UI
Manage Currency UI (Seals)
A Manage Currency UI has been added where you can store and exchange seals in one place.Seals obtained through worker tasks, Imperial Delivery, Node/Conquest War, Coelacanths caught through fishing, and other similar items will now be stored in the UI, not in your inventory or storage.

Many of you have collected various types of seals while adventuring over a long time, so we expect this change will provide improved convenience.

However, it may get confusing to have all the seals we've had in the game so far in one place,
so we have decided for the UI to only store often used seals and maintain others to be used via search or sorting by category.
