Valve launches offensive against gamblers on Steam, possibly affecting CS:GO’s skin market

Valve has made “gambling” a bannable offense in Steam, according to the updated version of the platform’s Terms of Service on May 9 and as noted by skin collector xMercy on Twitter on May 10.

This could spell trouble to the several third-party CS:GO skin gambling websites that use Steam’s API, because in theory, Valve could start banning bettors who engage with these websites through the API.
