    UNDERSTANDING SKIN GAMBLING A guide to what skin gambling is, how it works, the demand for skin gambling, recent controversy, the legal issues, and the key takeaways for the regulated gambling industry. CHRIS GROVE 2016 Partner, Narus Advisors Thanks to increasing coverage from the mainstream media and a recent rash of controversies, skin betting - online wagering conducted in digital items instead of money - has become a topic of interest to many in the gambling industry . This white paper provides a concise but comprehensive education on the fundamentals of skin betting, the size and nature of the market for skin betting, the legal landscape, and some key takeaways for commercial gambling stakeholders . TABLE OF CONTENTS OVERVIEW 1 What are skins? . .2 How do players acquire skins? . 2. How do people bet skins? . .2 How large is the market for skin betting? . .3 SKIN BETTING: INDUSTRY TIMELINE 4 Introduction and growth . 4. Recent controversy . .4 SKIN GAMBLING AND THE LAW 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS FOR THE COMMERCIAL GAMBLING INDUSTRY 6 Strong demand for gambling exists among esports fans . .6 That demand may not be obvious through the prism of traditional gambling . 6. Focus on speed, simplicity, social (and skins) . .6 APPENDIX A 7 APPENDIX B 7 AN IMPORTANT NOTE As we prepare to publish this paper (July 2016), the skin gambling industry is facing an existential threat from game developer Valve. The game developer is seeking to shut down skin betting sites, a move that appears to be meeting at least some resistance from the sites. We believe that even if Valve is successful in largely eradicating skin gambling, the product still deserves careful attention as a possible template for a new class of gambling products that will prove popular with esports fans and the new generation of gamblers they represent.

Moshirnia, Precious and Worthless: A Comparative Perspective on Loot Boxes and Gambling, 20 MINN. J.L. SCI. & TECH. 77 (2018). Available at: https://scholarship.law.umn.edu/mjlst/vol20/iss1/5 The Minnesota Journal of Law, Science & Technology is published by the University of Minnesota Libraries Publishing. Precious and Worthless: A Comparative Perspective on Loot Boxes and Gambling Andrew V. Moshirnia* Abstract Odds-based microtransactions in video games, or “loot boxes,” offer users a chance to get special game items for actual money (i.e., legal tender), as opposed to acquiring this “loot” through in-game achievements. This feature provides revenue for game developers and allows users to acquire items that would otherwise require hours of gameplay. But loot boxes threaten to degrade game design and foist addictive mechanics on vulnerable users. Loot-box purchasers, much like pathological gamblers placing a wager, report an initial rush when opening a loot box and then a wave of regret and shame. This problem is especially acute in underage consumers who spend thousands of dollars to gain a desired item. Governments are aware of this disturbing trend and are attempting to regulate or outright ban the practice.

  • Skin Gambling: Teenage Britain's Secret Habit
    Skin gambling: teenage Britain’s secret habit A Parent Zone report 28 June 2018 Introduction This research began because one young person told us he thought skin gambling was a problem. It turned out he was not alone. Two in five young people who know about it agree. We share their concern. Our investigation has uncovered a complicated ecosystem of games, sites and services that knowingly and unknowingly facilitate gambling with virtual currencies. With the help of young gamers, we have learnt that in-game purchases and rewards can easily be used to gamble, and that young people have enterprising ways to fund gambling activity. It is a world that people who aren’t in it know little about, but gamers – including young gamers – navigate with ease. At Parent Zone, we encourage families to enjoy technology. We promote the concept of digital resilience because resilient young people are more likely to benefit from time online and less likely to experience harm. However, to help young people flourish online, we have to take steps to ensure that the digital world isn’t evolving into a space that takes advantage of them. We can’t allow new harms to emerge beyond the oversight of those who have young people’s best interests at heart. It’s important that they can take risks but that should not include being exploited by services that allow activity we have already decided is illegal for under-18s. Skin gambling is one such activity. We are calling for a special inquiry to identify ways in which this problem can be tackled.

  • Are Loot Boxes an Illegal Gambling Mechanic?
    Are Loot Boxes An Illegal Gambling Mechanic? By James Gatto and Mark Patrick A member of the United Kingdom’s Parliament has opened an inquiry into the legality of loot boxes. Loot boxes are virtual items that may be redeemed to receive a randomized selection of additional virtual items. Various countries around the world have recently moved to regulate the provision of loot boxes in video games, often in response to inquiries from consumers or legislators, such as the aforementioned inquiry in the UK. This leads to the ultimate question: are loot boxes legal? Some believe that they are a form of gambling. Others see them as an effective, but legal, game monetization technique. The answer, as it is with many legal issues, is “it depends.” The primary legal issue is whether the loot box mechanic constitutes gambling. Other issues, which are addressed below, include whether the age rating of games with loot box mechanics should be impacted based on the inclusion of the game mechanic, and whether consumer protection laws require disclosure of the odds of obtaining certain virtual items through loot boxes. The short answer on the primary issue is that most, “standard” loot box mechanics should not be deemed gambling, in most countries. However, a number of factors discussed below could alter the result. It is critical to understand that this issue is quite fact-specific and slight changes in the facts can lead to a different result. Furthermore, the relevant laws vary by jurisdiction. Various jurisdictions are looking into the need for further regulation in this area, so it is important to stay abreast of continuing developments.

  • Skin Gambling
    SKIN GAMBLING January 30, 2018 HB 2881 | Public Hearing House Committee on Public Safety Washington State GAMBLING COMMISSION WHAT ARE SKINS? Skins are virtual items that can be used in games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO). They change the appearance of a player’s weapon or equipment. The skins simply change the appearance of weapons, having no effect on the functionality or power of the weapons. CS:GO’s AWP (Arctic Warfare Police) sniper rifle is shown in its original state and with various skins. HOW DO PLAYERS GET SKINS? Players can get skins in a variety of ways. In CS:GO, players can acquire skins by: • Receiving them while playing the game • Receiving them as a promotional giveaway • Trading skins with other players • Purchasing skins on third-party marketplace sites HOW DO PLAYERS BET SKINS? To understand how skins work, it’s important to think of skins as simple units containing value – like a poker chips. Like poker chips, CS:GO skins can be traded between players and the house. This functionality enables skins to serve as a currency that can be used for wagering in any type of gambling activity you can imagine. Here’s how it works: 1. Players “deposit” skins at a skin betting site (sportsbooks, roulette, etc.). 2. They gamble using their deposited skins. 3. If they win, they’re paid in additional skins, which they “cash out” by requesting that the skin betting site transfer skins back to the player. 4. Once players have skins in their Steam account, they can: • Leave the skins in their inventory; OR • Use the skins to change the appearance of their weapons; OR • Trade skins with other players; OR • Sell skins on the Steam marketplace for Steam credit (not cash) that can be used to buy other skins and games via Steam; OR • Exchange skins for cash on third-party sites outside of Steam.

  • Response to DCMS Call for Evidence on Loot Boxes, Ending 22/11/20
    Response to DCMS call for evidence on loot boxes, ending 22/11/20 Parent Zone provides insights and projects to help families make the most of the digital future for children. We have been working on the links between gaming and gambling for several years. In the past couple of years, we have conducted two independent research projects, qualitative and quantitative (with IPSOS Mori), into the links between gambling and online games. The first focused on skin gambling, Skin Gambling: Teenage Britain’s Secret Habit, 20181. The second, ​ ​ The Rip-Off Games2, looked at loot boxes. ​ In addition, we recently partnered with GambleAware to develop Gaming or Gambling, two ​ ​ short films plus accompanying materials to help families learn about the gambling-like risks that eight-to-eleven-year-olds may face when playing online games - and give simple, practical advice to help ensure gaming remains fun and safer. Our conclusion is that on the basis of the following factors: ● the gambling-like behaviours that loot boxes inculcate; ● the techniques borrowed from the gambling industry to keep children opening loot boxes; ● the links to gambling on skin gambling websites; ● and a growing body of evidence of links between loot box opening and problem gambling, the precautionary principle dictates that the Government should classify loot boxes as gambling, and regulate them accordingly. Gambling-like behaviours The business model of online gaming has changed. When video games were first invented. they were bought on disk, complete. Now they are downloaded from the internet, opening the way for continual upgrades and updates, and providing a gateway to perpetual spending opportunities.
