No, ST will remain untradeable.

Players generally aren't
supposed to be able to obtain items with Qi requirements that exceed their belt easily. This update allows them to eventually get stuff without investing real money - if they keep winning ES events, logging in daily etc. There are no plans to simplify that even further.

Probably not, we'd like to keep payment possibilities as either TC or ST, not both.

Yes, we'll be bringing them back to shop. Will still likely stay somewhat limited (either being available for purchase for a short period of time, or super low stock).

Shiai Tokens are still untradeable and there are no plans to change that - so no, you won't be able to exchange items to ST with other players, be it staff members or regular users.
