Reading the thread on Reddit, if CCP does go forward with introducing this new crystal along with others for different ore, I doubt trit would see much drop in price.

If you're a miner in null space, would you mine for Trit or Zydrine? I could see high end mineral dropping in price (especially nocxium), but not low end.

Either way, this will help null alliance become less dependant on highsec for raw material.

this mean its time to get out of the 425mm rail making game? If these changes go through will the improved crystals make it more viable to mine low ends in 0.0 over compressing in highsec and shipping to 0.0?

edit: Didn't CCP once say that their desired prices for minerals were something along the lines of

Trit - 2 ISK/u
Pyerite - 4 ISK/u
Mex - 8 ISK/u
Isogen - 32 ISK/u

I just watched a bunch of buy orders @ 4.60 ISK/unit get filled

I guess somebody unloaded their stockpile

If I recall, that is how insurance payouts were calculated before, but prices never really matched up in-game. That's why insurance fraud was possible if you played your cards right.

Perhaps this is an attempt to revitalize 0.0 and bring prices in line with how CCP and Dr. Eggnog envision them?

This is the most stupid order I have ever seen on the marked order.

- Unless, just one of them is real, the rest is a margin trading scam. With the benefit of doubt I say
the odds for that. is 95% +

So, where is the logic. Here it is: I got x amount of trit, and I wanna get a 20% + profit on it. I set up a fake buy order on
trit with margin trading, for the sole purpose of selling my stacked Trit.

Since I dont have any Trit, and dont want Trit to go that High, I post this.

- Cheers

So.... Dont belive the Hype

wtf are you talking about?

Edit: Mineral Value - I think this is the mineral value that CCP is trying to aim for.

Not sure about trit... But I am shorting MD mineral speculation/manipulation threads, because supply is going up astronomically.

Here is the table of mineral values used to calculate insurance.

So far we've seen Zydrine go up, and this revelation would lead us to believe that Tritanium would go down. That's pretty well in line with an attempt to get mineral prices back to their base values

You have no idea how much MEXALLON is a bottleneck in 0.0

There is no way to effect a null only crystal or script. If there was rumor of them buffing I-Hub bonus to null mining I could see it working out but a T2 Miner will activate anywhere in EVE regardless of its crystal. Modules that are disabled in high and low sec simply don't work. I just can't figure out how this could happen.

It's simple. The advanced crystals are banned in empire.

So... you smuggle them in on a disposable alt and then simply operate out of a single system. Customs only cargo scan on gates right? Even if you can get scanned on stations too, simply operate out of a highsec POS...

So the only way to enforce null only is to add a dedicated miner module that only works in null to use these crystals.

I remember mining in Y2-ano Fountain years ago in a barge, was the early days when BOB went to delve. The main issue i see in null sec barge mining is the cycle time and when someone drops into local and you bail you loose too much ore.

Better options are always get the cycle time down. Or much better get miner barge drones for the cap indy ships so they can lurk at a pos and have some sort of beacon or roid painter to mark the target for the drones.

Either way you need to do work on making barges more effective overall not just mining ore.

Lets face it put your hands up those that have bubbled the in gate of a dead end system so they have the warp out time needed, (T3 fixed that solution) what about mining in cyno jammed system (Black ops).

There is still a lot of work to get done b4 you see the price of trit drop to 2 IMHO.

Actually if you cut your cycle off early it deposits ore equiv to what you have mined for the period of time into your cargo.
