i'll try to explain this simply:

Before, teams were hoarding up money as much as possible. if they didn't need to buy, they wouldn't buy players and save money. This has created an unhealthy enviroment where some teams had over 25M on there bank accounts. They would then be able to buy 5 superbe players (along with what they had) put them in there team and just steamroll the competition. To counter that, the BB's implemented a tax that will tax you for 10% on anything that is above the 25M in your bank account.

Since this was announced, teams didn't randomly wanted to just lose money, so they invested whatever cash they had above the 25M into the premium players. That caused the premium players prices to go up. as a result, people went after the second best options, those prices went up aswell. This effect was then noticable for the entire market, which has resulted in prices going up. The prices will probably settle down in the futur once everyone has stored away whatever cash over 25M that they had. So in the longrun, prices should go down a bitt more, but it won't reach the same lvl as before.

In the past, you'd train players hard and not get a lot of cash for it. Now, if you train them well, you get a nice reward for them that can be invested in stadium, staff or buying other players (upgrading your team).

Do BB's support hyperinflation? Not at all. They want to achieve the best competitive scenario possible. But to achieve that, some rules have to be implemented and each time there is a change to the economical situation, it will have an effect on the prices of the Transfer Market.

As you should have seen, the prices for winning your division have gone up. This was done in an attempt to help the teams who were going up to get some more funds, to buy those players they couldn't afford before & to increase there options of being competitive on that next lvl.

Hope this solves your mystery of inflation :P

what i'm going to do is making an adequat guess:

You have a valid point that the people who hoarded to much are dumping there surplus of cash. That cash goes into the less fortunate teams who upgrade arena's, buy new prospects or get a new staffmember. Considering that prices for staffmembers have also sky rocketed, the extra cash that is in circulation also goes there.

As for your longterm effect, it will take a while to die down. the super amount of cash for a trained player from for instance a IV or III team, will probably be invested in 2 or 3 others players to upgrade that squad. Say, he's got 3M for his super talent, and invested it in 3x 1M player, then the 3M from the original team hoarding guy goes down to 1 different teams. Those teams could then upgrade there roster aswell (or staff, arena, scouting, ...) meaning that in the longhaul, the cash will be redistributed over the other teams. Ofcourse, the team who got 3M could decide to hoard it aswell for a little while.

There are different scenario's, but all in all the prices will go down once all that surplus hoarded cash has been distribuated over a larger amount of teams by reinvesting and upgrading those rosters.

As i mentioned, it won't go to the original price you had a couple of seasons ago. but it will still likely go down from what it is now (this estimated guess is based upon the logical principles of economics. that doesn't mean you'll see marked improvements, it's something that happens slowely ;)
