars. In 2020, Eurodollar transactions make up approximately 25% of worldwide trade.

Denominations
In 2020, Eurodollars appear in denominations of 1§, 5§, 10§, 20§, 50§, 100§, and 500§. Bills are made of hologram-marked, damage-resistant cloth-like paper. Eurodollar coinage comes in fractions of a Eurodollar, or cents, of 0.10§, 0.25§, 0.50§, and 1§ coins. Coins are made of nickel, tin, and aluminum.

Trivia

 * In the original Cyberpunk 2020 lore, the Treaty was signed in 1997. In Cyberpunk RED, the founding date had been changed to 1992.
 * The original Eurodollar symbol was a section sign. By 2077, the symbol has been changed to a Euro symbol next to a dollar symbol.
