Admist all this talk of market making and economics, one idle evening during the summer of 2022 I wondered, “could I do arbitrage on a Minecraft server?” The answer was not only yes, but it was incredible to witness the extent to which by doing essentially nothing but trades I was able to accumulate tens of thousands in virtual currency. I’m not going to say which server this was performed on, but it should be straightforward to do the same in other economy-based servers.
