More then a million players, farming. ECONOMY WILL DIE IN 2 WEKKS!

I think you really don't understand that more than a million people will farm every single day , thausands of items each. The economy in the game will die before it even has time to form. Simply because there will be hundreds of thousands of each item in the game. Just like every league dies in two months, it will happen here too, but much faster, because the influx of people is incredibly huge. We need to get rid of them somehow...
I see only two solutions to the problem:
1. give players the opportunity to donate valuable items, on an equal basis with other players, for some kind of reward. This way we will be able to not devalue most of the loot in the game, as happens in poe1
2. durability of items, currency for repair, destruction of items to get this currency. Combining broken items into one. Drop of items of different durability. Debuffs on broken items. Currency at the price of a mirror, making the item permanently unbreakable.

If you have any ideas on how else to save the economy in the game, please give an alternative, and don't just say that it's a bad idea. After all, if you don't have an alternative, then these are the only correct solutions to breathe new life into the economy.

Has this game ever even had a million concurrent players? Steam is very widespread and the game only hits around 60-70k players at leaguestart (average) on Steam, even with the peak of all time being 220k it's just not realistic to claim 1 million at PoE 2 EA start. Even if 10x as many people used the standalone launcher or other sources, the game would still not even be close to 1 million average players.

I think you need to cite some numbers for this outlandish claim

You mean I won't have to mortgage my house to buy a super rare item, because there will be millions of them out there? Yeah, that sounds terrible.
your logic is kinda flawed

sure more ppl playing means more items, but it means more items are needed too
I wont sell single orb or buy any items from other players but that just me
Check out the X (twiter) GGG posted a video that early acces reached more then a million people and keep groing , and that they cant even imaginve that amount of players . So they expekting a big queue on the weekends . So yes before telling me that i taking information from my mind, plz check it out yourself and give a solution for the economy problem.
here is the video

I just went to GGG's twitter account and could not find the video you are talking about. The only reference to player numbers I could find was this:

Path of Exile: Crucible hit a new record of 321,180 concurrent players, beating our previous record by over 50,000 concurrent players.

Thanks so much to everyone who has joined us so far.

Can you link me the video you are talking about?
ciel289#7228 Unlike yours, my logic is one step ahead. I already thought of all the possible options before you even thought about these things. Basically, you are not able to understand that you do not need more items, because when you equip your good bow, you do not need more good bows, and you give them away, and since millions of people farm with you, these bows will be so numerous that they will be worth nothing. You already equip this bow, you do not need it, and other people do not need it. I asked a question about the solution to the problem, but these are not comments, apparently there is no solution, and my option is the only correct one.

Thank you, honestly very surprising to see this. PoE 1 is free, and hasn't had these kinds of numbers.

Now PoE 2 is a 30$ EARLY ACCESS and suddenly a million people are buying it? what is going on lol
