Introduce end of round trading!!! (Destiny)

I work on an AAA game that has a player trading and currency system, and deals with this kind of problem. They showed us some numbers in a team-meeting the other week for what amount of in-game currency was earned legitimately vs. what was farmed and sold through third-parties. It wasn't pretty, and there's no easy solution available that doesn't impact legitimate players.

Oh I totally understand that (gold farming being a high paying job in WoW for example), but this isn't equivalent in a major way: in-game currency being purchased is guaranteed. Paying a CHANCE at a good weapon though, I just don't see it. Especially because there is so little guarantee that you'll get ANYTHING of value.
