Rust Skin Marketplaces started showing up soon after Rust skins were added to the game. Similar to Rust gambling websites, they originated with CSGO skins a few years prior. Before Rust skin marketplaces were created, there was no safe or easy way to exchange your Rust skins for real-world currency or crypto. When Valve made the decision to place 7-Day trade holds on all new skin purchases on Steam Marketplace, even more players needed alternatives, which prompted even more Rust skin websites to be created. Most marketplaces now allow you to convert real-world currency or crypto to Rust skins with ease. Whether buying or selling with other players directly on their website or buying from the website directly, there are many options regardless of your needs.
