Worked example · hypothetical inputs
A 10% deposit spread can hide a 20% cash loss
A skin listed at 100 community units is worth 80 in cash and receives 90 site credits. A withdrawal costing 45 credits returns an item worth 32 in cash.
Deposit spread: 1 − 90 ÷ 100 = 10%. At the same withdrawal rate, 90 credits return 64 cash units: 80% retained, or 20 lost per 100 starting cash units. This assumes all credit can be redeemed at the quoted rate, with no extra fees.

What we checked
We compare published fees, bot and peer-to-peer settlement models, identity checks and cashout eligibility. We have not collected matching live quotes or measured settlement times.
A market is not a casino, but pricing spreads, fraud checks, chargebacks, KYC, and thin item liquidity still create material risk.

Questions
What fee matters most?
The effective spread between what an item costs to acquire and what it returns on sale or withdrawal.
Is peer-to-peer always faster?
No. It can reduce bot inventory constraints but introduces seller availability and settlement risk.
