Nothing and I mean Nothing is 100% certain. Always keep your exposure to a minimum. I do not feel safe when my money is in the bank either but still I keep some there...

Hi Havana,

The point of my phrasing was to counteract the paranoia on the forum. Yes, nothing is certain, there is some very small percent chance (i.e. < 0.001%) something could happen, but for all intents and purposes your money is safe.

It's just frustrating to me the position some people are taking to promote the doom and gloom without thinking things over. Sure, things aren't as good for the skins as they were a week ago, but they are still making money. It's a setback for them, but it's not the end of the world by any stretch. They will take steps to bring in new players just like they were doing before this happened and just like before it happened it will continue to work.

Currently, there are over nine thousand people playing on the skins network (myself included), and I personally think those numbers will go up at least somewhat over the coming weeks as things stabilize. Those numbers put the skins network as a solid player in the industry (we essentially have a "big six" instead of a "big five" now...or perhaps a "big five and a half" depending on how you want to look at it). In addition, this network has two major sportsbooks attached to it which only helps to add to the network's stability/legitimacy.

Long story short, (unless things change drastically for the worse) the network is not going anywhere and player money is safe.
