# Economy

The **StarHeroes economy** is a well-crafted ecosystem where players strategically leverage a range of resources and game elements to enhance their gameplay and climb the leaderboards. 

At its core, the economy revolves around:

* [Currencies](/economy/currencies.md)
* [Heroes](/economy/heroes.md)
* [Spaceships](/economy/spaceships.md)
* [Licences](/economy/pilot-licences.md)
* [Boosts](/economy/boosts.md)
* [Items](/economy/items.md)

Players strategically manage resources, staking STAR tokens, using different kinds of Licences and Spaceships for matches, as well as optimizing Hero choices to navigate the intricate balance of in-game economics, influencing their overall progression and success on the [Main Leaderboard](/economy/leaderboard/main-leaderboard.md).
