Summary:
- A UK judge ruled that RuneScape gold, the in-game currency of the popular online game RuneScape, can be considered real stolen property.
- This ruling came from a case where a man was accused of stealing over £700,000 worth of RuneScape gold from other players.
- The judge's decision sets a precedent that virtual in-game items and currencies can have real-world monetary value and be treated as legitimate property that can be stolen.
