Excellent. As it should be, all that cracking tritium......
Setting own market prices.. nice!!
Great news! The price is at the low end of what I planned for so no complaints from me. I really like the player-controlled market on the FC. Looks like the beginning of a more player-driven economy for the game.
One question: does outfitting the FC increase its price like with our normal ships?

-ED players: 100-300millions per hour, money is easy.
-ED players later: 5 bil? Too much, i need few years to do it
Made me smile.
A ps4 beta??? Wow colour me impressed. I wonder if you can get them at the discounted price at Jameson Memorial? That would put one down to 4.25 billion At a quick calculation.
I'm assuming if Dav is presenting the show then having markets on board will have BGS impacts. I know that the reveal is mostly crackly boom giant spaceship but can a fleet carriers effects on the BGS, Powerplay and how it works if you are hostile / wanted be detailed too please?
You harvest it from some glow in the dark watches.
Thanks for the update. That’s 1 billion less than I expected 
I have a theory about the fuel, can you confirm?
I think that normal ships use deuterium-deuterium fusion because deuterium occurs naturally in sufficient amounts and is relatively easy to refine.
However, because of the square-cube law, capital ships use much more energy, requiring deuterium-tritium fusion, which produces more energy per ton. This wouldn't be financially viable for smaller ships since tritium is harder to obtain and decays with a HL of 12.32 years, but larger military powers can afford it.
Also, as mentioned previously, the new fuel can be obtained by mining, which fits this theory since it can be 'bred' from lithium, which can be extracted from lithium hydroxide that you can mine from icy rings.

Thanks for the information. I look forward to testing them in the beta.
