This is going to have an intimidate impact on materia prices as demand for them goes up but it will eventually settle back down once the event is over and enough gil is blown up in failed melds.
But that gil doesn't go anywhere but into the hands of another player, so it stays in the system. You'd need something that actually takes the excess gil out of the system, which could be when the ARR launches, till then the ecomony will be inflated without a way to ease the gil coming into the system.
