The article discusses the new highest-level Steam user, who has reportedly spent over half a million dollars to achieve this status. This user possesses a unique collection of items, including a Discord kitten and a $9,000 Counter-Strike gun that features a racial slur. The article also touches on the user’s potential rivalry with the individual currently in third place for the highest Steam level. It highlights the extravagant spending habits within the gaming community and raises questions about the implications of such investments in virtual goods.
9000 dollars for a gun in CS!? I spent that much for my entire steam library. Sounds utterly disgusting to me.
Isn’t that not even a crazy amount for CS standards? Don’t get me wrong, it’s insane to me how people spend money on this. But i thought the most expensive items are in the 10s or 20 thousands.
Nah. The most expensive item in csgo is a karambit blue gem. One person offered 1.5 mil dollars for it and the seller declined because it wasn’t enough. It is speculated to be worth over 2 mil dollars.
Why?
Rarity. Even though its just pixels, it’s still rare.
Sounds like nft without blockchain.
My most expensive item in inventory was about 0.06 euros last time I checked.
Makes me really motivated to spend 15 minutes trying to figure out how to sell that stuff.
