A question about playtime.

It makes absolute sense.
The $10 option is for Your account.
The $15 options tradable in game for ANY account.

So you can buy the $15 Token and trade it in game for something shiny.
Essentially it could be a way for players who can't afford or don't want to buy Gametime for $$ to farm in game and exchange their time for it with another player instead.

Oh boi, you will farm a lot in 48h!

So basically this is a round-about for Pay to Win. It's not exactly P2W, but you can basically buy Tokens and sell them for pearls.
This gets better every minute I read more about it.

You may not farm a lot in 48 hours but you could farm a lot in 30 days in order to pay for your next 30 day.

It could be considered pay to win, but then it could also be considered simple economics. If I consider $15 to be worth less to me than the time it would take me to acquire the goods/services being provided then it's a good deal for me. If you consider the time it takes for you to acquire the goods/services to be worth less to you than $15 it's a good deal for you.
I'm not saying it's a glorious system that I completely agree with, it's just the way it is and the way it has always been in every MMO ever produced, right back to when I used to sell million gold checks in Ultima Online. The main difference here is that it's officially supported rather than cloak and dagger.

So we will see Game Time Token loot then...
