I like that you classified 4 different types of people interacting.
Also while there may be 50 high quantity volume buyers I bet there are barely 10 consistent buyers on the market and not packs.

I think that the market prices adapted from but were mostly created by a couple particular people.
The prices worked together (or did until gold)

However I thin the logic that chose those prices was a little skewed. Mostly because we have a grasp on just how much better a legendary is than an epic or common. Therefore most pricing is rarity based. And when utility comes into play or we understand stats better these prices will ALL CHANGE

Also like I said the introduction has to reduce the pricing of the rest of the cards.
And finally pricing didn't really up or was very slow to react when the price of steem went down.
This market correlation is almost a must cards are fixed to USD not steem.

Which leads me to this... USD should be the price of cards and I'm not sure why it isn't.

But like i said i'll try to juggle a ton of these things in the video but i'm in an area with almost zero internet ... so that will wait.

Plus you did a way better job of organizing your post... I think i have to do video because otherwise writing something is gonna take FOREVER. haha
