Buying Etherium in the Market is (now?) dependent on the number of Rift Habitats you have: the larger the number of Habitats, the larger the amount of Etherium you get for your money. Example: the largest pack will get you 116,400 Etherium when you have 49 Rift Habitats and 118,400 Etherium when you have 50. (At 160,000 Etherium for Habitat #51 this still isn't a lot, but at least it is a lot more than it used to be.)

I'm not sure when they've put this change in. I haven't checked the Market prices for Etherium in quite a while. But as nothing much has changed, as far as the Rift mechanics go, until just these last couple of days, I presume it is rather recent change.
