Just to be clear: it's 1 bil from EVE to 100 mil in DUST, not the other way around. He has different rates from DUST to EVE. (I believe it was close to 1 DUST to 5-7 EVE last I checked.)

What is the exchange rate?


RIght now rolling at around a 10 to 1 from Eve to Dust.

The ratio should be set by what would be demanded based on the yielded profit. I would consider 100 EVEISK for 1 DustISK but that is comparing *liquid* assets entirely between the 2 domains. There is no demand to get all of your EVE ISK into Dust to create an equal amount of ISK.

The main demand would be from Dust Corporations trying to get their EVE ISK into Dust because they have to fund themselves and PC incursions. The other demand is from newer Dust players wanting the ISK boost from their EVE account, and the final demand is the Proto-Stompers wanting to get the money for their expensive pubstomping tastes.

In terms of the the Dust side going to EVE, I would have to make it an incredibly favorable Dust exchange so they want to give me their Dust ISK for EVE, so I would have to make Pub-match grind in Dust worth more than lv. 4 mission grind in EVE in the exchange rate from them, in short, make Dust worth more in grinding than EVE grinding.

I would simply be the middle man that in reality, organized the transfer of all these players, just at different variables of time




and of course making a cozy profit from it too from the service fee :)

If I did, I would be entirely willing to take in contacts and people to help out, but I would be very shaky with having people actually handle the money. I have plenty of reserves in both sectors of the economy, but obviously I would need to find a few early investors to balance the accounts, naturally, I would compensate them for the opposite account and would consider a dividend. But maybe that is getting ahead of myself.

Knight, I am aware of the comical history of the EVE bank, but that is something that will simply have to deal with as a reputational regulation on the enterprise. This is also an ideal exchange bank atm, not an investment bank or the like. Maybe later would try to buy up different markets like the Aurum or the PLEX market, but for all practical purposes of why this 'bank' would exist, is that it would be to satiate the demand for getting EVE money in Dust and at an exchange rate that would equally make Dusters want to get their Dust money in EVE.]]> Fri, 25 Oct 2013 14:39:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/1141827 <![CDATA[1st Interstellar Bank - by Mac Dac]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1426634#post1426634
Heck I think I might even hop on board and help run the thing (in a lesser job of course like teller or something).

I say you start now to practice and get some knowledge of how to run it. just start off with 5 or 10 account holders and maybe run excel to help manage an accounts.

you could even insure certain fit or vehicles up to a certain amount.

Too whom ever is running this thing hope you follow through and tell us when your hireing.Big smileBig smileBig smile

I would imagine you would have to be a *massive* grinder in the game for the ISK (in both EVE and Dust) for the start up costs. And the transactions would have to be carefully regulated. Like a max 50 mil exchange for the 5 mil dust at a time. Not to suggest that it would be a one time use, but as in they give you 50 mil EVEISK, you give them 5 mil Dust ISK, then they give you another 50 mil EVEISK, and etc. Now this is getting me interesting in it.]]> Fri, 25 Oct 2013 13:26:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/1141650 <![CDATA[1st Interstellar Bank - by Knight Soiaire]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1426475#post1426475

I am loving this idea and wondering if there is any market for a 1st Interstellar Bank in the game. Due to the very high demand to get your EVE currency into Dust Currency and if the rate is 10-1, Dust Currency into EVE.

This is just another beautiful example of the innovative player base with these game mechanics coming about. I also hope that CCP recognizes this if it becomes a more imminent banker industry. But damn this is good stuff.

Any Thoughts?]]> Fri, 25 Oct 2013 13:19:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/1141648
