Formula And Visual Data
It is common for game companies to sell skins in games. Different games have different approaches, including loot boxes, selling skins, and the battle pass. The ultimate goal is to increase user stickiness and ensure players spend money. Counter-Strike is different because it has a unique trading system where players can trade skins for cash after obtaining them from loot boxes. They can also be sold here after purchase. This has fostered the rise of a player-driven in-game “skin” virtual economy and its dynamics, treating these digital items as tradable assets whose prices fluctuate similarly to stocks.
