Probably will release them on the market as certain levels are reached. I doubt they will dump them on the market all at once.
If they use this as a reserve to cap the market though, what are they going to do when they run out of banned plex? Maybe that reserve fills it self?
Save a plex, report a bot. |

As he stated the process will be rather open and information will be released in a timely manner. I doubt anyone will be hit with any terrible surprises. On that note of disclosure, I'm not involved in the PLEX market, I subscribe by the year, so I don't have any horses in this market.
I would caution expecting much price rise. The moral suasion, as Claire hinted will have an impact and 10,000 PLEX to cap the market at whatever level they decide is good, isn't something to be ignored. There's only one place that asset can go, on the market. |

That's the number given in the presentation. As for the HD, I don't know. Might be a mention in events and gatherings forum . |

The 10k PLEX held by CCP now (consider it "seized assets") would allow them to remove about 4-5 trillion ISK from the economy as an ISK sink. Which may not be a bad goal.
Well in this special case, they would likely be an ISK sink, or perhaps an ISK reserve that would only be used in the case of PLEX price going too low, an unlikely concern with the current money supply.
The reason it is sink like, in this case, is because the ISK would owned by CCP, and a CCP "central bank" who has very little motivation to buy anything with that ISK, except PLEX in the mentioned low price.
Also, 4-5 trillion ISK is not much impact when the base is expanding by ~26 trillion a month. |
