No, only the iOS version has this problem.

Also, I don't think introducing high-powered cards compensate for the inflation of pp in any way.

What happened instead is that the cloners cloned so many pp, that they essentially shot themselves on the foot. PP is so worthless now you'd be hard press to find anybody accepting pure pp as payment anymore. And since Applibot is able to detect cloned cards, they probably have to be forced to purchase card packs in order to receive or trade for good cards.

It's like the world has splitted into two classes. One class of people who trades in pwr 16~18 who basically only trades amongst themselves in straight card trades (with some pp to top-off). These people are also practically the ones who has the means to compete in events rankings now. The second class of people are the rest who can still use pp as trade currency and can only afford pwr14 and below, with some lucky pwr 15s. The second class however is rapidly running out of purchasing power since inflation is still raising higher than their ability to compete/earn from participating in events. So many of them either quit, or only participate in a causual way (ie, only getting the ody 100 floor rewards, or only competing for raid keys....etc).
