Valve
Trying to become rich from stocks, NFTs, and crypto? That’s already old school: the new trend is Counter-Strike 2 skins, which have hit the highest value in market capitalization: over $4.3 billion.
This is the largest they have ever been, and the number keeps rising. As Dexerto explained, players open more than 400 million cases every year, which leads to higher demand and new skins produced – those have their price and add to the market cap: $4,309,784,802.80 at the moment of writing.

Naturally, some fans look for the rarest skins and are ready to pay a lot for them. In 2024, for example, an AK-47 skin sold for over $1 million.
With Valve releasing new cosmetics regularly, the value is expected to grow, although, as always with such things, you should not take it as an investment recommendation or anything like that.
We’ve seen bizarre prices for game pixels before: just remember the Banana clicker where people were ready to buy skins for over $1,000.
