On the other hand, 2 weeks from now, when all the Dilithium from the current Crystalline Entity event starts to hit the Dilithium Exchange...
It's not unreasonable to think that Cryptic decided to rerun the CCE in order to pump some Dilithium into the economy before Season 8 and the new Fleet Holdings hit.

That is too much for my price range. Lately I been using my Dil for Dil store purchases on gear. When the prices drop again I will buy them. What dil I collect, which don't hit the max on refining. Isn't worth the price on the market for now.
To me its a good time to get some Dil store items. Fed Eng is getting gear. KDF Eng is getting a Vor'cha for Lv50. And my Romulan just hit lv 50. So that will be more gear to get.

Well as I hinted the higher it goes the more likely people are to buy Zen with real cash to convert to dilithium.

I think you're putting the cart before the horse. The reason why the price is rising is because people aren't converting Zen to diltihium - because there's nothing they want to spend dilithium on right now...

Yes the lack of players recently in the game = lots of people not buying dilithium as well. Lots of LTS might also be hoarding their monthly stipend. These are reasons it's going up - lots of dilithium still being refined but not used and not as much zen available.
Cryptic has said it wont manipulate the market directly(it does indirectly through sales/dilithium events/dilithium sinks added), so that means that there is probably much less Zen flowing into the market right now.
Yeah a bit too late - If Cryptic made a 20% Zen sale - easily access - via credit card and pay pal and steam - then it will bring the price down fast.
Yeah the last one caught me off guard and i lost a fair amount of value on it. I was expecting a 130 selloff and never made it there cause the sale dropped the price into the toilet after a buyin at 105
=/ I was mad, but eh thems the breaks
