Biggest battle in EVE Online's history leads to an estimated $500,000
When a missed payment left a contested area of space unprotected, the biggest battle in EVE Online's ten-year history erupted, involving more than 4,000 players. The fight saw the destruction of over 100 prized Titan vessels, which take months of gameplay to build and are worth around $3,000 each.
A series of animated .gifs capture the carnage as it unfolded, documenting hundreds of destroyed ships and untold losses for players caught up in the action.

I saw the original post about this whilst browsing reddit earlier. It's absurd to think so much money has just been blown to smithereens.
It makes you laugh to see that all this money-blowing happened because one payment was missed.
