MW 20 deflated mostly because of box events, not hackers. Though a combination of the two, MW 20 was not solely because of hackers.
Ilbis deflated a bit when Wolf Spiders came out, but they certainly didn't drop to 5 mil. As people make new characters more demand for an items is created and a stable price is developed. When you have every wolf spider channel full of haxxors every day and haxxor stores showing up in fm with tons and tons of ilbi then the market is going to become saturated and that is when you will see massive deflation of ilbis. I even bought an ilbi for 3 mil the other day.
I have a suspicion that Nexon released some of the Horn Tail drops in the boxes to combat the haxxors, making their HT runs less profitable. I forget what the MW20 price had dropped to before the Gold Box event started, but it was considerably cheaper than pre hacker times. The Gold Box event did complete the trashing of the MW20 price though.
