when this thin sleeve of $PLANK was entered, there was no eth. now, during some days of profit taking and an unfortunate community member account getting exploited, we're still sitting in 2 way liquidity for the thin sleeve, pulling more PLANK off the market, and dampening the downside movement during sells. one day soon when we convert this thin sleeve entirely to ETH we will be sending it straight into the project. the sum of the 2 tokens today + price appreciation + fees suggests we will be buying well over $5,000 of ETH in plank when this sleeve is finished. less downside, more upside.
