Use that same logic with NFL and other sports entertainment, the top streamers are viewed in the same lense as top athletes whether yall wanna believe it or not.

You're dumb as fucc if you don't think that's real.

Kai is thee number 1 streamer on Twitch...number 1...period...over E V E R Y O N E...He has nearly 400k subscribers

Do you comprehend how much money this bwoy is making off subs alone.

One sub is $5 a month

that's $2 million a month just in subs...before we even get to talking about donations, superchats, brand deals, endorsements, his youtube money, and outside business deals.

He's in the Mr Beast bracket.

If I was him I'd be insulted at the 60m deal and turn it down too. He don't need to rock the boat.

he keeps the lights on in the building at twitch. no one else pulls 6 digit viewership regularly, period. you got ishowspeed on youtube, that's it. the bigger play here is ownership of twitch or some sort of avenue there. He bout to be the Tyler Perry of this streamer shyt.

Let’s imagine it’s one million. That’s still a lot of money

He's streaming 24 hours for 30 days, averaging about 150,000 viewers. I saw another streamer say Kai's making around 50k every 8 hours in ads alone. That's 6 million, plus sub money, donation money, sponsorships and endorsements. He'll make close to that 60 million this year alone without having to align with Stake, a crypto casino, the owner of Kick.com.

The only time I checked out a Kai stream was when he marathoned Elden Ring.

Beyond that, I miss Justin TV when it was all gaming and some fukkery, versus all fukkery and no gaming :francis:

I believe it I just don't understand it
This might be the first thing that I don't "get" due to being :flabbynsick:
Watched a couple of clips from these streamers and I don't see anything ground breaking. At least with Ak he is giving news and pushing agendas, with someone like EDP I got it because he was basically doing the shock jock thing. But a lot of these streamers just seem like reasonable normal young dudes.....aka boring.
