Thanks!
I’m not known with the eve fest videos, do you happen to have a link (and approximate timestamp)?

Someone in this thread is lying.

Of course. If someone in this thread accidentally hit on a legit way of making ISK (like trading, for instance) and it happened to be how I made my ISKies, I’d lie my ass off as well telling them it’s dead. The less competition, the more profit you take home.

I used to tell anyone who’d listen that training up characters for sale (back before extractors) was the stupidest thing you could do. Meanwhile, I was raking in billions a month doing exactly that. And back then billions a month put you solidly in the 1% as most of the cash fountains we have now were not even concepts yet.

The thing is, trading is not a secret, it is not new and it is capped at 300 orders per character. And there is no way for one player to cover the entire market.

The secret to trading is buy low, sell high in large scale. Pretty simple. The cost is time you are willing to spend on it. And my personal time limit is around 30 min to 1 hour per day and that is enough for me. I could scale up my operation to 100b per month if I wanted but I for one do not want to have 10+ characters trading every single day. I rather uninstall the game.
