Risk Disclosure for CS2 Skin Options
Understand the key risks of CS2 skin options trading, including volatility, premium loss, custody, settlement, liquidity, beta access, and blockchain-related risks.
Trading and premium risk
Options can expire worthless. Buyers can lose the premium paid plus fees and network costs.
Covered call writers can give up upside or face delivery obligations if the referenced skin rises and the option is exercised.
Unfavorable outcome examples
A buyer can pay a premium for a call, see the skin remain below the strike, and let the option expire with no exercise value.
A covered writer can receive premium, then have the skin rise sharply and be required to deliver or settle under the accepted option terms, limiting upside versus simply holding the skin.
Skin, liquidity, and RFQ risk
CS2 skins are volatile and heterogeneous. Reference prices, maker availability, and quote TTLs can change quickly.
CSfi does not guarantee liquidity, maker coverage, or quote availability for every eligible market.
