xQc claims Hasan and Pokimane are \u201cscared\u201d that Kick will succeed xQc\/TwitchStreaming star Felix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lengyel has suggested that fellow streamers Hasan and Pokimane are both scared that Kick will succeed, which is why they have been critical of his deal. Back on June 16, xQc set the internet ablaze when it was revealed that he\u2019d be signing a non-exclusive deal with Kick worth up to $100 million. Plenty of streamers congratulated the Twitch star on getting such a massive payday, but there have been others who\u2019ve been critical, because of Kick associated with Stake \u2013 the crypto casino and gambling website. Pokimane has been one of the vocal critics of Kick, saying she wouldn\u2019t make the move for $10 million as it would \u201ccompromise\u201d her \u201cmorals and ethics. Hasan has also expressed his skepticism, suggesting that Kick would face heightened scrutiny from both creators and the media now that it was signing larger and larger talent. xQc talked more about the backlash the two other streamers have expressed about the deal in his most recent stream. xQc thinks Hasan and Pokimane are \u201cscared\u201d of Kick\u2019s possible success In a stream on June 22, 2023, xQc watch Hasan\u2019s recent stream where he talked with MoistCr1TiKal about Felix\u2019s deal with Kick. Hasan and Moist were discussing their thoughts on Kick offering streamer contracts. Moist has previously described Twitch as being a \u201csinking ship\u201d after finding out about xQc\u2019s contract with Kick, whereas Hasan was worried about Kick\u2019s connection with Stake. Reacting to the conversation live on his stream, xQc argued that Hasan, as well as Pokimane are both scared of Kick becoming a successful platform. \u201cThe only reason they\u2019re talking s**t is that they\u2019ve just realized that \u2018holy f**k, it might actually work\u2019, and that scares them,\u201d xQc said. \u201cBecause if this s**t fails and they pull the plug, all they will have is their morals and ethics in their hands, and f**king nothing else. And not a platform to brag about it anymore. \u201cEmpty hands, morals, and that should be enough for you. Morals and ethics should be what you care about, right? Not what it comes with then? But it seems like these guys, they want to dip their f**king bread into the sauce, and they want to also eat it then. And there\u2019s a chance they might not be able to do that then if that s**t f**ks up, and that scares them. \u201cThey are afraid, and I\u2019m not gonna say \u2018oh, they\u2019re just because they\u2019re broke\u2019, I\u2019m not gonna do that. Actually, I will, yes. They are scared because they might become broke then.\u201d For more news and updates on xQc\u2019s deal and what it means for the streaming industry, check out the top streamer reactions to his annoucement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
