In the discussions about modern economy in the past few years, more attention has been given to virtual currencies and their increasing importance due to the wider usage. Virtual money partly owes its origin to virtual worlds computer games, thanks to them gaining in popularity. Pointing out the independence and innovation of this solution contributes to the development of further, improved currency system, operating on a much larger scale. Despite their dynamic development in a few years, little attention has been given to the proper definition of a new kind of means of payment. The purpose of this article is to classify the virtual currency in relation to already existing forms of money, systematizing existing knowledge and to develop a more complete definition describing modern virtual money.

The aim of the paper is an analysis of the way and circumstances under which inflation can occur in a virtual economy. It is also an attempt to answer the question whether, and in what way virtual inflation may be related to inflation in the real economy. The article is conceptual, because in the present state of statistical data the effects of virtual economies are not carried out, or are generated in a very small number, which makes it impossible to make reliable calculations.
