I would disagree with this to be honest. Although the quests give a lot of gold, and although getting gold is "easier" now, this gold is very temporary. The gold you get from quests can look huge at first but the amount of gold you'd need to get gear and reset and get gear again everytime you go up a year takes up soooooo much gold.
Gear and the new brooms are a vacuum that sucks up all the gold that we had before and even though I don't mind that, after you finish all your quests and get the graduate gear and good brooms, the process of getting gold becomes soooooo difficult. The minigames were not updated to give more gold, the gold to AC ratio i still 1:10, the voting token to gold ratio is still 180:100, etc...
Sure, the Graduates pre revelius that already had the best broom and tens of thousands of saved up gold and all 30 spell points and hundreds of ACs are gonna find no problem with this, but for post-revelius players it's extremely difficult to save up gold and in order to progress they would have to keep spending.
In my opinion, the store trade ratio should stay the same because after you've spent all your gold getting the revelius essentials, you'd be left with nothing and would struggle so much to get more and I have several pending suggestions on increasing the amount of gold to get from the things I mentioned above, and I do believe gold pre-revelius was much easier to get. The best broom was 2,000 gold only, and you could get more than 1000 gold per day doing chest runs. Now that this is gone, and revelius sucked all the gold from the economy, I don't believe the store trade ratio should change, but then again this is just my take and people are free to choose whatever ratio they like. Just looking at it from a statistical point of view.
