CS:GO Skins are semi-fungible Tokens. StatTrak™ skins with counters are complete Non-Fungible Tokens. There's some game that happens to recognize them for in-game use - That's just as true for "NFT Games" What Valve has banned is NFTs not using Valve's Tokens. It's not because they're decentralized, because I'm certain that NFT games using some other company's centralized platform would be just as unwelcome. Is this "moral" of valve? No, I don't think it has any high horse moral standing. I think it's practical because Valve has to work with legal frameworks for virtual goods and they can't guarantee that any other token standards work within those frameworks. All of this is just to say: Digital goods are stupid. Stupid can be fun - I own dozens of skins for various virtual games that i have bought with real money. I also understand that I "own" nothing and could lose them all at any point. I don't care, because I know they're stupid. Anyone trying to sell them as anything but stupid fun (and most companies are, Including Valve, though I think they're the best of the bunch) should be fined for doing so, and draw the ire of consumers.
