Most of the gold that exists comes from bot farmer trains who grind up all those Necropotence and other gear sets to sell while getting tons of gold passively.

About 1/3 is not official info, it was said by some random guy. Not mention he was talking about PC players, not all of ESO players.

"How much gold" topic has 280 votes, which is too small to say anything about real situation, not mention they could lie. Like, ez. Its like "lets ask 10 people from same village and its gonna be what whole our 500 mil people nation thinks". I have 2,5 mil atm. Girl from my friends on this week asked for 250k to purchase 290k house, so her gold wallet was 30k. Well, maybe. So average player in ESO has nearly 1,5 mil gold, not ~500k. Right? Riiiiight :)

You mentioned few places where to buy gold, okay. Same places has nearly 1,5-2 times more expensive prices for consoles. Why dont you count those? And again, I know some places where players sell their services for real money. And those for right now have ~2 times cheaper prices for gold on same servers than your sites.


So your calculations worth nothing. Statistics? Crazy rat on cocaine with firecracker in a hole under her tail has more statistics than your ravings.

even if numbers are accurate your value of gold goes straigh out of window , you know what supply and demand is? noone would buy all that gold , as soon as large amount of these people tried to sell that gold market would crash becouse there would not be many buyers.

only real comparison of "ingame currency to world currency" you can make is Eve online , it happens all time since introduction of plex years and years ago , market is quite stable and its data also is based on years , some wars costed as much as 290k real life dollars or more

here? you cant make any comparsison at all , all that gold would lose value as soon as market would get oversaturated

yes technically it would, however that's not how exchange rates work, exchange rates give the current price of the currency. thanks for the concern though

true but exchange market is stable and not only based on supply and demand(atleast real one), this one would be extremly unstable , it would crubmle to bits even if small amount of people did that , mostly becouse very very niche markets and these values are very artificial becouse small demand

you are right. however, when you look up how much 1,000,000,000 dollars is converted to bitcoin, you get the price of one dollar converted to bitcoin times 1 billion, not what the price would be if you were to buy $1,000,000,000 of bitcoin. it is impossible to know how much all the gold would be worth if someone actually sold it all.

Exept bitcoin has real value , your gold in TESO dont , people get banned , accounts get hacked , officialy selling ingame currency is also banable(i so far not seen single gold seller advertising himself anywhere in chats in TESO)

that money has absolutely no real value and asigning it value on "very few gold selers who may or may not profit some from loophole" is really laugable

there is no "market for it" so it does no hold "real global value" for it and since you cant sell it officialy it wont have global value

what you could say is "Potential black market value"

its not like EVE where you can just liquify your ingame money for real money easily , even in eve its not possible without going into black market as value of ISK to plex is one way only , you can buy plex and sell it for ingame currency but you cant do it other way around without relying to 3rd party like paypal and thats not endorsed by developer
