A diversity of currencies is a good thing. And even if GK were to suddenly drop back to the base currencies only (gold, silver, platinum) other items would be used as currencies instead.

Diamonds, for instance, were not originally intended as a currency, but they got that way partly because of their weight and mostly because you need a lot of them to open all of your weapon improvement slots.

Other currencies like Event Coins, Christmas Tokens, and Nihil Coins are used as currencies because they are required to pick up certain things from special shops as well. But yet they will still convert nicely back into platinum or other currencies depending on what the other party in a trade desires.

Just the ability to collect more than one of any given thing leaves potential for things to become currencies, and you can't really escape that.
