Editing Neopoints

{{construction|reason=Proper article to write on the history, use, and changes of the Neopoint.}}

'''Neopoints''' (or '''NP''') are the currency used in [[Neopia]]. Neopoints can be gained through playing [[Game]]s, buying and selling [[item]]s in [[shop]]s or shares on the [[Stock Market]], and through winning various [[Contest]]s.

Neopoints don't have 'physical' denominations, that is, they are not items like [[Dubloons]]. There have been several ways of representing Neopoints attempted in various games and random events, the most successful of these being the ''swagbag''. These are usually labelled with their various amounts (usually 10, 50, 100, 500, 750, or 5000) or occasionally a question mark signifying an unknown quantity. <!-- Swagbags found at http://images.neopets.com/events/xneopoints.gif with x signifying amounts -->

In a [[Neopian Times]] editorial, it was stated that a 1 [[NP]] coin was small and gold. The Bag Of Broken Neopoints supports this, as broken gold coins are seen spilling from the bag.

==Random Events==
Neopoints are a large part of [[Random Event]]s, where random happenings around [[Neopets]] give you a little or a lot of Neopoints...

===Winter===
*''You have stumbled upon the great Ice Treasure of (random number of) '''Neopoints'''!!!''

===Tyrannian===
*''A fungus ball is sitting on this page... and it EXPLODES!. You get confused and drop (random number of) '''Neopoints''' :(''

==Trivia==
*When referring to large sums of Neopoints, it is common for users to abbreviate one thousand Neopoints to ''k'', which stands for ''kilo''. ''Kilo'' comes from the [[Wikipedia:Greek|Greek]] word for ''thousand'' and is used by [[Wikipedia:SI|SI]] to denote 10<sup>3</sup>: 10k NP, for example, represents 10,000 NP. 
*On February 28, 2000, if a user had less than 100 NP at the end of the day, it would be raised back to 100. This has been discontinued.
*A ''Bag of Broken Neopoints'' can be received from [[Underwater Fishing]], which can be repaired at the [[Toy Repair Shop]], giving a maximum of 2,000 Neopoints. Some users have tried to scam other users in the past by saying it's possible to receive 1 million Neopoints from this method, but it was disproven in an [[Neopian Times|Editorial]].
