Twitch is one of the biggest streaming platforms in the world, and popular streamers on the site can make incredible amounts of money. This is especially true when talking about Twitch streamers with a specific niche they receive sponsorships for exploring. One popular streamer, Adin Ross, recently leaked how much he is making from Twitch gambling sponsorships.
Twitch gambling streams have become quite popular of late, and like many popular kinds of streams before them, they have been dogged by controversy. Critics have accused popular Twitch streamers like xQc of sensationalizing gambling and making themselves vulnerable to potential legal action. Despite this, gambling streams have continued to take off on Twitch.
Adin Ross became one of the top Twitch streamers of 2021, and he's done his share of broadcasting gambling streams. In a recent stream, he seems to have accidentally leaked how much the popular gambling site Stake is reportedly paying him per week, and the number is very impressive. During a stream earlier in March, Ross opened Discord and accidentally revealed a group chat with Stake, a popular online betting and gambling site that also serves as one of his sponsors. The conversation showed a number of sponsor tasks he was to complete as well as his wallet address.
According to the link, Ross is being paid 335 Ethereum per week by his sponsor--a sum that equals approximately $995,000. In other words, this 21-year-old Twitch streamer is earning close to $4 million dollars a month from just one sponsor. If this level of sponsorship income is common for Twitch gambling streamers, it may explain why so many streamers seem to be getting in on the action. Adding the rest of Ross's income from YouTube, Twitch, and other sponsorships means he's actually making a lot more money on top of the gambling sponsorship.
This isn't the first time Ross has leaked information on how much his sponsors are paying him through Discord chats. Back in June 2021, the streamer opened Discord while live and accidentally revealed a conversation wherein another company offered him about $2 million dollars a month. To most people, that would be considered an incredible amount of money. However, the stress of streaming as a career seemed to be getting to Ross around that time, and he considered quitting Twitch streaming entirely. It appears that he ended up deciding to stick with the job, but the option to back out is still there.
