# CSX

CSX is a decentralized, community-governed exchange for CS skins, built on blockchain technology. It allows for peer-to-peer trading of items, reinforced by an on-chain verifiable reputation and level integrity system that ensures a secure trading environment without the need for users' Steam Sign-in or optionally Steam web API key.

<summary>Safety &#x26; Security</summary>

Trading via CSX doesn't necessitate users to share their Steam web API key or sign in through Steam. However, sellers have the option to provide their API key if they wish to streamline their trading experience.\
\
The reputation framework is defined by verifiable trades and CSX Levels, earned by burning tokens which are then soulbound to accounts, incentivizing ethical trade with the levels of value influencing one's market reputation.\
\
To safeguard transaction integrity, CSX Oracle verifies that items are transferred from seller to buyer, adding a layer of security and a smooth experience for users.
