If you thought you've spent a lot of money on Steam, then think again. That's because someone has spent close to $1,000,000 on Steam in order to set the highest account level record. The crazy part? Most of it isn't on games.
According to SteamDB, a website dedicated to tracking all things Steam-related, including concurrent players and accounts, user St4ck was bumped from their spot at the top of the highest account level on Steam. For the uninitiated, Steam levels are open to non-limited users and are a way to show off your profile. They're leveled up via purchases, badges and trading cards, and higher levels let you add more friends, among other non-essential benefits.
It's not a waste of money!
Previously, St4ck, a Counter-Strike skin connoisseur, held the top spot, but they've been eclipsed by a user named stasik. That user has jumped from Steam Level 5001 to Steam Level 5960. It has been rumored that St4ck spent over $250,000 to get to level 4,000 back in 2019, and a jump to another 1,000 levels could have pushed him well over the $400,000 range.
As for how much stasik...
