This is actually got me thinking ... if Mora Blossoms exist, then why is Zhongli's ability to make mora (or lack thereof) a plot point? And if they dont exist in lore, then ... (thinking emote).
@@theuone8828 it's because ley lines or domains are risky and commoners can't fight them so the entire currency supply of the world will be in the hands of adventurers and/or treasure horders or some other organisation and it's obvious that any organisation made by mortals will be at the very least a little corrupt . then the only way to achieve a peaceful way of getting mora would be adepti and/or the other archons joining together which will be impossible in the near future and i also think the resin recharge is buffed for the player since even if only vision holders have resin lore wise [ not gameplay wise ] the are many npc vision holders that would still mean lore wise many adventurers and/or treasure horders and/or fatui have vision and thus domains and ley lines should be on a constant purge so i think their [ npc ] resin replenishes depending upon their life style [ resin description says it is absorbed from the surroundings ] so it might take them a few days or even weeks just to get a few resin . TL:DR SO IN GENERAL LEY LINES ARE NOT A RELIABLE AND A SAFE SOURCE OF MONEY
10:15 this is actually true because on zhongli's story quest: sal flore one of the npc that's having a discussion with zhongli in the beginning mentions that mora is used on "weapon enhancement" not by paying the blacksmith of whoever enhanced that weapon but its actually used as a part of that enhancement, a catalyst.
Zhongli: "I don't like sea food." Also Zhongli: "Osmanthus wine tastes the same as I remember...but where are those who share the memory?" Vox Akuma: "S H U T U P"
It is possible in terms of the story that the Ley Lines are only where the enemy creatures gather because of the imbalance of elemental energy and in these yellow ones they just happen to be treasure hoarding types. So it could just be we're taking Mora that they pillaged and no Mora is actually being produced.
I see a few issues with this, 1 a new Arcon can take his place, it's been made clear they aren't permanent, 2 as he said earlier the gnossis enhances their power, it's not the whole source, they would most likely be able to find a way to continue minting the mora via his process of creating it and a group of geo users
Considering the fact that the Fatui has the geo gnosis I doubt they hadn't thought about that since they have a banker between their harbingers. So my theory is that Zhongli made a contract with them so they would take care of the mora production when their plan is completed and they overthrow the gods.
@@popmasteralan5594 ah yes, and that's why it made 1 billion dollars in 6 months. Watch as all your favourite AAA and indie games become f2p with micro transactions :)
I expected : him overthinking zhongli's ult that spawns a literal meteor on earth and eventually making the earths crust melt to lava and raise living hell I got : an economy lesson
@@omkargaikwad6181 he’s still very strong and could solo a lot of gods without any effort? We don’t know for sure but he should be the strongest one out of all the archons
an interesting thing is that artifacts when "deleted" gives you mora. like, besides morax, you can also "get them" through irminsul trees from domains (deleting artifacts) and ley lines after defeating bosses and mobs. so basically, mora is given by celestia/primordial one anyways and moraz was just a buffer
also, to add to this, the Fatui (antagonists) are known for being very wealthy in mora, meaning this will give them more power in teyvat. which makes this even more scary to think about
It also adds to Regrator's (who is the richest among the Harbingers and is responsible for their country's economy) lore in one of the pale flame set. One of his goals is to make Snezhnaya the "beating heart" of mora in all of Teyvat so that once he accomplishes that, he can singlehandedly destroy it in the blink of an eye if he ever decides to silence said "heart beat".
@@noirody6256 Not as far as either I or the Harbingers can tell. Dottore specifically mentions that it's impossible for a regular person to use a gnosis properly or even really understand divine wisdom and the Cryo Archon presumably can't use Geo either.
zhongli was able to name the worlds currency after himself without anyone questioning it because he is the sexiest archon there is and thats all the reason he needs
We all know that Noelle will end up ascending and become the next Geo Archon. Not only would she create mora but she’d single handedly deliver it and spend it for the people who need it
@@WarrenReport he explains it in the video. It's not deflation it's the same concept as us burning our money after using it and never making more. I highly doubt that will happen but the world would eventually literally run out of Mora because Zhongli said "alright so i'm gonna head out"
@@bokuhoe4435 if mora starts to disappear, the economy would adapt to it, that is, prices would get smaller and smaller. Mora is a terrible currency precisely because it can be used as a material, adopting something exclusively for monetary use and that was deflationary (do not increase your monetary base) would be a good thing, and not as matt says that deflation is always bad and caused the crisis of 29 (which has to do with interest rate manipulation)
@@WarrenReport do you even play genshin or know the plot? This theory has to be at least a little bit of a joke. Maybe he doesn't know that, but genshin won't literally stop giving us the currency lmao don't take this so seriously my guy
@@bokuhoe4435 I know man, but the video uses theory and data from our real world to support the theory, so it's only fair to use counterarguments from our real world to counter that. A lot of people will see the video and learn wrong facts about deflation
@@GreatSakuya yuh, I have a theory that the upside down statue we discovered in the new archon quest is the actual gate way to celestia tbh, i feel like the upside down statue is going ot be mentioned again in later updates and will help us get to celestia
And that my friends, is something I would describe with one single word: *capitalism* like, literally, exchanging real money for a virtual currency that "stopped being produced" and...coming to think about it, imagine if Mora starts to be used as a "special" currency in Genshin Impact's world, like "diamonds", "gems", "crystals"...
I think Zhongli is just confident that humans will find a way to create Mora themselves or come up with a substitute. Remember that the Snezhnayans were able to create fake Sigils of Permission that were close enough to the originals to not only fool the adepti, but also temporarily release a god from Rex Lapis’s bindings.
Exactly. The entire archon quests are about gods letting humans govern themselves. Also his gnosis is not lost, the new golden house could be in Snezhnaya.
@@masamune111 you need resin for those though, and i think it’s only accessible to the mc. remember that the blacksmith can’t really do anything to the magical crystal chunks without resin from mc
What an interesting theory! It's important to note though that Zhongli didn't retire just out of selfishness but in a later quest it reveals he is worried about erosion which can affect anyone or anything that lives long enough...even a god.
@@Andrea-fz3pm It actually sounds more like a plan than an oversight. My theory about Mora is that since Zhongli needs the Gnosis to make it and the Gnosis comes from Celestia Zhongli wanted to force humanity away from relying on anything related to Celestia. If you know the theories about Celestia it is meant to suppress humanity. So to truly help and uplift them Zhongli would want to push them into making their own brand of Mora or maybe another catalyst. And judging from his statements that MatPat shows in the video he's confident they can do it.
Nah, the Liyue Qixing will just start issuing and backing the first fiat currency, using their official status of the successor of Morax for its marketing. Meanwhile, Snezhnaya will be the new producer of alchemical conduits to replace mora and military tech in general. In fact, it already is, and is seeking outside markets (even if mostly for testing and manipulation purposes for now).
@@Sorain1 Their powers are sealed by the unknown god, hence they're trapped in teyvat. So really they can't abandon it in a way, but it sucks being the 7 nation's errand person
I recently got Genshin (read: a few months ago) and wanted to see if there was anything on here about it, and I'm glad there is! Though I think there is actually a way for this to be solved. Morax didn't just get rid of his gnosi, he gave it away. Because of that, it could be possible for the Tsaritsa to access the ability to create mora, and Snezhnaya could become the new source of the world's money

@@devanshsakorikar5642 Teleport waypoints are canonical. The in-game description says that while the locals see them and don't know how to use them, "to the foreign traveler, however, their use becomes quite apparent." So only the traveler can use them.
"I fear the Geo Archon's fatal error will doom us all." "With the world Mora supply being limited upon Morax's fake death, the economy would suffer greatly." "Specialy with things like marketing, alchemy, and everything else Mora is used for." "With Mora's magical properties that allow it to act as a medium -- in cases like forgery and alchemy -- it is completely irreplacable."
I know its a joke , but still wanna point out that they already have lore planned out till sumeru which the game will get to next year , and already have a framework of how the story will supposedly end.... But still Matt's theory seems interesting
Aside from the traveler, who all can activate leylines? Well the power to make more mora from the geo gnosis....is now in the hands of fantasy russia's Tsaritsa.
@@idminister apparently, Mora can be found in Domains that every adventurer has an access to. Granted, the amount of Mora found there is lower than Ley Lines, however Domains are more widely known among the people of Teyvat, especially adventurers.
Zongli: surrenders gnosis Zongli: In terms of mora I have no mora. The Tsaritsa: has geo gnosis, makes mora. The Tsaritsa: Stonks Edit: now we know why Childe is Zhongli's personal wallet.

It is possible in terms of the story that the Ley Lines are only where the enemy creatures gather because of the imbalance of elemental energy and in these yellow ones they just happen to be treasure hoarding types. So it could just be we're taking Mora that they pillaged and no Mora is actually being produced.

Hopefully he'll be inspired from this video to make more seeing the overwhelming support of us players.
I see a few issues with this, 1 a new Arcon can take his place, it's been made clear they aren't permanent, 2 as he said earlier the gnossis enhances their power, it's not the whole source, they would most likely be able to find a way to continue minting the mora via his process of creating it and a group of geo users

Considering the fact that the Fatui has the geo gnosis I doubt they hadn't thought about that since they have a banker between their harbingers. So my theory is that Zhongli made a contract with them so they would take care of the mora production when their plan is completed and they overthrow the gods.

an interesting thing is that artifacts when "deleted" gives you mora. like, besides morax, you can also "get them" through irminsul trees from domains (deleting artifacts) and ley lines after defeating bosses and mobs. so basically, mora is given by celestia/primordial one anyways and moraz was just a buffer

Thank you moga
I just hope they don't take everything he says as law. like some do for other theorys
also, to add to this, the Fatui (antagonists) are known for being very wealthy in mora, meaning this will give them more power in teyvat. which makes this even more scary to think about
:0 can I add your comment into mine? this gives a bigger game theory.
It also adds to Regrator's (who is the richest among the Harbingers and is responsible for their country's economy) lore in one of the pale flame set. One of his goals is to make Snezhnaya the "beating heart" of mora in all of Teyvat so that once he accomplishes that, he can singlehandedly destroy it in the blink of an eye if he ever decides to silence said "heart beat".
Since they have zhongli gnosis, does that mean they can produce mora?
Whatever you say fanboy...
@@noirody6256 Not as far as either I or the Harbingers can tell. Dottore specifically mentions that it's impossible for a regular person to use a gnosis properly or even really understand divine wisdom and the Cryo Archon presumably can't use Geo either.
zhongli was able to name the worlds currency after himself without anyone questioning it because he is the sexiest archon there is and thats all the reason he needs
and because he was the literally founder but do go on🍜🍵
I agree with you-
Well, this was a big misconeption I saw in the video. The name wasn't decided by himself. It just naturally grew that way by the people of liyue.
Not really since he won the war and the first archon to make new currency venti could also do that but he dont do that

Why is a year old video from a channel I'm already subscribed to being shown as an ad?

@@bokuhoe4435 if mora starts to disappear, the economy would adapt to it, that is, prices would get smaller and smaller. Mora is a terrible currency precisely because it can be used as a material, adopting something exclusively for monetary use and that was deflationary (do not increase your monetary base) would be a good thing, and not as matt says that deflation is always bad and caused the crisis of 29 (which has to do with interest rate manipulation)

I think Zhongli is just confident that humans will find a way to create Mora themselves or come up with a substitute. Remember that the Snezhnayans were able to create fake Sigils of Permission that were close enough to the originals to not only fool the adepti, but also temporarily release a god from Rex Lapis’s bindings.
Exactly. The entire archon quests are about gods letting humans govern themselves. Also his gnosis is not lost, the new golden house could be in Snezhnaya.
We do get Mora from leylines, so maybe more people will learn to tap into those.

@@Andrea-fz3pm It actually sounds more like a plan than an oversight. My theory about Mora is that since Zhongli needs the Gnosis to make it and the Gnosis comes from Celestia Zhongli wanted to force humanity away from relying on anything related to Celestia. If you know the theories about Celestia it is meant to suppress humanity. So to truly help and uplift them Zhongli would want to push them into making their own brand of Mora or maybe another catalyst. And judging from his statements that MatPat shows in the video he's confident they can do it.
Now let's force Matt to make a game theory about Venti's near death
shhhhhh, I don't want to cry I love him

OH NO PLS DON'T IT'LL MAKE ME CRY VENTI IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE CHARACTERS

Nah, the Liyue Qixing will just start issuing and backing the first fiat currency, using their official status of the successor of Morax for its marketing. Meanwhile, Snezhnaya will be the new producer of alchemical conduits to replace mora and military tech in general. In fact, it already is, and is seeking outside markets (even if mostly for testing and manipulation purposes for now).
