xQc opens up about getting paid for his Kick gambling streams

Previously, xQc primarily focused on gaming and reaction content on Twitch, a platform that has strict rules against gambling-related content.

However, after switching over to Kick, he found a way to incorporate gambling streams into his content. Although he joined Kick under a multi-million dollar contract that allowed for gambling content, xQc initially told his viewers that his contract did not specify any gambling allowance and that he wasn't paid to gamble on stream.

The truth came to light during one of his recent live streams when a viewer said, "Why do you lie so much when it comes to gambling, just admit you get paid and move on xQc."

In response, xQc claimed that he had never lied about it and insisted that everyone knew he was getting paid for it.

xQc said, "Bro, Bro, I have never lied once before about it, everybody knows I am."

Another viewer pointed out that if he didn't gamble with their money, there would be no need for a Stake deal. xQc could not come up with a convincing response to this.

This revelation has sparked a backlash from the online community, with many criticizing xQc for misleading his viewers and calling him a liar.

The controversy surrounding his gambling content and payment has raised concerns among his fan base and the broader streaming community.

However, his viewers and netizens were skeptical about his commitment to this promise. Their doubts were validated when xQc continued to gamble, both online and offline, despite his earlier promise to quit.
