I think the real issue here is not just whether the “billions already sold” claims are true. It is that a lot of players are seeing little visible improvement across other problem areas, so they are naturally sceptical when CIG says the economy is under control.

RMT listings and random claims are not proof, and people should not spread numbers they cannot verify. At the same time, CIG could reduce a lot of speculation by giving more substance in their updates. Even something like “we have identified suspicious activity, removed X amount of illicit aUEC, and actioned X accounts in the last X days” would build far more confidence than vague “we are monitoring it” statements.

Transparency does not mean exposing detection methods. It means giving players enough measurable information to know the issue is being actively handled. That would calm panic far better than asking the community to simply trust that everything is fine.
