Methodology

Prices are live asks in EUR (converted at the ECB daily rate). For each item, the change and both price figures come from the marketplace whose move over the period was the median among the marketplaces that priced the item at both ends — so a marketplace joining or leaving our coverage, or a single mispriced listing on one venue, never reads as a price move. Items are included when at least two of the same marketplaces priced them at both ends, those marketplaces broadly agree about the move, and the price started at €1.00 or more; graded collectibles and souvenir weapons are excluded because one name covers several distinct assets there. 20 marketplaces contributed data. Listing counts sum live offers across the compared marketplaces. SKINX is Skinvesting's chain-linked, equal-weighted index over the 30 most liquid CS2 weapon skins (base 1000).
