Is ISK the same as the Icelandic Krona? (like, can they use it over there?)

Looks like I'm not going to get any serious answers from this thread (or no one even knows). Mods, feel free to close this cesspool of Goon-alt trolls.

I think its parshally funneled to the Sasha to fund incursions to give the appearance of CONCORD and defense fleets and the bulk of the money is used to fund evil plots hatched from the shadows that the CONCORD and Sasha and other evil pirate enterprises(goons...looking at u Shocked) prepare a war of galactic domination starting from within the heart of goonland and working its way south and east in a pincer move to cut off the galactic core... then the the real noob blood bath begins and they conquer region after region.... soon everyone will be a miner under concords doomsday beams

No cuts, no butts, no coconuts!

It gets removed from the system. You could pretend that the bounty ISK faucet is paid for by the tax, and that CCP's ISK credit line is infinite.

They use the tax to pay the construction guys who are currently working on the station behind the door!! So, all of you tax dodgers, YOU are the reason we cant open it yet. Stop avoiding..PAY YOUR TAXES!!!!!

They use it to buy NVIDIA graphics cards so they can mine bit coins.

No, no... You got it all wrong...

Hilmar Veigar Pétursson takes its ISK to the bank and exchange them for some Iceland Icelandic króna currency...

Page one. I think it only applies to a role playing perspective, and nothing more.

I've always wondered what CCP actually *does* with the ISK they get from market taxes/broker fees/mission tax/medical clone cost/etc. I assume much of it goes to fund the stations that provide those services and towards things like newbie ships, but it seems like they make way more ISK than would be necessary to do those things.


er... what?

You know isk isn't real right?

Maybe I'm misunderstand economics, but why would you throw away money?
