Rip Chip Economy Issue
Today I purchased the last product box available to me, the Market Mile Builders Box, and am now unable to spend any earned Rip Chips, as every box of every category in each shop has been unlocked...

How many hours have you guys played in order to be out of boxes to spend rip chips on? Because I think that's a good way of telling if we get enough currency.
I have 123 hours and I'm still about 15k away from buying all the builder boxes from Hedgemont and Gullcrest. Don't know for sure how far away, since there's all the useless titles I have to waste chips on. But with the rate at which I'm gaining rip chips just from the daily/weekly tasks and the few challenges it takes to complete those, I'm at least another 10 hours away.
Even if it only takes 30 hours to unlock everything in an unfinished, early access game this starved of content, I see that as a problem. Yes, it is possible to earn enough to buy everything and then the incentive is gone, but when it takes such an inordinately long time to actually get there, the problem with the rewards economy isn't not having enough things to buy.
The main boxes can be finished with less than 100 hours of play. The builder's boxes are just currency fodder, the same items with a cheetah or zebra skin applied.
