I don't think CCP publishes any hard data on this, they keep information like the exact number of subscribers and the number of PLEX sold secret.
The real money values always thrown around in every article about a big battle in EVE are also rather misleading as most of the ships were not paid for with real money in my estimation. The big alliances have huge incomes from ingame sources from which they finance the big expensive ships like Titans and the ship replacement programs for the smaller ships for their members.
You also can't convert the EVE ingame money (ISK) into real money, or at least not in any CCP-sanctioned way.
- Cthulhu_ 13y agoIIRC they did publish subscribed player statistics a while ago, I think the number then was around 500.000. Usually there's around 50.000 players online during my playing hours. As for the conversion, whether it comes from real money or not is debatable, but given that PLEX is pretty much the measure for real world vs ISK value, a conversion is easily made - just like for example Bitcoin is often converted to USD in articles.
