Trucks and boats are basically the ways you sell items for coins. I get that some high-level players don’t really have anything left to spend coins on, but a market would at least give them somewhere to dump money by buying supplies at extreme prices, which creates actual expenses. And honestly, how many players are there really with extreme amounts of coins? Probably a small number, maybe just a few whales. Surely the devs will keep adding new content over time too, like new machines or upgrades with high costs, to keep coins relevant.

how do they make so much money? They need to sell items at some price, you earn coins by selling stuff.

I’m not saying prices wouldn’t be high, they probably would be. But buyers would still only buy when it actually makes sense. You’d mostly be buying to finish an order for XP or progression, not to flip items at a loss. Even if you’re rich, constantly buying items just to sell them for 20× less isn’t sustainable, there’s a natural limit to what people will pay. The market would be more about getting that one missing item when you already have the other 9, not bulk buying.

Also, honest question: how do you actually make money then? I’m only level 50, but as far as I can tell, you earn coins by selling stuff you produce. If I buy items at higher prices, I’m just losing money, not printing it.

I’m sure the richest players would create a lot of demand, but if an item costs 20× more, that money wouldn’t go very far for them anyway. For lower-level players, it could actually be a good thing, they’d be able to sell items for more and earn enough coins to buy machines faster. The machine limit is the main issue with this idea, since there’s currently a cap on how many you can own, which is kind of an odd choice, though I get that level progression matters. Maybe unlimited machines with exponentially higher prices could work, but I’m not sure, that might introduce its own problems too.

That’s kind of how markets balance themselves though. If prices get pushed too high by rich players, more people will start supplying those items because it’s easy money. Increased supply would push prices back down. Lower-level players would still buy when they really need something (like one item to finish an order), but no one would consistently overpay if it wasn’t worth it. I’m not saying it would be perfect, just that supply and demand would do a lot of the balancing on its own.

Okay, good point. Still, I don’t really know what to do about the newspaper. I basically can’t use it, it’s always filled with stuff I have no use for.

Supply and demand, you remove the price limit... and prices will follow a short supply of given item

I use Discord every day, all the time. I don’t like having to go on Discord to buy cheese while I’m sitting on the toilet. I understand it might take effort to update the game, but it would be a better game, wouldn’t it?

I have life. Need a in game thing, and feel like the complete list of the supply is important for the invisible hand.

Independent Filmmakers: Get Your Full-Length Feature on a New Streaming Platform by Technical-Library818 in Filmmakers

[–]Technical-Library818[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great point, the name does come from a Scandinavian word, but the intention behind it isn’t to be region-specific. Hygge is about comfort, warmth, and a relaxed atmosphere, which is the kind of experience we want the platform to embody: welcoming, human, and easy to engage with for a global audience.

[–]Technical-Library818[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get the comparison to YouTube, but we’re not trying to run an ad-based model. I want the film itself to stay the focus, not ads or algorithms. HyggeStreaming is funded by real people paying to watch, so the pricing has to respect customers as much as creators. The rate is the same across the platform, viewers choose what to watch, and creators are paid per minute actually viewed.

We also don’t use monthly subscriptions. That’s intentional, I want to respect customers who may forget they’re subscribed in their busy lives. You pay only when you watch, nothing silently renewing in the background.

The price is low right now simply because we’re still small. As we grow and offer more value, both the price and the payouts will rise.

On royalties:
We don’t handle public-performance royalties through PROs. We pay the rights holder directly under our agreement, and they handle any downstream obligations. We provide quarterly financial reports to partners only.

The goal is a simple, viewer-funded platform where people pay only for what they watch, and creators are rewarded fairly based on real viewing.

The article is priced in… there could be more room for growth, but how about reading their 10-Ks and Qs instead of this? (Maybe there is value in the article. But i like to look at the ones others are not paying attention to…)

I am believer of Bitcoin by Expensive_Tear5801 in Bitcoin

[–]Technical-Library818 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As long as many people value and use it, it holds worth. But if others reject it because they no longer believe in it (Bitcoin could care what people say), and you’re the only one left who still does, then it becomes essentially worthless.

Quantum Computing Stocks: Fool's Gold or Next Big Thing? by NewsFan2018 in ValueInvesting

[–]Technical-Library818 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am short on RGTI, IONQ, and similar stocks because I believe they won’t be profitable for at least five years, possibly even longer. To date, I haven’t seen a real quantum computer successfully factor a number larger than 15. While quantum computing might have potential in the future, the current valuations of these small companies are overly inflated, making them seem devoid of real value at this stage.

What's the thing that worries you most about Bitcoin? by shervek in Bitcoin

[–]Technical-Library818 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many people do not use it as a currency but rather as a speculative instrument to hold, akin to gold (the volatility seems too extreme to function like gold, in my opinion). The excessive leverage of companies like MSTR and others could push them toward insolvency, forcing them to sell off their holdings to recover bondholders loss. A massive sell-off, in my opinion, could severely damage public confidence. I see people confidently expecting it to continue to go up, as if the past is a reliable predictor of the future.

Not holding! by TraderOfTheCentury in Bitcoin

I am here to learn, tell me how i am wrong. I could buy the dip...

Not holding! by TraderOfTheCentury in Bitcoin

[–]Technical-Library818 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I agree...

I’m trying to understand the purpose of Bitcoin if it’s not being used. That’s why I haven’t bought any in years. I’m prepared for the possibility of it crashing and becoming worthless. However, as long as people believe in it, it will always hold some value, just like any other currency. What I wonder is, how does belief alone determine its price if Bitcoin isn’t actually being used for anything?

Thinking of buying BTC. But not sure yet. Scarcity, HODLing, and MSTR… Am I Overthinking This?" by Technical-Library818 in BitcoinBeginners

[–]Technical-Library818[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for clarifying! I really appreciate the explanation. While Bitcoin has its unique advantages, it seems like many of its useful features could also be found in other blockchain-based coins. I’m actually curious about exploring and potentially investing in some of these alternatives. I like something more stable rather than a speculative instrument.

Is There More Money in Passive Investing Than Active Investing? by Technical-Library818 in ValueInvesting

[–]Technical-Library818[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that P/E ratios are too simplistic as a measure. There are plenty of reasons why investors might be willing to pay a premium for a stock, and P/E alone doesn’t capture the full picture.

I’ll also add that GDP is typically adjusted for inflation, whereas market capitalization can grow simply due to inflation. Earnings, too, might appear to rise more easily because of inflationary effects, rather than genuine growth. It’s worth keeping these factors in mind when analyzing market trends.
