My PS5 just updated to 4.62. Wasn’t paying attention and got infinity nanites earlier selling some c level ship upgrades. I wonder what will happen to all that free nanite now '^ _ ^

I found that having infinite resources is that it removes a measure of progress.
What good is it to upgrade your scanner to give 608,000 units when you already have the max allowed? What is the use of scanning at all? Bringing resources back from the new expeditions isn’t very fulfilling. I maxed out the units for one save with a stasis device setup, now those farms are never visited. The same is likely to happen with max nanites. None of the activities used to gain nanites will be interesting.
I ended up reloading an old save from USB to clear the max nanite condition without completely losing that save. I think that will be better than restarting and having to revisit the Artimis quest… again.

Same thing happened to me with money and my farms on PC playthrough. Only reason I still visit the crop part of the farm is because it’s on my freighter 
I’d already done everything there was to do on this PS save 3 years ago, only recently revisiting it as I got a PS5. It’s missing some expeditions and stuff but I don’t really mind this having a ridiculous amount of nanites…
Although saying that… I now have a storage container full of Mould I was planning on turning into nanites… Anyone want mould? Free Mould!
Oh… Oh no. I’m also going to have to let go of everyone at my Mould farm… Over time I’ve gotten to know the workers and their families… What have I done? ;0;

I was getting a discount of like 168%. Now I am getting a discount of 50%. That should fix the issues.

Fixed an issue that prevented frigate fleet expeditions from redeeming monetary rewards in currencies other than units
Wait, whaaaat? What other currencies? What the hell are they talking about??

I wonder if some of those comically low unit values were supposed to be nanites, or quicksilver. This might be for something new or upcoming but I remember some values that were in the hundreds and wondered why they bothered. (And if I would ever see a negative.)

Yeah but wasn’t the amount of Units fixed in a previous patch? And if Nanites count as currency, wouldn’t they just say Nanites? Maybe we are overthinking it…wish I had encountered the bug.

Aren’t units, motes, quicksilver & nanites all considered currencies in the NMS universe…?

True. Forgot about Void Motes.

It means nanites. There are discovery rewards when debriefing frigates that have been giving a few hundred units for a long time. I was always sure they were supposed to reward nanites, and I think they finally fixed that

Hmm yes, I guess you could consider nanites a currency, especially the way they’re implemented.
What on earth are void motes? What are they used for? I guess I’m lagging severely behind on the newer story-content…
Quicksilver might also fall into this (which, as far as I’m aware, frigate expeditions can reward sometimes).
I guess I was confused by “monetary rewards”. I can see those things being a currency of some kind, but I wouldn’t consider them money…

Void Motes are the currency used when interacting with the Autophage beings. It’s the currency they use in the UI to acquire different Autophage parts for staves & body/clothing parts.

The No Man’s Sky Wiki has a horrid appearance and annoying ads, but lots of info. Most of it is current.
