Hey mate, I read your initial post 3 days ago and have been back everyday since in the hope to see someone saying your logic is flawed or that its not true blah blah blah. Reason being the scenario you brought up is very compelling and I had hope someone much smarter then me will come and dispel it.

What you presented is actually quite frightening as the bots technically do not need to own any cards and still make money just via renting. In the end, it will be a case of bots overwhelming humans and human interest waning and all the asset values drop drastically.

Was thinking of putting a decent sum of money into the game to restart playing, but might hold back given what you have describe.
