Industry

  1. 1

    The game

    Counter-Strike began in 1999 as a mod. CS:GO followed in 2012, and Counter-Strike 2 replaced it in September 2023. Free to play, one of the most played games on Steam, with a worldwide pro scene.

  2. 2

    What an item is

    Since the Arms Deal update in August 2013, weapons can carry a finish, or skin. Skins, knives, gloves and stickers come from cases, drops and events. They sit in a player's Steam inventory and can be traded to another account.

  3. 3

    Where it trades

    Players sell on the Steam Community Market for Steam Wallet funds, which cannot be withdrawn, or on cash marketplaces for real money.

  4. 4

    Where BLKK fits

    Rare items and large inventories change hands directly, between collectors, traders and businesses. BLKK buys in volume, and invests in, buys and runs businesses in this market. Get in touch.

What companies ask us
Where does the supply come from?

New skins come from opening cases, weekly drops and Major souvenir packages. When a case stops dropping, no new copies of its skins are made, so they get rarer over time.

What drives the price?

First, how rare the skin is and whether its case still drops. Then the item itself: how worn it is (its float), its pattern and any rare stickers on it. Big tournaments and popular pro players push prices up too.

How are items exchanged?

Only through Steam. Items move from one Steam account to another with a trade offer, which both sides confirm in the Steam mobile app. Since July 2025 every trade can be reversed for seven days, so an item is not really yours until that week is over.

Can skins be turned into cash?

Not on Steam itself. Money from the Steam Community Market stays in your Steam Wallet and can only be spent on Steam. To get real money, people sell on outside marketplaces or directly to traders.
