Part 1
From: someone

the total money supply in non-Linden accounts for Feb. 2006 was approx L$523.9 million

That number is L$120 million below estimates could it be possible to have that number include linden accounts as well? I'm in a bit of a panic, usualy L$120 million just doesn't evaporate. If L$523.9 is accurate, then SL hasn't grown, it has shrunk.

Whats going on?
In September it was L$344 million
In October it was L$390 million
8.5 Million was associated with user stypends, another 3 million for dwell et al.

If you extend 8.5 weekly till the end of febuary, you get around 550 million. That doesn't take into account dwell (traffic). Short of something amazing, I cannot beleive L$523.9 Million. Are you sure it's not L$623.9 Million; it fits better.

Course the other possability is, that LL has been stiffing people thier stypend.

Does 523.9 include money that is currently up for sale on LindeX?

Does 523.9 include money in Teen Grid accounts?

the money supply number for feb. 'o6 in non-linden accounts was indeed L$532.9m. it does not include any L$ up for sale on the exchange. and no, no one was shorted of their stipends.
