this economy is fucked

[Man]

This is an interesting thread. Was going to make a long reply about what is really happening, but Brass essentially hit the nail on the head with everything that he said. I can attest that I've given literally hundreds of thousands of coins to Ban over the past couple of months. Within our group, we have a system where he gets all the bone crates that drop when we do events, and we occasionally feed him coins to open additional crates. In kind, I receive all of the leviathan and seraph crates, and others receive their respective crates (which give a large amount of legendaries, which I turn into coins, which I usually give to Ban, along with the other players in our group.) Given the coin return on Bone Crates, Misery Crates, the perks, the fact that we have about four people constantly feeding him coins, the selling of the godlikes that he gets to other players for more coins, and his donation amount which is (at the very least) in the hundreds, it's not surprising he's been able to open a fair amount of crates in a short period of time.

Think of him as the progress of five players doing all meaningful events almost every day for months. That's why he's so rich.
