Not even close. > If the asteroid’s riches are confirmed, it may be worth more than the global economy at $10 quintillion. But of course that "may be" is carrying a lot of weight. The actual value would be much closer to zero when you think about it for more than a second. The "market price" for these metals would plummet after introducing a massive glut like this.
