- Ever since the acquisition of Growtopia by Ubisoft, the majority of the community knows how new and pre-existing issues have progressively gotten worse over the past few years. Among those issues, there is a notable problem, a crisis rather, which remains nearly impossible to fix and counter: Inflation.

Hello everyone. I hope you enjoyed the video if you're done watching it! Do note that some parts of the video are my own personal opinion and based on my research and observations. It is expected that each and every one of us would have our own perspectives on the matter thus if ever discussions arise, remember to always stay civil and respectful. Thank you!
This video is really good keep grinding my friend
JIMNOTSIMP AHHHHHHHHH ❤
This is much better content than the usual profit guides, and a break from the very common new item reviews. Good job
Growtopia is just digital Zimbabwe
You absolute make sense
Bro this is so true, i remember back then when having 1 dl was hugeee, me and my friends had a max of 20 wls. I remember megaphones being 17 wls. I remember that if u had 10 dls that means u were the best in the game. Ahh rip these days.
Yeah man, pure dls and true rich not like todays fake rich cause dls can be bought now for real money
@@kevceballos2017 it could be bought since way back and it’s always cheaper than in game currency 🗿
Bro 1 dl in 2016 was so good
This!!! I came back recently after a bunch of years off and items that were basically worthless back then are worth quite a bit if added up.. it blows my mind. There's so many rich players now too. I feel really left behind
Getting a world lock is A BIG DEAL! Yeha those days
This is too underrated! Sadly the majority of Growtopia's community aren't old enough to understand any of this 😅
the majority of the community is indo/turkish
They just dont want to admit it, I've played since I was 4 😂 even thought I had nothing and ran around, it was still enjoyable. It was better when I somewhat understood it and now, im just chatting and making worlds with my friends
They just dont pay attention enough to prices and how much people selling their items and they just think that people want it more so they just keep the prices at whatever they see, so the prices keep rising up cause some of the sellers are oblivious to the fact that the bots are manipulating the prices so then, the prices keep on rising
I quit the game around 2 years back and randomly stumbled upon this video. God damn I wish there were more high quality documentaries/video essays like this back then. Keep up the good work, I'm excited to see more from you in the future.
Yo Bro can i get some items cuz i started again
@@SadKurd Don't beg
@@RozzWasHere im just asking
Me too i stopped playing around mid 2020
Same. I looked at what my "items of the month" were worth now, and I can't say I'm unimressed. Notable ones are: rayman's fist (about 250 DL), that zeus lightning scarf thing (2nd IOTM and about 210 DL), and the royal lock (I don't even know how much it's worth but it's over 250 DL). So basically I went from about worth 5 dls then, to now over 700 dls💀 anyone know if I can sell my account or smth? Pretty sure it'd be worth a lot.
i took a three year break and the inflation shocked me, my teeny angel wings which were 1-2 wl's were suddenly 4-5 meanwhile my ice calf which was 4-5 turned to 1-2, not to mention the crap load of old awesome worlds turned into mindless over priced vending worlds like the world growtopia and dragon. its very sad
also seed :((
this is so true I thought about if I made better choices few years back id be so much richer lol
Don't quit again, you can still play
Its 7 now
@@amgus teeny?
Decided to revisit GT again after quitting 2-3 years ago. Safe to say that everything you mentioned in this video is true. Literally everything is MUCH more expensive and the amount of bots (and various new things they are able to do like auto msg, etc) is annoying + making the game worse imo. The one thing that did seem to stay the same was the server stability, its just as bad as i remember.
I feel like there are so many ways that they could combat bots
I disagree, inflation and games downfall is 99% on Ubisoft, their mismanagement of botting, overly making the game pay 2 play. Without broken items or dirt cheap gem prices there would be no iniciative for new players to macro, also price manipulation would not be such of a problem if it werent for the stupid amount of worldlocks coming in the game all the time
A new player would most likely take multiple months to get 50$ worth of gems
took me a year to get 2 dls, and after that i was hacked back from scratch now and the grind is extremely not newbie friendly
i recently joined again and in 4 days i round up 2 dls
@@bunie3780 your 2dls will be equivalent to 10wls 5 years ago. In this case, it’s because bfg was made popular.
@@bunie3780 What is your strat?
I started playing GT back in 2014 and I think the atmosphere of the game now is what scares me the most. I know I’ve gotten older, but the game just does not feel the same ever since ubisoft took control. No light competition in games, no genuine farming, and a lack of real communication between people (and just friendships in general). I would sit for hours and play GT because of that. Now theres a rush to have all the most expensive items/biggest worlds in order to be on top, but once you get those, what are you left with? The game is over. 🤷🏽♀️
I finally started playing Growtopia again after a few years, and the inflation was literally mind blowing. The teeny devil that i bought for 16 wls were 60wls now?? Half of my items went up in price while the other half went way down. And not the mention half of the worlds in Growtopia are link worlds and vending worlds makes me so mad. Like what happened to standing in worlds talking to people trying to sell your items? People overprice stuff so much in the vending machines and the games no fun unless your rich. So disappointing.
Yeah,all the thing in game already went up and diamond locks is worthless
Woah! Just got your video from my recommendation, and this got me hooked! I have been wondering for quite some time about this infamous crisis of Growtopia, and your case study is executed greatly. I also liked the way you went through some different section for in depth information that made connecting the dots easy.
You earned a sub!
Surprisingly, a game that I've played since like, 2016 (and even a youtuber) is actually teaching me more about economy than school is /j

Thats because you dont concentrate at school lol

Great video! Glad you made it! Hopefully Ubisoft sees this and take notes.
this is the best growtopia video essay ive ever seen, and just an awesome video essay in general. love this and am so looking forward to more of your videos, man. this took me way back to my early childhood while also using an economic lens to understand that feeling of why the game lost its magic over time
This is High quality video you make is just unbelievable you deserve more subscribers!
Nice to see a Growtopia TH-camr where my brain isn’t rotting from watching it
I posted this on tery's community post : Great video and he did raise some important issues. though he targetted inflation as the main issue in growtopia and said it was caused by manipulation. i dont think inflation is the reason why the game is less enjoyable, but it is a big reason why beginners find it hard to get a foothold. Also inflation is the average increase in price caused by an injection of currency in the market, it is not caused by manipulation. The injection of currency means an increase in world locks, which can only be obtained through gem purchases or in-game purchases. So in reality, hyper inflation was caused by automation of gem making in growtopia from bots and magplants, and especially gem selling, as that made more world locks available in the market. this made players with 10 diamond locks (which was basically the richest u could be in 2013) look like absolute noobs. Now tackling the real issue in growtopia, it is simply the fact that the game is in its final stretch (which may last another 5 years). The issue today is that the original players of the game are getting old, and generally enjoy the game less. A massive chunk of the growtopia community has turned the game into a money making business. there are very few new players, simply because the game is outdated which is normal. So what was once a purely social game, has turned into a boring money making game where people are either playing for nostalgia, or they get bored and play casinos, where their inevitably lost diamond locks are sold for money. The reason why diamond locks have become cheaper in relation to real money is because supply has grown exponentially due to inflation and the fact that many people are selling, so theres low demand. In the end, reality is there is no solution for growtopia. The game has no marketing so there is a very small amount of new players. Old players will get bored as it is a kid's oriented game. The biggest fact here is that ubisoft wouldnt change a thing even if they could, because they are making money off of in-game purchases regardless. They lower their costs by keeping the game low maintenance, and make money to supply their more important projects instead of caring about an obviously dying game.
I appreciate your insight!
No kidding get 1-10dls easy depends on you guys! th-cam.com/video/4GXa9hFJ1sQ/w-d-xo.html
startes playing in 2014 and quit a few years ago. This game taught me about how to avoid scams, i will never forget the time i spent in this game
I mean any game can teach you a lessons even if it’s a negative experience.. I’d say growtopia is actually very damaging cause it kinda fucks your brain up into thinking about digits rather than creativity and stuff like that..
u deserves more attention and subs, EXCELLENT WORK!
nice video and clear explaining , learned a lot from this video and found it very entertaining , keep up the good work!
This was very informative and really great production. You just earned a new sub sir.
this video is mad underrated you put so much time and effort in it i dont doubt it. it should have more traffic in my oppinion, it also put real life infaltion in perspective. amazing vid keep it up

Hi there. The example was to represent the struggle of most players to afford anything due to the unexplainable occurrances in the game's economy caused by inflation. Profiting can sometimes be hard due to the always-changing META in profiting caused by an unstable supply and demand which somehow results to some of the players resorting in begging for donations whether it'd be real or not. Basically, there's inconsistency that makes things difficult for new players to progress - I happen to find that player by coincidence on the day of recording and was reminded on how some players would have to beg for the cheapest of items in the game. It can apply to any item of any worth! ^_^
Awesome video dude! It's very detailed, goodjob! Yoi just earned a new subscriber.
tis is a really well researched vid, keep it up bro!!!!
I just revisited it again after 5 year and it just made me feel terrible. All of the previously popular worlds are either dead, full of bots or replaced by a herd of vending machines. If I do find a place with real people theres a language barrier :(
W jimp for putting efforts on this vid, I really enjoyed this one
Great videos man. Love ur stuff. Very underrated
Your video is high quality, i like how u talk and i like how u go over everything
You put lots of effort in this video hope your channel grow faster . You deserve more
Good job on the video! You deserve much more subs 💥
My man u definitely deserves alot more subs than any of the other growtopian youtubers out there. I've never been so engaged in a video before. Most gt youtubers tend to just use NCS music and have never spoken or done any videos like these so it's definitely nice to see. And yes price inflation, I remember when rayman was only 150wls when it was first debuted in iotm. Kinda lost brain cells seeing that its over 200dls now.
and its like 500 dls now💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Back in 2018 I owned rayman, royal lock and gscan. I was scammed my rayman and sold my royal lock and gscan to make some money back. I wouldve never thought the "value" would increase tenfold like this. (funny, because i got scammed my rayman trying to sell it for 11 DLS. ELEVEN!!)
My man gives me my old economics classes all over again
I just got back 2 days ago after quitting way back from 2018 and I can say that I really feel left out on this game. Im a noob and dont like focusing so much on profiting im rather just wanting to enjoy the game but cant because most things come with the price, world locks. This was such an amazing video I was very hooked and educated if I was a teacher id let you dismiss early lol
You can still play bro. Its not hard to become rich nowdays. But instead of trying to get rich only, you can also have fun by hanging out with friends or going to popular worlds and chilling there(like LOVE).
The game might be unfair to you, but the players won't be
I cam back a few days ago. I stopped playing a year ago because my friends scammed my magplants and worlds. I had 124 wls in my acc and wanted to buy a devil which at time was 90-105. I went to buydevil and asked a guy selling how much was it. THE GUY FUCKING SAID 5 FUCKING DLS FOR A FUCKING DEVIL WHICH YOU CAN FUCKING GET IN THE FUCKING HALLOWEEN EVENT.

this just feels sad back in the day it was not about the networth or wls it was about friendships you made along the way you played and had fun with random ppl.
hi! i made the tiktok about you hahaha, just wanna let you know you did a great job with this video. your research and effort is definitely seen. subscribed :)
Very well said! Ubisoft should see this video
Mainly inflation is happening because of how easy it is to get dls now a days. If they would stop botting (which is not hard to do) for example if someone is farming, every 100-200blocks Broken could have a human verification which will be annoying but it will help a ton. Also make wls cost more gems like 5k each and have a diamond lock sink such as regular megaphones not obtainable and lock bots 2 dl or smth people will still buy it (cuz most people buying it anyways already have a ton of dls to waste) or a cool cosmetic which only last for a certain time such as a new pet which upon usage lasts 1 day make it exp like 3 dls and untradeable so it’s not common because people tend to buy stuff that no one has and since it’s new a lot of people will buy to try at least and then bgls will be gone in a few days. Then make the item last only a season and make a new item so it is consistently bought and also allow it to be seen in display blocks because people would like to show it off without using it
I'm not convinced price manipulation is the main cause of inflation. Your hypothesis lacks explanatory power; it doesn't explain why the total amount of WLs in the game has increased drastically, and it does not explain why the black market price of DLs for money have been dropping for the entire history of the game. Better explanations of the cause of inflation are item duplication and farming (manual or auto), because both of these actually inject WLs into the system, which explains the increase in total WLs in the game, and why DLs used to cost $7 each in 2016 but $0.45 now in 2022.
You also have not shown that inflation has made new players' game experience worse. Typical items that players need to enjoy the game are basic clothes to get each modification (e.g. pickaxe, ripper wings), farmables to earn wls (e.g. chandelier), and blocks to create their world with. All of these items are far easier and cheaper to obtain now compared to in 2015. The hyperinflating items like IOTMs are luxury items that are not crucial for a good game experience. Overall your video has decent editing but lacks insight.
First and foremost, I'm glad you're providing your insight on the matter.
To explain, price manipulation and supply and demand are two key reasons why prices change often. You are correct, the botting issue and exploits directly inject the gems and world locks into the economy. However, no one knows how huge the problem of botting is exactly. No one knows how much of the gems and/or world locks are distributed throughout the economy every day. Mainly because they are on the "dark side" of Growtopia. The prices of items will not change if it's missing the two key reasons that I just previously mentioned. The prices does not necessarily increase as the supply in gems and world locks increase. It's not entirely linear in other words, well, that's what I've observed. You will only wake up one day to find out that someone or a group of people had manipulated the prices of items (especially those items that are limited as I mentioned in the video).
Admittedly, the reason that I provided about the prices of DLs dipping from a few dollars to now a few cents could be wrong as the world locks that are often produced illegally through botting and exploits usually get sold in the black market, clearly showing the oversupply of world locks resulting in a dip (supply and demand).
It is hard to show the effect of inflation in the video itself because they come in several ways. One can imagine how hard it is to progress in Growtopia and catch up with someone with 100 DLs without saying that the game is tiring and boring - most players would quit mid-way. While it's true that obtaining hyperinflating luxury items will not really contribute to a good game experience, it gives players a goal to work for, but even before they're able to accomplish them, they will most likely feel bored and tired & may even claim that it is not worth their time.
Glad you liked the editing!
dls dropped in price due to many suppliers and dupes ( we can just see how covid effected it, in 2020 when covid started price was 1.5$ per dl and many lost their job = many will look at ways to find a way to make money which growtopia came in handy. Its not best income for more wealthier countries but for 3rd countries i think its way above monthly income of normal working people. As someone who knows quite a bit of "black market" and know many big resellers i can assure it's due to many players make a living of growtopia which produces dozens of bgls daily + dupes and so called " private exploits" which many individuals abuse and kept for them self so they can make more money ofc. So they supplies resellers at low price which later on resellers sell for under market reseller value and it just drops bit by bit. also 1 example is valentine bgls were 50eur and few days before valentine they were around 75-80eur ( buyers price ). ) Well i hope most of stuff were explained and others understands now how broken this game actually is.

oh hi leeisateam. more battles 2 content on your stream?
@Leeisateam i 100% agree and i made a comment which includes more important reasons why growtopia is dying/less enjoyable
as a "very old player" this is a well made video. i too played again after years and the teeny angles just was laughable. never have i came back and did not stay for a little bit or at least thought it still was a good game
great video man keep it up
i remember in the old times a single world lock is so hard to achieve
nowadays its so easy to get.
i also remember the time i bought rayman for 92wls
god damnit😂, i have been plan to make this video since last year but procrastinated too much and with the almost exact thumbnail idea😅
well thought out point, gonna made mine soon hopefully
ive been playing since 2013-2014, i saw the prices go up, saw the prices go down, i witnessed the creation of the first IOTM.
my biggest regret is not buying a growscan before it skyrocketed in price.
i got GAUT about a year ago now i'm on a wild goose chase for making enough wls for growscan. not even close lmao
God i miss when even small locks were considered currency and not trash
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Video 😅 I watched all of it, Wish you the best bro.
I took a break from playing Growtopia for a long while (I'm an old player, talking 2013 kinda old) and I've come back just a few hours ago to find most of my items worth triple they were when I left.
It’s crazy how I come back for the Easter Week, and I hear that the Egg Hunting Basket went from around 100 to a whopping 300 💀💀💀
great video! i love it!
May I add that the creation of Vending Machines added to the Price manipulation crisis. The way how players Hoard items and sell it for more expensive prices. It also made it bot prone, wherein bots would spam famous worlds just to advertise their vend world. Vends also “kinda” ruins the main essence of the game which is to TRADE with other players. For example, the world TRADED, it used to be a social trading world for players to socialize and trade items but now the world is full of vends with overpriced items. Well this is just my opinion and observation about it and I’m no economic expert.
Yeah I remember the autumn of 2020. When harvest started the rare iotms of 2019 skyrocketed from 10-20 dls+ to 100+ dls. For instance Ruby horns were like 38 dls one day and when I took 2 days off, the price for some unknown reason rose to 125 dls
Even noface from 70 wls to 7 dls?

i have no clue as to who you are, i stumbled upon your video while looking for profit guides on youtube, but i feel like im in love
Relly cool video to watch after several years of not playing this game.
Yeah thinking back, it was really hard to make money after the UbiSoft buyout. Not only was inflation happening, things that normal people could afford like Angel wings were going down. If you wanted to invest, you’d buy Angel wings for 40 wls for example and then a few months later they’d be 25 wls. That happened to me. The only things that were going up exponentially were the rayman punch and Magplant, but only the rich could afford that. So if you were rich you could make money easily but if you weren’t then there was no way to progress.
Awsome content!
Its Mails Gt not malis gt 🤣 but all good, very well made video.
It's crazy how I never thought about it even with buyworlds.
If I had it over I would’ve bought rayman for 1 dl and magplant for 8 dls when they first came out I remember all these expensive items coming out for just cheap.
kudo's to this guy explaining the inflation rate in gt
Tbh they could just rerelease iotm‘s and the price would drop but many sellers would be upset but thats how they could fix inflation
remember when phoenix wings were 5dls? now theyre 20-30bgls easily
lol I remember buying them for like 1.5k chandelier seeds
Hoarding items, Manipulation is the biggest reason of this inflation. Its nice to have people driven economy but the bad side truly shines in growtopia more than the good side. Rayman has become somewhat like nikes now, labeled as a luxurious item for luxury people now.
Innocent 10-11 year old me sold rayman fist when it was 3dls... I still think about it to this day. If this kind of a video had been back then I would have made better decisions. Thank you for this tho
I sold 5 magplants for roughly 12 dls when they were new and I needed wls for another project and quit the game shortly after. Also got my drop game that I locked with a royal lock banned when it was some 300 wls. Doesn't really bother me though because I haven't had any interest in the game for several years. Guess that means I'm still lucky in spite of it all.
Oh god i remember getting diamond horns (an IOTM) a while ago when they were 400-500(?), what is the price margin now?? its been over 2 years.
good video.
and now the inflation is even worse because for example "black market dls" are about 0.30 $ a piece
that click sound lol. i know it to the back of my head
one problem with growtopias grind for wls and gems comes from as said in video for how easily bottable it is. for example in pixel worlds players have to get gear and go out of their way to fully clear dungeons or mineshafts to earn most gems, and if growtopia were to do a similar thing were there was an actual gameplay for earning gems, it wouldnt be as boring and as bottable, bots would still exist but the gameplay would most likely be more effective and faster form of getting currency. this might also be completely false idk i dont play growtopia i just find the commentary content goog
edit: also congrats for h for getting me back interested in GT stuff, even if i dont play it myself, i find the game so interesting and amazing
I personally think that Ubisoft should add some sort of auto farming machines. Because it would probably stop many people from using actual bots. But I think the machine should take fuels. They could add a fuel type from every thing that you can do. Ex. Fishing, silkworms, farming, startships, or whatever else
This would both lessen bots and add more things for people to produce and make profit from
Bro thats gaut
Or people should stop fixating them selves with a fucking number? Like have you ever done anything creative in growtopia?? Chances not..
I think one of the best way to counter inflation is public boards because its very easy to manipulate it,
The item hooves of cernunnos is useful and cheap. And the world has no public boards
And it only rose after the event then become stable, unlike other items with public boards can easily manipulated with multiple account
Or, prevent the creation of new accounts by the same player
Rise the gem cost of wls in store, bring back the old price world like honors or nasdaq, where all growtopians can check what actually is the price of that items they wanted to obtain
Ubisoft need to hire this man
Bruh this video was so well made
As a Minecraft server owner and developer, I have face this issue of inflation as well, I found some really good ways to combat it tho, for example, my server have a season reset every 3 months or so, during a season reset we would usually reset every player's inventory and add some new items into the game and make it more interesting, however I know that this method would hurt Growtopia playerbase even more. Therefore I suggest Growtopia to add an anti bot system, it is really simple to add and frankly for a multi million company like Ubisoft, it will be very easy to implement, this way, there will be lesser bot accounts and inflation can slowly decline.
I also think that Growtopia should also start taking more actions against casinos, Casinos are also one of the main issue in Growtopia that makes world locks, diamond locks and blue gem locks value drop by alot since it is really easy to just earn alot of diamond locks or blue gem locks just from a simple casino game. Growtopia should start getting the active and good playerbase of Growtopia to become moderators, that way there will be lesser casino in Growtopia.
Resetting inventory every 3 months is bad thing bc why would anybody play if they just gets deleted after couple months
my theory for a working WL sink, would be let there be two ways to buy things from the store, with gems and a second currency, like tickets. how would u get those tickets? dialing 12345 on a telephone and trading wls (only wls) for these tickets, and the tickets only being able to used in the shop. not everyone had millions of gems to spend during valentines but boy do they have the world locks
Pixel Worlds kind of fixed the this issue together with some scams by implementing Byte coins to be the main currency in the game's economy since it can be balanced at least to some extent due to byte coins also being able to be removed from the rotation of the players averting inflation.
Very well made video.
I left gt for a good 3 years or so, my once beloved flame scythe from carnival which only cost 1-2 wls, and Orbs of elixir 1-2 wls is now ranging from 9-12 like BROOOOOOO.
I just got back after like 4 years of being inactive (would occasionally log back in jic) only find out that the game has changed so much. For some reason farmables are a little bit more expensive (according to my memory) and everyone kinda became a “pro”. And then players selling items for real money and numerous spammers. It felt unreal thinking about how much the game had changed.
And then theres me farming fertile soil and bountiful while not knowing how to earn wls through trading cus everything they buy/sell could worth thousands of wls.
Ofc I would finally encounter some newbies
Rare well made video about GT nice
My biggest shock is 4 character worlds being 70wls. In 2017 i would find one every 10 mins and sell them for 3wls each
yeah, I was surprised my hbow which I bought for 2 for 1 wl during valentines 3 years ago are now 35+ wls
Nice Video!
I've seen people try to sell six shooters for 8 wls... even tough it can be bought from the store for 4 wls worth of gems...
Nice video. Gained more knowledge
15:02 where can i look up for this tho?
I’m a Vend owner selling pets .i was inactive for about 2 month when I got back to the game I was surprised that most of the pets actually got cheaper. So I basically it lost a lot of its value. And I didn’t want to sell them it their current state. So I’m wondering why did the prices went down while people talking about inflation.
Can't even plsy growtopia anymore, my character is moving sll the timr csn't stop it anyhow and can't text for some reason anymore cause it turns it off immediatly, toolbar not working for me and so many new bugs. I started in 2013
Bfg through the years also ruined it
Imagine being new skipping all things and just doing bfg for 5 mins you can get a world lock already
I quit this game ages ago after I got scammed by someone who did a quick item swap in a trade and when I made a review to reach out the devs just shrugged it off and said they couldn’t do a roll back when they did one out of nowhere once just for a Christmas update last year that didn’t even seem good at all
I'm sad about the growtopia it's so hard to play and not enjoying on playing because of high demands of items and seed.
I remember the electro wings were like 3-4 wls now they like a dl
Really good video
or maybe its bc ubisoft has made the store give u so much more for your money now. when i started playing 6 years ago it was 10 dollars for 100k gems (50 wls). now its 350k gems (175 wls) + megaphone (60ish wls) thats over 4 times as much wls you can for 10 dollars. huge inflation.
