It’s on the server and there are constant checks to essentially audit the amounts if someone did try to cheat or there was a glitch.
This also helps if someone was supposed to receive currency but game reloaded or lost connection before it was granted. When they return to the game the server checks and will grant the amount and often you will see a “welcome back, here are the coins you got.” This usually will end in an animation/vfx of the currency hitting the player wallet/ currency counter and the counter ticking up so the player doesn’t get confused about their winnings and the amount received (CS tickets for days).
Games that require a connection to the internet have this capability and are a big reason why they require a connection. It’s also why they tend to not be moddable.
