Thank you for using my video and showing the people how it really came to the Bitcoin "Scam". Since it was a bug and the people unknowingly scammed themself.
this was the funniest shit ive heard in steam bro xD also kinda shows how much power just 1 investor can have and the impact it can make in the market. After all, if a tree falls in the forest, it does make noise!
I was wondering that wish steam had a feature where you could cash out to real money directly from steam market (and if that was possible will it be profitable for steam or not) But after seeing this video it seems if cashing out was possible it would be a disaster
Why would they? It would be considered gambling and if the money stays circulated in Steam funds they will make even more money this way. Money on Steam isn’t considered “money” it’s considered “funds” and is a microtransaction which is a legal loophole to have case gambling.
@douglas adams if yyou mass report this video. And youtube manually sees it. There is a chance for this to be terminated. Low chance but still possible
General is a military rank and Snus is a tobacco pillow that you put in the back of your teeth. It’s a very common thing here in Sweden many Swedish csgo pros life Krimz uses it.
@@MarkusGlesnes Kinda sweden is the only country that does not regulate snus. In sweden we can have every thing from the most kid friendly to things like Siberian snus.
Baka Patrick here. Glad to be helpful in some way. I really went all-out on this review and the discussion with Porca, so I'm happy it didn't go unnoticed. Also, I suspected that Porca was a stolen account, but that's kinda far-fetched. There's no evidence to back that up. He's as mysterious as ever.
@@leonardobarros7117 Yeah, it was just a random thought because I couldn't imagine how this could be defended and some other stuff like talking to phishing scammers. I never believed that was true, mainly because of a lack of evidence and because that thought was silly to begin with.
General Snus is referring to a brand of snus, which are tobacco pouches (nicotine pouches but tobacco) which is very common in Sweden (not just in sweden but the guy was swedish). It's also the best snus.
Last one sounds like it could be money laundering. Transfer large amounts of cash between 2 accounts you own and you only lose 5% to valve while 10% of your money is cleaned when you get a check from valve.
Tbh you just made an item for your game, i don't understand why would anyone just randomly buy it.. And then why was steam pissed? You did nothing wrong, the ppl were just stupid...
To summarize the first half of the video. 4 guys, were allegedly participating in the Bitcoin, which they pumped the price and scam a lot of people. Valve took the issue to their own hands and banned them. The reality was that they weren't the ones pumping the price, someone else was. And the people who bought the item, scammed themselves. Basically 4 dudes got banned for the wrong reasons, BUT some of them were able to get their accounts back as Valve misunderstood the situation.Valve needs to get better at their jobs.
@@sinu0us not a scam just plain stupid decisions buying a random worthless item off the market. It could be mistaken as a scam due to the only sellers being friends of the dev or the dev himself and they all of sudden got loads of money due to it being pumped.
Wait, the buyers, buying an item for a game they’ve never heard of, with a picture of a bitcoin, clearly not an actual bitcoin, meant they’ve been scammed? I mean who was the scammer? They bought not knowing anything about the game, or the item… seems a bit deserved from the buyers tbh. Everyone trying to jump on everything early, not realizing what they buy is not a scam tbh
honestly csgo entire market is basically early age of NFTs, literal ingame skins going for thousands and even millions for the rarest. Actual NFTs vibe. Funny thing is you can use their thousands worth of skins if they get killed and basically act as the "I screenshot your nft" I wonder why nobody notice that its also an NFT type
"What if the problem was the players themselves?" NO HEYZEUS. You NEVER point the finger at the average regular user in 2021. It's ALWAYS a problem with the big corporation or the platform owner. NEVER the average user.
It’s funny that best case scenario for the devs of city of brave and lord of the sea is that they go to prison, worst case China bans steam and your inventory is back to being worth nothing

General Snus is tobacco. It's only legal in a few countries in Europe, don't remember exactly which, but i know it's legal (and widely bought) in Norway and Sweden. Due to the guy being Swedish, it adds up. If you google it, i assume you get a picture of this round, probably brown, box. They can be bought loose, and in portions. When it's loose, its just powder, and when it's portions, it's just small bags filled with the powder (the tobacco).
General snus is a type of nicotine ‘’snus’’ which is very popular in the northern countries like sweden and Norway. Search it up, ‘’snus nicotine’’ or just ‘’snus’’

Nobody gonna point out that he only blurred out the part of news article where it was in big text. Right above the big text the title of the article is there in full.
13:55 Just a side note: There is still an unblurred, smaller version of the headline just above your blurred words. Guess it's too late now, but I still wanted to mention it...
I do not really understand why Valve did ban them and the item. As far as I understand the only "illegal" thing they did was when the dev printed bitcoins for his friends, and what's the difference? He's the dev, he can do whatever he wants. So hamsters did bought those, and what? Someone's loss is the other person's profit. That's the market, you buy - you sell. And Valve got 13% out of every transaction, so what's the problem?
i just got into csgo and care more about skins than the game so far and learning about steam market and all ur videos is a huge thrill of a rabbit hole to go down and coming from mmo's that people do lots of sketchy shit like this i can only imagine these chinese devs are using these game items to sell in bulk for hacked accounts and whipe their balance probably with no refund possible just my own thoughts idk if theres an update to this tho lol
8:12 so we're just going to pretend like distributing massive numbers of a worthless item and then suddenly changing it into a misleading representation of Bitcoin isn't by itself the modus operandi of a scammer?
take this with not just a grain, but a whole jar, of salt (as i think i was asleep during the whole "Steve" fiasco). i do feel like Steve was the one behind the whole thing all along. u mentioned that the game's API key allows people to not just add, but also delete, items from its Steam market page. so if others saw how he added the "Heyzeus abs" item and used his guide to make gore items, why didn't he just use the API key he already had to delete them again? (i assume the API key would allow him to delete _all_ items from the game, not just the ones he added himself?) unless the actual people behind it somehow locked Steve's account out of doing anything at all before they used the API key to do the shit that they did? which i guess is possible, but i feel like Steve would've said more than just "i am powerless to stop this" if something like that was actually happening. either way Steve was the one who shared how to use the API key to add items to the game, so i don't think i can feel too bad for him even if he wasn't behind it all. unless ofcourse he comes up with a similar story to the RUN! developers and proves us all wrong!
yeah, i was kinda thinking the same thing. Although if everyone had access to the dev api, how come there werent other people going in and trying to stop this? i feel like theres got to be a part of the story we're missing or something

But after seeing this video it seems if cashing out was possible it would be a disaster
if cashing out was possible csgo cases would have been condsidered gambling and csgo would probobly get banned from nearly every country
Iirc that's something Valve can't do cause they'd be seen as a banking institution and that opens a whole other can of legal issues
they dont want to give money away
Why would they? It would be considered gambling and if the money stays circulated in Steam funds they will make even more money this way. Money on Steam isn’t considered “money” it’s considered “funds” and is a microtransaction which is a legal loophole to have case gambling.
