Copied from: [PSA] BitSkins is ramping down its operations

Hi

I'm the CEO of BitSkins, Inc. Over the past few years, we've had the pleasure of serving the community. After years of service, we believe it's time for us to move on to other projects.

The decision is abrupt but it is in light of a recent situation where a user committed payments fraud at Steam, and then tried to use BitSkins to sell those items. This caused Steam to restrict a few of our accounts (now unrestricted), but we were informed that this cannot happen again. Since we have no reliable way of knowing the source of items or exactly how they were acquired, we believe it is best to not allow further possibility of a similar situation to recur.

This can happen to anyone out there, which makes the above incident quite concerning for legitimate users/entities. However, we'd like not to further allow any possibility of this to happen again to our users.

BitSkins has disabled listing and re-listing of new items at this time, as well as fund deposits for BitSkins users. Users can still use the funds/items they have at BitSkins at this time, but we expect to disable trading of items altogether in roughly 14 days from now. We will post a notice on the site before this goes into effect.

As always, BitSkins is not a store of items or funds, so please do not use it as such.

Atif Nazir

CEO, BitSkins, Inc.

Old news but I guess still of value for everyone here who has used Bitskins recently.

Yeah... That's a sad news. Thanks God I am using DMarket. Hope Valve won't get to other third-party marketplaces as well.
