Steam: Bypass 7-day trading ban - is that possible?
Until 7 months ago, you could bypass the 7-day trading block on Steam. In the meantime, this no longer works. We explain why.
Instructions: Bypass 7-day trading ban in stream
- If you switch to a new computer, you cannot trade with other players for 7 days for security reasons. In this way, Steam accounts are protected from hackers.
- Until a few months ago, there were always some bugs that you could use to bypass the trading block. Among other things, the Big Picture Mode in Steam or copying the URL into the browser helped.
- Unfortunately, there is currently no way that you can effectively deal with the trade block. The lock only applies to the new device, not to your account. You can continue trading on known devices.
In the next practical tip, we will show you how to record Steam gameplay.
