The Golden Companion Spirit and the Light Cone Memory Shards are the new currencies introduced to the game with the Honkai Star Rail 3.2 update. Both can be earned via various means and will allow you to purchase either 5-star characters or Light Cones.

The Golden Companion Spirit can be obtained after getting two copies of a 5-star character that you already got an E6 of. When you get one copy, you will receive a Silver Companion Spirit — two of which will give you a Golden One. As of version 3.2 of Honkai Star Rail, you can receive 1x Golden Companion Spirit as part of the Anniversary Rewards.

Light Cone Memory Shards, on the other hand, are not tied to the gacha. Instead of purchasing the premium tiers, the battle pass will give you these items. If you purchase the highest-priced tier of the pass, you can receive up to two pieces of the Lightcone Memory Shards.
