Proxy
After the May 1 update, Steam began banning most proxies very quickly.
Good IPv4 proxies are now extremely hard to find. As we’ve discovered, Steam bans the entire subnet, and until the first banned proxy is restored, others on the same subnet will remain banned as well. Because of this, static IPv4 proxies are no longer suitable.
For now, we’ve found one working solution — residential proxies based on traffic with rotation on every request (although this is quite an expensive solution).
First service: Proxy-Sale
Pros: Reliable and trusted provider with the option to pay in cryptocurrency.
Go to the “residential” section and choose the amount of GB per month — the more you buy, the cheaper it is.
Second service: Proxy.Market
Pros: Reliable and trusted provider with card payment options (Mir, Visa, Mastercard).
Go to the “residential” section and choose “by traffic”, then go to the purchase section and select the desired GB per month.
Proxy creation on Proxy.Market:
You can format your proxies in our Telegram bot by uploading a .txt file with a list of proxies, and then upload them to our website.
Now let’s move on to delay calculation between requests:
Line 1:
86,400 – number of seconds in a day
30 – number of days to stretch traffic over
Line 2:
7 – GB in your proxy package
(1024 * 1000) – GB to KB conversion ❌ (fixed value)
Line 3:
200 – number of skins in your database
5 – request weight for the first Steam page ❌ (fixed)
2.5 – request weight for the second and following pages ❌ (fixed)
2 – number of pages excluding the first
