Partially. Tradefags buy up keys regularly but don't really offload anything. A few years ago about 150,000 keys came into existence but after a few weeks the price went back to what it used to be after they got circulated. The real issue is that there's no refined metal sink and no alternative high value trade items anymore (remember buds?). Even without alternative items the inflation would still happen but just to a lesser degree.
