So, the universe is an unlimited space, but we can only reach as far as there are jumpgates.
I got the idea of creating "border Space", which would extend the current universe, reachable from the current Systems. There would be hidden but static Jumpgates leading there. The deeper you go there, the more dangerous it gets.
It woulnt be claimable and not sure if there should be any Moongoo or POS allowed, no stations either, but the local would still exist. I think this way you could actually could get new players into 0.0, living out of a Mothership or so. The rats would be significantly stronger with higher bounties or loot
It would be some place to discover and maybe to hide.
There could be some anomalies and signatures too, but like i said, they grow stronger the deeper you dive into it.
What do you guys think? Crap or usefull?

Border Space: From what it sounds like; you just described wormholes that don't close, this could be useful but then with more promising wormholes that can lead you across all of eve to fortune or death; what would you chose?

crap
If you can anchor POS to unknown system that is only accessable by wormhole why would you be Unable to put POS to unknown system with stargate connection to it?
Idea that there would stargates that are hidden but "could" be used sounds silly to me.
Perhaps there would be systems where there are no stargates byt you could launch cyno probe. Once it arrives it creates cynofield taht you can jump capitals into, possbily with equipment required to build stargate of your own there, extending 0.0 space.

Why not just expand wormhole space then?

That sounds like a nice idea to me.
Why not extend WHs?
Well, i'm not a big fan of Wormholes. Too many variables, too time intensive and you cant really return to your home base. Wormholes would still be needed for the T3 production.
People complaining that space isnt enough, ccp want new players in zerospace.
If you would allow POS to be anchored, at least you dont have to disallow them to claim space. They should not tell you that there is someone else who anchored a pos in that system.

Well ... you can always return to your home. the question is just how many jumps/wormholes it will take. (trust me i know how much it can suck to be thrown out of wh space 50 jumps through 0.0)
Imho ... if CCP adds more systems ... it shouldnt be with stargates but wormholes. that would have the feeling of discovering new space. and if you are worried about getting stuck you can always keep a scout watching the wormholes so that you can jump out when it starts to destabilize.
if those new style systems wont allow posses (no moons!), you might see people living out of a cloaked orca. real nomadic life style.

sounds like the perfect place to hide away with 14 alts and mine 23/7 without any fear that someone will come into the system and destroy you.
-1 I do not endorse this product.

There will undoubtedly be further expansions of space as the game grows. There have been at least a few so far -- I joined the game in 2007 about the time drone regions were added. There are lots of good ideas for new types of space, but this is not one of them. Any new regions would have to be even more remote than w-space, and thus lower trafficked. To add Local chat would be unrealistic and make it far too safe.
Two ideas I've suggested are:
- Systems on the "other side" of w-space, i.e. constellation-sized star clusters unconnected to the main New Eden cluster, within which players can cyno jump or construct their own stargates -- but the only way to get there is by unpredictable wormhole routes.
- Systems that cannot be jumped to, but must be reached by some kind of ultra-fast warp, taking 30 minutes to an hour of travel. These'd be perfect bases for nomadic resource harvesters or pirate corporations... safe from fly-through traffic, but with no escape if you're attacked.
