I have never actually participated in this… who sets the gold price of the token?
Say I buy a wow token, do I list it at whatever gold price I want or does blizzard set the list price?
Do I immediately get the gold or is it like listing any other type of item on AH and if it doesn’t sell I get it back?

It’s automated. It ticks every hour (I think?). If more tokens were bought in that hour with dollars, gold price goes down. If more tokens were bought in that hour with gold, gold price goes up.
You don’t set a price, the price is fixed across the region at the current hourly rate. Everyone buys and sells at the current regional gold rate.
I have known people who spend dollars to buy a token and have to wait to get their gold. Server lag? Or maybe you have to wait for an actual purchaser and there is no “buffer” of tokens? Unclear.

If Blizzard could just create more tokens, they could also set the price at whatever level they wanted. They can do whatever they want. We have no accounting to see whether tokens still work as we were originally told they were going to.
The man behind the curtain is Ion.

I think alot of us understand how supply/demand works but we never thought it would increase this much, this fast. It was pretty steady around 270k for awhile and now its jumped 30-50k. Its just crazy to see.

BTW you can track the price and fluxuations.
It dropped 2200 gold just 10 minutes ago. There was a 20k fluctuation over the course of 3 hours just this afternoon.
Just look at the graph charts. This is NOT somebody setting a price, it absolutely behaves like an automatic system.
interesting how china is still there. I thought their servers were close. Also holy hell 500k for both china and taiwan

That’s exactly how I would want it to appear if I was doing the display design.
Its about every 20m
The information you are asking for is physically impossible to be given out in a way you would accept.

inflation.
Taiwan’s always been high. Their lowest ever recorded price was 111,764, way back in 2016.
U.S. lowest was 17k in 2015.
I remember when tokens released and people were like “20k? What a ripoff! That’s so much gold!” 
I believe that was in WoD when the token only meant game time. Nowadays we can just about get anything blizzard w/ the token that’s why it’s fetching a high price
It was WoD, but more importantly it’s when the tokens were introduced (March 2015, in patch 6.1.2). Long-term gold price trend has been going up ever since their debut.
Which means nothing, aside from the fact that you have faith that the system was implemented during wod, described accurately to us at the time, and no changes have happened since.

Inflation I guess considering that players have more and more gold now than they used to have

Ok?
I am just saying its physically impossible for the level of transparency you would need to ensure its “working as stated”.
There is zero information that Blizzard could give us.
I think it’s more that we don’t stay awake at night, obsessed with what other players are doing with their gold/dollars/time, and don’t think of wow tokens as some bogeyman hiding under the bed that ruins our lives.
