Nope, nowhere close, I think smeaton has been the highest earner so far. For cargo Elite rank, the Meta alloy missions far exceeded Void opal earnings. There has always been something, up until a few months ago we had almost 6 months of potentially earning 200+ million every 12 minutes hauling MA's (You did need a T9 or Cutter though) For exploration Elite rank there is the smeaton pax missions etc etc.. Keep going back and similar gold rushes existed... First ones where the Seeking goods & Rare goods. Rare goods was locked down within hours, seeking goods lasted a week or so.
At least with Void Opals you are kinda working for your cash, and earnings will be halved once the devs patch the abrasion bug.
You could stack these up until recently, flight time to drop off is 6 mins
