According to the graph revealed by CCP today in the EVE player gathering of Shanghai, the richest player is in Serenity who has approximately 1.5 trillion ISKs.

And the second richest person is also in Serenity, who has approximately 1.3 trillion ISKs.

The third richest person from Tranquility has approximately 1.1 trillion ISKs.

I'm absolutely shocked by the data.

Those figures seem rather low tbh.

It's worth noting that very few wealthy players actually keep their investments in liquid isk. PLEX, minerals, unique ships, T2 BPOs, ultra high SP characters... there are countless better ways to use the isk than have it just sit in a wallet.

That said, it's an interesting statistic, if not surprisingly low. There are hundreds/thousands of traders making 1B+ per day, and some of those 20+ person botting. sorry ISBoxer fleets make ludicrous amounts of isk.

Perhaps it's because 1T is another psychological barrier, and the next order of 10 increase (10T liquid) is at the level of being almost technically impossible to achieve.

Probably liquid cash figures, which makes them irrelevant.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Maybe the economy is different on Serenity, ISK might be worth less individually over there.

Now, more than ever, we need a dislike button.

Less players, more chance for somebody to hog all the big money making stuff.

Prices on Serenity are...a teeny tiny bit different.

Last picture I saw, plex was around 2bn isk.

If I had Trillions of ISK I wouldn't keep it all on one account. I'd buy a couple of alts and split it. Makes sense though right?

I don't think you can compare both servers. Its like comparing $ with € salaries without converting the values.

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

Sorry for the low resolution because it was captured by ipad.

The blue is Serenity, the green is Tranquility

The richest people in Eve do not talk about their wealth.

It comes down to cash flow.
What organization has the largest cash flow going through their collective wallets, and who has the ability to siphon off a portion of that cash flow for their own use?
