I was finishing the new 2024 Dungeon Master's Guide, and read the section on Trade Bars.
For a moment, I thought this was something new being added, but then went back to the 2014 DMG and there are Trade Bars outlined in there as well that I had completely forgotten about.
I guess I forgot about the Trade Bars as there is nothing in D&D Beyond to support them, even though they have been suggested to be used for a long time.
Can a Trade Bars section be added to the Currency section on Character Sheets?
I understand that I can create custom items to manually add Trade Bars to my inventory, but this seems like something that would be useful, and as these have been suggested to be used for over 10 years at a minimum, adding them would be a helpful addition.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Cheers!

Breathe, dragons; sing of the First World, forged out of chaos and painted with beauty. Sing of Bahamut, the Platinum, molding the shape of the mountains and rivers; Sing too of Chromatic Tiamat, painting all over the infinite canvas. Partnered, they woke in the darkness; partnered, they labored in acts of creation.

Additionally, weirdly, despite being in the 2024 DMG, all the gems only show up under Legacy.

I also gave feedback about this issue and requested Gems as items for 2024 play.
