imagine a marketplace which facilitates trade of a product, like beanie babies let’s say 🐥🐵🐨 or possibly #es_f

market advertises diff prices to see where ppl willing to buy / sell at

they try 3255.5 + ppl are into it, beanie babies exchanging hands here for a long time... https://twitter.com/wggm/status/1286487272305524736
everyone agrees 3255.5 is a great price for a beanie baby exchange

then news hits

beanie babies shortage globally 🙀

sellers can’t keep them in stock, when buyers find someone w a beanie babies cache, they offer

3255.75 now

demand is high and it goes to 3286!!
too high tho

eventually things get back to normal around here + buyers / sellers have themselves a good price to trade the babies at, maybe even

3255.5 again!!

bc they knew people wanted to buy there before

beanie babies are still cool, so buyers step back in
