Whats the point of tokens now? 3k tokens for charity?

Like whats even the point of the double flip chapter and everything for people who had been grinding for the first 15 days. Theres no token -> shard exchange section. The idea that EA would bring that in week 4 feels very stupid, but at the same time didnt the devs put some thought in this? Like come on they couldve made the double flip rewards as shards.
