It can pass perfectly fine just like the last one. That one I suggested last week was also low considering my evidence, but it still passed just fine. People have been able to sell keys for above 4.77 refined for at least 2 weeks now, but moderators are slow to accept key prices for good reason. If you ramp up the price too fast then you create uncertainty in the market and cause more people to flood the market buying keys for higher and higher trying to liquidate their refined into keys and allowing sellers to bump up their prices higher and higher to maximize their revenue. The reverse is also true and an example of this can be found in the B.M.O.C. going from 7 keys to 27 keys and then dropping back down to 12 keys between September to January.

"...just stop buying Keys at these ridiculous prices and they will go down soon (I stopped buying them when they started to be more than 3 Ref)"

This suggestion is still an increase in price which is apparent for keys. I'm perfectly well aware that it is below the current market price for keys, but I also know that this site loses people daily simply because of misinformation about why keys are rising. People say backpack.tf is creating a feedback loop between outpost, but I'm simply here to state that now it is not only the sellers that supposedly bump up their price every time backpack.tf accepts keys as higher, but it is also the buyers that do so as well. I am directing this suggestion to the individual with a <$15 wondering why keys are going up and only seeing backpack.tf as the viable reason.

I'm well aware that if I were to make my suggestions like I make my other ones, then I probably would have made it 4.66-4.88 refined such as Hatch Rawer Beryl, but the fact of the matter is that keys are different. One of the main factors that plays with the market model for keys has become people's expectations. People have now expected keys to increase and therefore do not mind paying a scrap "more" than backpack.tf price for a key since they expect that the price will be bumped up to that price later on and it is better to have the key when that happens then to not since it becomes harder and harder to buy a key for a certain set price as time progresses. This expectation has caused keys to have a steady uptick in price since quite frankly there has not really been a decrease in transactions among key buyers and sellers and possibly a higher amount of trading going on as people rush to cut their loses in refined in order to buy a key and hold to it/sell it for higher as the increase continues week after week.

Do not doubt my intelligence on the matter, I simply wish to both inform the public through the largest venue possible along with also causing the smallest ripple in key prices because as a new price gets accepted in causes a wave of change in the trading market for keys.

How exactly do you intend to prove that Long?

Edit: I love how you appear to missing the "five spies burgers and fries has accepted your trade request." Makes me highly doubt the legitimacy of that screenshot and makes me think it was possibly staged.
