Economy — is my wallet still meaningful?

Weekly peak concurrent users on Tranquility, mirrored from eve-offline.net (Chribba's tracker, running since 2007). The 2013 peak around 65 k coincides with the Battle of 6VDT-H / Burn Jita era; the slow erosion through Scarcity (2020-2022) and the partial recovery from Equinox (2024) onward are both visible.

The two orange dashed rules mark moments that reshaped the PLEX market. Click a rule for the full story: 9 May 2017 — PLEX 500:1 conversion · 7 Jul 2025 — Global PLEX Market launch.

Sources: EVE Ref market-history archives (backfill, 2014-onwards) and ESI /markets/{region}/history/ (forward refresh). Old PLEX × (1/500) normalised to the post-Ascension series so the line is continuous.

Velocity is the ratio of monthly transaction volume to outstanding money supply — high values mean ISK is changing hands frequently (active economy), low values mean ISK is parked in wallets and not moving. The slow drop from ~0.7 in 2017 to ~0.3 in 2022 is the "stuck money" signature of the Scarcity era; the partial recovery since then tracks the post-Equinox income return.

The eight raw minerals refined from asteroid ore, Jita monthly average. Logarithmic Y-axis because the basket spans four orders of magnitude — Tritanium sits at single-digit ISK while Morphite (refined from mercoxit) is closer to 20,000 ISK. Switch to the indexed view to compare relative trajectories on a shared 100-anchor; toggle PLEX in to see how the cap-shop benchmark tracks the raw basket. The Scarcity → Equinox → Catalyst sov-rework arc shows up as the broad 2020-2025 elevation followed by a partial come-down.

Wormhole gas-cloud harvest. C28/C32/C50/C60/C70 are ladar-cloud Fullerite gases that feed Tech-3 strategic-cruiser production. C320 is a higher-value rare gas tied to specific T3 subsystems. Prices are sensitive to wormhole-resident population and the periodic re-balances of T3 production cost.

Refined ice products — the inputs to fuel blocks that run citadels, capital ships, and jump drives. Liquid Ozone burns through every fuel block. The four isotopes are racially-specific (Helium for Caldari, Hydrogen for Minmatar, Nitrogen for Amarr, Oxygen for Gallente) and price-track each race's structure footprint. Strontium Clathrates fuel structure shield-reinforce timers — its spikes correlate with major sov-war activity.

Refined R64 moon products. Loparite, Xenotime, Monazite, and Carnotite were introduced in October 2017 with the Lifeblood expansion's moon-mining rework — the chart lines start there. The Equinox skyhook era (June 2024) reshaped where and how these are extracted; relative trajectories shift around that boundary. R64 typically sits in the few-hundred-k-to-low-million ISK range per unit; lower-tier R32/R16/R8 moons are not shown here.

Planetary Interaction value chain — three P3 inputs (Robotics, Mechanical Parts, Coolant) and three P4 outputs (Wetware Mainframe, Self-Harmonizing Power Core, Broadcast Node). P3 sits at ~10-80 k ISK per unit; P4 at ~2 M ISK; the ~100x scale gap reads cleanly on log axis. Switch to the indexed view to compare relative trajectories — useful for "is my PI farm still viable?" since it abstracts away the P3-vs-P4 absolute-price gulf.
