I'll argue the middle ground and say put it on 3 days. A trade offer expires in 3 days and this problem is also innately linked to the market, so using the same timeframe allows a <C16 to log in once every 3 days and put up a new trade offer without losing revenue long term. It would still encourage activity, but not the strict 1-day timeframe some might find restrictive.

Now I know this sounds like a joke, but bear with me: Right now missiles are objectively the worst weapon due to a multitude of reasons. This solution may solve exactly zero of them, but it should diversify the overall gameplay a bit. Concrete, I suggest making missiles tradeable on the global market. It would work just like any other resource, with one caveat: they can only be stored on nations. No sending missiles to the alliance bank. I believe doing this would grant numerous benefits to P&W: It creates a new resource that is innately connected to the flow of P&W. Little use for missiles in peacetime, but in wartime… It makes blockades useful in an attrition war. Having a blockade in place would limit the amount of nukes and missiles your opponent can send you and your friends' way. The reverse is also true: someone without MLP may still be a nuisance in a losing global so long as the market provides This makes embargoes a bit more useful again. You wouldn’t want to give missiles to your enemies, would you? Did someone say spies? Spy Ops become more important in peacetime. You can only do 3 spy ops on a nation a day, but you could spy the small fry trying to sell their missiles on the market! They won’t be happy tho. This (I hope) simple change would thus buff the functionality of a bunch of mechanics already in P&W without changing the game balance too much (I think). You’d still have to be lucky to beige with missiles if the enemy has ID and you’d still lose against conventional weapons. If anything, it may shorten the time globals go for because it will be easier to do damage as the losing side. Lastly, this also differentiates missiles and nukes a bit more: instead of missiles just being the little brother, it’s now the easily accessible little brother. So no, nukes shouldn’t be able to be sold, only missiles. Nuclear weapons aren’t really a tradeable good in the real world either, while missiles are. This still sounds like a joke
