70,928,405 total bans - with rare, valuable old accounts being hit the hardest
Steam account "digits" show account age - lower digits = older, rarer, MORE VALUABLE accounts.
STEAM_0:0:12 → 2 digits (created 2003-2004, EXTREMELY RARE)
STEAM_0:1:123456 → 6 digits (created ~2010, still rare)
STEAM_0:0:123456789 → 9 digits (created recently, common)
Even the RAREST accounts get banned - proving Steam doesn't care about account value or age when stealing your property.
This table shows 70,928,405 total bans organized by SteamID digit length. Lower digit accounts are older and exponentially rarer.

229 accounts with 2-digit IDs banned. These accounts were created in 2003-2004 - the FIRST YEAR of Steam. Many children who registered as kids now have their childhood accounts stolen by Valve.

💔 THE TRUTH: NO ACCOUNT IS SAFE 💔
Whether you have a legendary 1-digit account worth $50,000+ or a brand new 9-digit account created yesterday - Steam will ban you WITHOUT EXPLANATION and STEAL YOUR PROPERTY if they want to.
