See also: wikipedia:Yen for a RL and in-depth information on the currency, as this article only deals with those aspects in which the NationStates Yen is different to the RL Yen.

The Yen (¥) is the official currency of the Yen Block nations and many other nations inspired by Japan.

The Giga Yen is the official currency of the META Syndicate and several other Yen Block nations, though most keep the Yen.

The Yen has become mostly a digital currency in Eastasia, which allows companies to calculate with monetary values as small as a PictoYen (p¥, 10^-12 Yen), or even the YoctoYen (y¥, 10^-24 Yen) to do accurate financial calculations and calculate interest rates, monetary units that would otherwise be far less in value than any amount of metal of paper feasible to represent them as a physical, non-digital, currency. Different amounts of c¥, d¥ and ¥ are available as coins and paper money, as are larger amounts, usually up to the GigaYen (G¥) scale. Beyond that, digital transfers are prevalent again. It should be noted that no amount of money beyond the Peta Yen (P¥) has ever been transfered, and that no single entity or group in Eastasia holds more money than the Exa Yen (E¥), with the exception of the Emperor, who officially own the Yotta Yen by owning everything within his empire.
