Second Life also has its own virtual currency, the Linden Dollar (L$), which is exchangeable with real world currency. [14] [15] Second Life is intended for people ages 16 and over, with the exception of 13–15-year-old users, who are restricted to the Second Life region of a sponsoring institution (e.g., a school). [16] [17]
Residents may purchase L$ directly through the Second Life viewer, or by logging into the website and using the Lindex Exchange. The ratio of L$ to US$ (L$: US$) is a floating exchange rate depending on supply and demand; Linden Dollars can be purchased and sold on the Lindex at the current market rate, or residents can set their own limit to get a better exchange rate.
