In the future, do you think that Kick will overtake Twitch in terms of statistics?

If yes, do you think that it's because of the deal between Kick and xQc?

i'm kinda mixed on this cuz kick is a interesting streaming service owned by a crypto casino. they gave him millions of dollar to prolly promote their casino.
and if it's anything about cryptocurrency, then i'm not really happy about it cuz that NFT shit made me upset.

Actually I didn't know that kick is owned by a crypto casino, I've never seen any NFT or something like that on kick so idk if it will impact the platform

honestly i think kick is only gaining more relevancy mostly due to twitch making horrible decisions with monetization practices and kick cashing in on that opportunity to make themselves look miles better in comparison to the biggest live streaming service on the internet. i feel like twitch really just let their level of fame get to their head and think they can easily get away with this stuff and make huge amounts of cash which usually they do but i genuinely hope it kicks the dirt after they tried turning livestreaming adverts into cable tv standards which make me easily quit watching. imagine if mixer had an opportunity like this instead of randomly signing shroud and ninja when twitch was easily thriving lmao

well, twitch did fuck up with the monetization im kinda worried if like the twitch industry fails though. cuz kick is being owned by an crypto casino.

I kinda agree with you, i mean, when you go to their site you can literally see "Slots & Casino" as the first category.

Of course, but they can buy big english streamers to force fans to go to https://kick.com/ so they can see their favorite streamers

They don't want to quit Twitch and honestly, it's understandable

While Kick is a good contender, for the moment, twitch is still huge enough that they don't need to worry for another say half a year. Kick has a strong start and is adding some features to make it more appealing for everyone (hiding gambling streams feature) but only time will tell if that means it will hold up, especially since they host gambling streams on the side (something something government intervention) While for twitch shit is not looking good for them. In their bid of greed, they have screwed over a good chunk of their actual revenue by hurting sponsorships between streamers and are always going out of their way to kinda gaslight everyone into thinking they are going to do better (corporation moment) to the point it's not working anymore. So it is unknown if things are gonna change in a way to help them in time or if they will be left in the dust. Who knows, maybe Microsoft will get Mixer back off the ground just to kick Twitch in the balls for funsies. I don't know, all I do know is Youtube should take this opportunity to make YTLive better lol

so twitch kinda cracked down on it a little bit

and now they made another website where they can freely promote gambling and pool streams

flawless plan

Honesty I kind of hope Twitch has some genuine competition so they're more motivated to doing updates that people actually like.

People are waiting for another Twitch drama to move to Kick or another platform again to express their anger or something. I don't really hope that Twitch will have a real competitor in the future if people are still using it
