The whole skin economy around CS has gotten way out of hand. It’s less about the game and more about speculation and gambling at this point.

The quickest way to end it would be to ban gifting skins. You'd be allowed to buy and sell skins in the Valve marketplace where market caps could be in place but no more private sales. Of course you could privately buy an account that has possession of the skins you want but that would add substantial obstacles to the private market.
