Twitch star and co-founder of One True King Mathew “Mizkif,” surprised everyone earlier today by asking one of Adin Ross‘s young fans if he gambles. On Twitch, gambling streams have grown in popularity, with many popular streamers and content creators like xQc, Trainwreck, and Adin Ross joining in.
The fact that several well-known streamers have taken up the cause has sparked a heated debate. Gambling, like other content types on Twitch, such as the infamous hot tube streams, is fraught with controversy when it comes to the platform’s terms of service. Streamers who gamble live on their channels have an impact on not only their adult viewers, but also some young viewers who unwittingly follow their favorite content creator.
Mizkif made this point during his most recent and now-deleted live stream, in which he asked an 11-year-old Adin Ross fan if he gambles. For the streamer, the response was quite upsetting.
Gambling streams have split the Twitch community into two groups, as some fans may be aware. Those who oppose these gambling streams argue that they are illegal and encourage young viewers to gamble, negatively influencing them.
Those who livestream gambling, on the other hand, argue that there is nothing wrong with gambling as long as it is done openly.
Despite these divergent viewpoints, Mizkif, a Twitch streamer, is adamantly opposed, and his recent interaction with an 11-year-old Adin Ross fan backed up that sentiment.
When Mizkif had a conversation with an 11-year-old Adin Ross fan who claimed that he and his friends had tried gambling after seeing their favorite creator on the livestream, his biggest fear about gambling surfaced.
Mathew couldn’t resist asking one question to a fan who claimed to be a huge Adin Ross fan. The streamer was speechless when he received the answer to this question.
Mizkif was taken aback at this point, but was relieved to learn that the kids had already stopped gambling. I’m making some educated guesses.
This incident elicited a lot of reactions from viewers, as one might expect. While the majority of Reddit users are concerned about its negative impact on children, a small number of viewers appear to be unconcerned about the situation.
It should be noted that no one can tell whether the kid was telling the truth or making it up for attention. If true, however, it is extremely concerning.
It goes without saying that most viewers are influenced in one way or another by their streamers. Given how popular gambling has become in recent years, popular streamers losing or winning a large sum of money has garnered a lot of attention on their channels.
