Is the price of plex expected to get even higher?

I keep hearing that at some point CCP will step in but how does that work?

Better invest in a billion tritanium; it'll go up by at least 20% come the refining change.

When asked what the price of PLEX will do, J.P Morgan famously replied:

"It will fluctuate."

CCP only steps in if the rate of change of the price is too high (in either direction). I don't think they really care what the actual in game price is (Although I could be wrong about that).

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

Many people believe this.

When too many people believe that the price of any easily tradable commodity 'will always go up', bad things tend to happen.

Yes.

I hope to see 1bil price tag on that soon. Then I will hope for 1.1bil...

I heard that they used to go for below 300m when they first came out, and have been going up ever since - to almost 800 now. That Mudflation.

As someone who pays for his account the old fashion way and gets free PLEX on occasion, I can only point and laugh at all of you who spend hours grinding each month just to be able to play. Lol

Good for you. But have you ever considered the fact that there are other parts of the world where 20-30 EUR or USD is 1/10 - 1/20 of monthly fee?

Is it Thursday already? Man, this weeks flying by.

They say most of your brain shuts down on the EvE forums. All but the impatient side, and the sarcastic side. No wonder I'm still awake.

There are countries where 600 USD is monthly salary... Those players rather grind isk than pay by RL money....
