So One Thing About Rift Fragments...
They're not technically a currency, right?
You collect them and you'll go up in tiers on the Rift.
But stuff like Auric Cells & Euros are actual currencies: You can hold onto them and decide what to buy with them, as long as products have a price tag with the right currency on it.
Rift Fragments on the other hand seems to be more akin to Player Experience: It's a counter that goes up and you get stuff for hitting thresholds, only difference being that you get PE with playtime and Rift Fragments by completing specific goals.
Does this sound about right, or am i missing something?

It's just a progression system that's going towards The Rift, they're not a currency because, like you said, they cannot be used to buy anything specifically or anything like that...
That's what a currency mainly is, it's a type of "bargaining chip" to purchase goods or in this case... skins from the store. The Rift Fragments do no such thing, they're just in a way "EXP" that goes towards The Rift to unlock the Tiers... that's all they're for. You can't hold on to them to buy anything, or even hold on to them for a while since they do expire once The Rift closes.
It's made to expire because new tomes will always be added, so it'll always continue the cycle.
short answer
You basically answered it yourself, they're not used to buy anything, they're just a part of The Rifts progression system and that's all... They're basically the equivalent to EXP for The Rift.
