Trading system

Couldn't there be a skin/champion trading system between summoners similar to that of Steam? Riot wouldn't be losing any money with this (since people would buy more, imo) and people would end up more satisfied. It bums me out that there isn't a trading system implemented on this game...

They've talked about it and they said something to the effect of they're worried of account security.

In the event that your account gets hacked they can trade away all your valuable skins etc.

that's hilarious. not wanting to add more security like a mobile authenticator and on the other hand not wanting to add trading or a market because there isn't enough security.

To be honest, Riot would probably lose a lot more money due to RWT. If this happens, there will be many websites selling "used" skins for a discount, and of course, instead of buying it new for full price, players would bring their money to other websites.

Also, account cracking would be more prominent as the accounts are much more valuable, now that you can trade/sell the skins/champs.
