Adin Ross reveals why Kai Cenat and other high-profile streamers are switching to Kick
“They’re all going, bro. Why would they not?”
Internet personality Adin Ross is making bold claims regarding the new streaming platform Kick and awave of hugely popular creators making the switch.
The 22-year-old has stated that Kai Cenat, Darren “IShowSpeed” Watkins Jr., Bruce “BruceDropEmOff” Condones, and YourRAGE are all making the move to the newTwitchcompetitor. “They’re all going, bro. Why would they not go? They’re going to give them equity and millions of dollars,” he explained.
Adin Ross has made some extremely bold claims regarding Kick
“Think about it – the platform cannot fail if everyone goes,” he said. There’s no doubt these creators would cause a shift towards kick for some of their community given their networks tend to overlap.
Interestingly enough, Adin himself saidrecently that he isn’t being offered enough money atthe moment. “I need more money. You guys are not offering me enough money to go full-time,” he said in response to the platform’s attempt to bring him on board. He went so far as to say he’s “not 100% going to Kick.”
So while he himself is unsure about his future with the new Twitch competitor, he does seem quite sure that his colleagues are more than willing to accept their offers of equity and bags full of money.
Adin Ross isn’t sure he’ll join Kick without more money though
In what could definitely be seen as a bit of a marketing ploy, he claimed he wasthreatened by Twitch in an attempt to “silence” himbefore revealing that he’d be experimenting with the prospect of switching to Kick. Since then he’s been pushing the platform to his audience in what some fans are claiming is too much.
The language used and actions taken led to popular Twitch streamer Felix “xQc” Lengyel claiming the creator isgoing down a “really unhealthy rabbit hole.”
As has been mentioned many times since the platform came into the spotlight, the company claims that it will be offering thebest revenue splits, payout options, and morealthough the full systems are not in place yet.
At this point, all we can do is wait and see if these claims turn out to be true and if these platform battles will turn out any differentthan the moves made by Mixer and YouTubein 2019.
