Credsticks are the most common form of currency in 2064. They are commonly shaped like a pen, and
all have a small display which shows the current balance of the credstick. Credsticks can basically
be considered electronic money -- universally accessible and accepted, they take away all the hassle
of paper money, and have built-in security measures of varying quality. Unlike paper money, however,
credsticks leave a trail. Because of this, paper money is almost always used for the less legal
activities.
To use a credstick it you must ACTIVATE it and have it inside your inventory, but not in a
container. If you sell things, nuyen might be deposited on a credstick in your inventory instead of
in cold cash.
If mobs can drop a credstick, they only have a 1/10 chance to do so to cut down on stockpile issues.
