Come on guys... Why would you post something like 100k gold for ONE COIN. You guys are losing gold, its worth more than that, you're going to wreck the market that way. We should stablish a standar prize for the gold, like 100k = 10 coins but not 1. I've seen crazy people post like 1k gold for 54 coins, if we dont stablish a normal amount, nothing will ever be sold. Anyone agrees?
I used to make a ton undercutting at 200k per 3 coins, 10 coins for a days work, easy mode.Quote:

Yeh as if postin it on a forum will change the whole economy. If you want go ahead and post 10 coins for 100k gold :x even the game beats that price....
I can make 300k gold in 3 days, are you sure about this? 100k gold = 10 coins?
How about, 100k= 2 coins?
I was thinking like 5 coins? It's not too much, and it's half of what molten charges for 100k gold.Quote:

You will not change anything here. Just ignore the market for now and learn to use it as you go further.
I would give you an introductory economics class but you'd have to pay me 50$ an hour.
I don't need an economics class thank you. I understand that it is a free market, I understand how a free market works, but the point the OP is trying to get across is that if enough people follow a standard, take my 100k for 5 coins for example, more people will follow that standard. Sure there will be people that sell 100k for 3 coins or 2 coins or whatever, but it's a starting point in having a more controlled fluctuation of the prices.Quote:

This set a standard for buyers after that, set the standard for their stock. ( and yes I understand that prices fluctuate, but the general rule of thumb for the stock exchange is buy low sell high, and most stocks stay within a reasonable distance of their "standard" when the business is in a good standing)
The same thing can be said about the gold for sale on the marketplace, if people can spend less than 10 coins on 100k gold, they will, and that opens up the market for whoever is selling the gold. Why have 100k gold for 10+ coins when you are losing business that way? It is just simply illogical.

I bought 120k gold for 1 coin and i find such price fair. Coins are REAL money and some hoarders earn millions of gold over months with their speculations so they still can get a lot of coins for that.
Also, take a note that enabling gold for coins in shop is HUGE devaluation of coins valute, and overall value of donation (which in long run can be shoot in the foot for molten).
Those who want more coins per gold (like you OP!) are just extremely greedy, because they were just given a chance to get coins, reserved for donors until now, but its NOT ENOUGH for then and they want more..
^ proves that you understand nothing of the free market. Stock prices are determined at first by how much each founding members put into the company to fund it. Later on that small company wants to expands and needs funding and that's where stocks comes in and they are selling bits and pieces of the company. The people owning stocks of that company are called shareholders and prices of a stock is determined by how profitable the company is in terms of EBITDA and Net interest. And this is just the simplest idea of stock. IF you set a "standard" price for your company's stock and your company isnt even worth that much, no one will buy your stock. And you will have no funding to continue your operation.Quote:

Spoiler:Show
This "standard" you are talking about is called a fixed cost or fixed exchange rate since we're talking abt a commodity. Unless you're a government (molten devs in this case) you do not simply set a standard.
Like I said, you all can set as many standards and anyone who agrees with it can do so. But I and many other business person will sell at a much desirable price.
Contrary to your belief, you DO need an economics class before you attempt to use economics to argue again.
dat macroeconomics class ggQuote:

Coins the limiting factor are still in Molten's hands.
Imagine the demand for coins if molten releases it for non-donors. Or am i missing something
