Current State of Ref/Keys

[Elitex3liminate]

Weird, I remember like 1 month ago when keys were 14 ref, and like 1 year ago when they were 12 or something like that.
Anyways, Ref went down from $.15 to .13 in a month, and keys have also gone from 14 to ~16.33 ref in one month, and will probably rise again soon. (Welcome back, 18 ref keys)
This also means buds will be going down in value of keys. (11 key buds, hi!)
What are your opinions on the current state of keys/ref?

I just don't trade. Problem solved.

The price of keys going up was inevitable in my opinion. The problem that developed over time was you have thousand's of players crafting more metal in to the game every day over the course of sixish years means the value of metal is gonna go down continuously. If metal goes down, then keys go up. When keys go up buds go down. Simply put, it is a constant shift that just makes it a bit harder to trade everyday. It makes it a lot harder to start trading from nothing.
