Actually, more likely, going slowly through large stockpiles, but generally yes, that's the main idea. The newest revised numbers available to me after taking into account possibilities of fake reports and so on - technetium moon count : 360 (very pessimistic, minimum guaranteed) to 400 (most likely) or even 450 (very optimistic, including most bragging rights).
For the vast majority of them, their most likely location is in the northern regions of EVE. Guristas NPC regions have the highest publically confirmed concentrations. Some of the northern-most Serpentis NPC ones have borderline noteworthy numbers. Blood/drone/etc regions have only a couple here and there randomly.

You forget that technetium can only be reacted with platinum, so it would make sense for SOME people to just react it on the spot. Also, it is only used in two possible advanced materials, so one would assume that some of it might even be reacted to that stage. And last but not least, not all production is put up for sale for the general public.
So that can go both ways, estimating actual technetium usage from just the Jita44 market stats has a high potential margin for error both ways.

Originally by: Sanic Xaqueter But dont waste your time, I scanned over 150 of them and everyone had a VERY well defended pos on it that belonged to an alliance.
Obviously. But nobody was talking about taking any of them over, just how many there are in total (to guess how fast stockpiles are depleting, or IF they are depleting at all). _

Originally by: Ostracon Amarr I was under the impression that the system had to be .3 or less in order to moon mine. Is this wrong?
That's what Soldarius said... "tech moons that can't be mined"...
Originally by: Drackstar Yes its wrong. It just needs to be 0.4 or below that.
Read the showinfo on "Moon Harvesting Array", dude. "Restricted to security level LESS THAN 0.4", not "less or equal". That means 0.3 and below only. You can't make use of one in 0.4... Unless they changed that recently and didn't put it in patch notes, which I strongly doubt.
Same story with reactor arrays, be it for simple, complex, polymer or biochemical reactions. Those you also need 0.3 or lower. To be fair though, it might have been an oversight first time they coded it all and they meant to use "<=" instead of "<", but... eh. To the best of my knowledge, they never admitted to it being an oversight, and nobody ever said anything about changing it.

Originally by: LLoyd Thomson 0.36 is still under 0.4, but above 0.3 
It goes by displayed sec level, not truesec. _

Originally by: Steve Thomas my current moddle assumes 449 moons running at 89.5% of theoretical max. its been within 1.07 isk per for the past 3 months.
And you honestly expect to get away with statements like this without being called on them ? Seriously ? I don't even begin to tell what exactly is wrong with that statement... the fact that you randomly pick a moon count and a certain percentage of usage out of your ass (why not 404 moons with 99.5% usage or 536 with 75% usage, those being other arbitrary pairings that would yield the same overall flux) without regard to actual situation on the field... or the fact that you claim to have a theoretical model (one which you can run on your machine as opposed to a supercomputer) for predicting prices to an absurd degree of accuracy ? If you can do the latter, fortunetellers, meteorologists and many other people would want to have a word with you. _

Originally by: Cheapo Hobo Everyone and their grandmom Esther with the limb leg could spot the joke in his post except you.
Unless specifically mentioned otherwise, I will usually assume people are being serious. _
