    A way to multiply your resources with wits.

    So an idea just came to me. What if you could multiply your resources without actually attacking or collecting them, with a pinch of strategy included. People familiar with the stock market may get the gist. In the real market, you buy stocks or shares of a company and as that company profits, your stocks do too and therfore you make profits too. Not getting into another topic but what I'm bringing up is that if in the game there was an easy to access stock interface from which players could profit, it would bring the aspect of strategy and wits. Simply put, instead of real money players could invest with their resources (elixir,gold and dark elixir) and instead of companies they could invest in clans. As the clan does good, either by winning wars, getting more points or tremendously increasing number of members, the virtual stock's worth will go up, and might just double your investment and profits. My main concern is that the developers would make it very simple and understandable for players and most importantly make it NOT MANDATORY as some players might just like it plain old. Please give your suggestions if you like this idea and meanwhile I will try to figure the technicalities

    Yes I completely agree with you but guess what there even in the real markets there are a butt load of companies to invest in. Just if the developers could establish better tables of respectable clans with reasonable credentials and sufficient number of members.

    This is fresh.

    I would like to see this done with top ten clans only to keep it interesting. This will give top players more incentive to perform as not only will their "stock" rise, but their names would be more recognizable.

    Compared to the big companies to invest in, there is a substantially larger amount of clans in CoC. Way too many, a lot of them with same/similar names. If the investments were made only for the top 200 clans in the world then maybe, but there are still problems with that:
    1) Those clans in top 200 could manipulate the investments very easily.
    2) What about clans that drop out of the top 200 or the clans that finally make it there? What then?
    3) Too many clans trying to copy the top 200 clans.
    4) Sister/feeder clans? What about those?


    I see too many problems for this to work.


    Edit: Don't get me wrong, if a working stock market were to be implemented I would be in favor for it to stay (Although, top players don't need more resources and some can't even hold any more resources).

    I get you man. So in the real market there are top 50 companies (mostly) and they are very high quality. They are represented in an index like the Nasdaq. So if there could be such an index of more than 50 companies( as there are way more clans than companies) it would be easy for players to chose right. Also if you just include top 10 clans, it won't be fun as we need some underdogs in the game too.

    Edit: Don't get me wrong, if a working stock market were to be implemented I would be in favor for it to stay (Although, top players don't need more resources and some can't even hold any more resources).
    So answering your questions
    1) clans can not manipulate the investments very easily as they cannot control if they win or lose wars( obviously they try). Most contribution to the stock price is mainly done by winning wars. About 35%
    2) seeing this from a clan's point of view, they don't make that much profit, but a part of the investor's profit is divided in the clan. So if you wanna come back on top just win wars.
    3) the 200 clans keep changing weekly/monthly and its more of the investor's profit rather than the clan he invests in.
    4) same answer, it's in favour of the investor more.
    and what I forgot to mention when I posted this thread, is that this is meant for growing and thriving players from experience ranging from 40-100 something around that, other players can also use it. I hope that helps.

    Explain how SC would make money off of this idea. I think everyone forgets that aspect of things. They're a business selling a product....with the purpose of making money. How does this benefit them?

    I know this is cool to have top 10 clans to invest in but we need some mediocre ones too, or then everyone will end up investing in clans like mega empire or Quantom's web etc. At least 50 basic clans are needed. And remember they are shuffled and mainly decided on how many wars they win and how quickly. Your idea is perfect even I like it, the top 10 clans can be like blue chip stocks and other remaining 40 May also be available to invest in.
