ThickAsThieves: only one person comes collecting at a time
ThickAsThieves: at least with health insurance and most types,
Namworld: But that seems too risky.
Namworld: Except with insurance, one can insure many balances with the same capital...
Namworld: Same for insurer, if he get less for insuring a balance invested than investing it directly... the latter option sounds more advantageous.
Namworld: Insuring amounts invested somewhere is stupid. Because people won't pay more than they receive from the investment for insurance, else they'd be better off without investing.

benkay: only the operators
benkay: people in the system aren't guaranteed that price for isk out
benkay: how does that actually lock isk to dollar?
mircea_popescu: but otherwise, their numerous macroeconomic problems are notorious.
mircea_popescu: this then somewhat anchors the game currency.
mircea_popescu: this can also be construcred as an in-game item, which can be traded to other players.
mircea_popescu: benkay costs ~15 bucks to buy 30 months of game time.
mircea_popescu: 3. they fixed the isk to the dollar via the plex system (ie, buy game time). this is not something irl goverments can do (the rough equivalent would be they charge for turning on/off the sun)
mircea_popescu: 2. hiring an "economist" is only a solution if you're a journalist looking to be hired as an "economist". otherwise, it does nothing.
mircea_popescu: 1. the value of the isk is careening all over the place.
mircea_popescu: "He also has it figured out better than the Bitcoin dreamers. The online world of EVE wouldn’t work very well if the value of the currency was careening all over the place. That’s why they hired the economist to keep the value of the online currency stable, by means of adjustment of supply."
ThickAsThieves: so when will the US start buying dollars?
ThickAsThieves: did they get 3 questions in and just decide to have sex instead?
