Can’t xfer money but you can transfer items.
The necro/bot problem is more of ease of steam account creation problem imo though. It is so easy to create a new steam account and subsequently make another ToS account without any overheads besides internet bandwidth and electricity. Coupled with the relative ease of getting a 330 character now, bots and afk farmers feel no pinch at all when their accounts are banned, since it cost next to nothing to create a new account.
Besides the easy way of paying for the game before account creation to deter b"ots/afk farmers, I recommend another way to stop bots and afk farmers (which I suggested many months back).
Suggestion:
Make monsters drop no silver at all, instead they drop “material duds”. These are items in which aren’t used in any recipes and are currently vendor trash. Make each material dud have a weight of 50 so players can’t farm for more than 20-30 mins without turning in the materials for silver.
These materials can be changed to silver via a moving NPC (move around in a small area within viewable screen) located in every map. For lore wise it can be the trading company employee (we encountered them in Manahas iirc) or from the royals in ToS where they need materials for the war effort against the monsters. In exchange for turning in the materials, the players get silver and exp buffs to help in leveling. An even better option and a way to cross promote classes to players is by making the buffs from the npc give a random class buff.
This helps in preventing prolong afk while ones minions auto attack, since being of max weight equates to being not able to pick up any item. It also stops simple automation scripts since they will have to be a really advanced bot to know where in the map they currently are and navigate to the npc to trade in the materials.
Here we have it, a non-destructive solution to solve the bot/afk necro problem, which promotes more interactivity with the game without nerfing necromancers or other minion based classes. With it hopefully silver worth will increase and we can see tokens again in the market.

I meant Team Storage, the one shared between all the characters, if I remember correctly it was in a patch note not too long ago, but I have no idea it enables you to store silver too whitout a token.
Mine is still active (6 days left), when it expires I can try and check if it gives you access to your silver too.
Already tried, you can transfer items but not silver without tokens (token also add some slot in your team storage).
Just as @RyogoKusama said, for those who sell items actively not having a token its huge, you lose lots of money and dont forget that you can only sell 1 item at the time, also you can’t retrieve your money fast without token.
This also its very important, unless you dont farm or play casually. And last thing, not being able to trade its also a big deal, unless once again, you play casually.
And even the event tokens don’t fully solve the problem since you still are kind off unable to trade.
Eventually Tokens will only be obtainable from Lettuce Cubes and have a 14 day expiration date when unused.
