1.) This game has always, up until recently, encouraged developing multiple unique toons as a form of end-game. 2.) Other currencies, like Drifter Salvage, Questionite, Globals, and Zen follow this model. Even Justice Tokens are account-bound. Consistency has been used as an explanation by Cryptic for other recent balance changes. So, let's be consistent. 3.) Challenges like TA have strict group composition requirements, so you often end up playing the toon that is needed, as opposed to the one that you would prefer to play. 4.) The ability to play multiple unique toons is still what makes this game interesting and provides replayability. By adding more grind and taking away or detering this alt-enabled replayability, players will burn out much faster. 5.) Look at your successful competitors like MSH. Grindy game, but has replayability due to so many different toons/builds, and currencies are account bound.
Thanks for considering.

Currencies like GCR should be account-bound, or there should be a method to transfer between toons 29 votes
Alts are a tremendous appeal for a lot of paying members in this game, from various creeds and preferences. They're an incentive to subscribing and even more to go LTS. This poll will probably have people who don't agree with each other on much of anything voting together. This has been suggested often and I hope its a possibility!
