"...removed from the game...over 30 Tech II BPOs..."
Why? Now those BPO's are missing. Shouldn't they get redistributed somehow instead?
Interesting write-up, thanks.

From the numbers in the blog I conclude that those reactors produced materials which normally would need 128 dysprosium/promethium moons.
So the amount of 128 dys/pro moons were pumped into the market for quite a while and especially when the numbers for the alchemy-stuff were fixed. The whole alchemy is then based on faulty numbers.
Is there any chance that alchemy will be revisited in the future? Maybe different input/output amount or the <0.3 system restriction relaxed?

Some facts about ferrofluid and dysporite - both materials directly involved in making ferrogel and fermionic condensates. Both materials are intermediate materials and made directly from moon materials.
Conventional production of ferrofluid
dysprosium + hafnium
costs: 82.000 isk/unit
Alchemy production of ferrofluid
cadmium + hafnium
costs: 63.000 isk/unit
Conventional production of dysporite
dysprosium + mercury
costs: 84.000 isk/unit
Alchemy production of dysporite
cadmium + mercury
costs: 64.500 isk/unit
In above numbers the pos fuel costs are already included.
Alchemy produces the intermediate materials in much smaller quantities, that means that you need a lot more (20 times more) reactors to produce the materials with alchemy than with conventional means.

I noticed for weeks on now that fermionic condensates are sold in Jita for much cheaper prices than building costs.
At current prices the fermionic condensates production with a pos causes at least 500k isk loss per hour.
Can CCP please investigate this? This is not a normal market fluktuation because, something strange is going on there. I said the same about ferrogel before the pos exploit was revealed.
Could it be that something is still not working as intended, that still some exploit is possible? Or could it be that there is still some large cache of illegal material available which is now sold?
Ferrogel seems to be fine. Only the condensates are strange.

I think I've got at least a couple of dozen researched BPO's that if I built the items from mineral cost - I'd be losing ISK.
What's your point?
And, are you building from it? No...
Believe me, those guys who manage the pos and moon reactions certainly KNOW what they are doing and they do not sell with loss.
It can happen that you sell with a loss sometimes because a sudden price spike, yes. But not for weeks on. There is something going on.
WTF is wrong with poining CCP towards it so that they can have a closer look??? If they look and say, all okay, then fine. But they better have again a closer look.

My only problem with demanding that CCP investigate every item sold at a loss is that they'd never have anything else to do.
Of course I am not demanding anything. I just suggest that they have a look there because it still looks unregular for weeks now.
If they take suggestions or not is up to them, not my business.
