I don't think there will be enough supply for those gill billionaires to have free real money sub for years, thus the price will naturally go way up to adjust to the demand.

Unless I'm overestimating the wealth of many gillionaires.
It is a fine line in terms of time it takes to earn the gil and how quickly you tokens sell. If the tokens cost too much gil that they do not move quickly then in theory rmt could sustain a supply of gil while undercutting the sub price for SE.

Though the same could he said if the price is too low, and bots can still keep up with the gil demand. FFXIV is a boring dream in terms of gathering, setting up scripts to blaze through old content as a form of passive income. The price point would be tricky. Too high rmt could undercut the sub price too low and even modest gillionaries would be able to stockpile sub time. Which is not a bad thing, and I would love to have something to use my gil on.

Just do not know if the system would work in FFXIV due to how generally low value gil holds in this game. Not many money sinks in place.
