Adin Ross hit with Kick ban after new gambling deal, here's what we know so far
Prominent Kick streamer Adin Ross had been banned from the Stake-owned platform following his signing with a new gambling sponsor, and fans are speculating whether that switch has anything to do with his Kick channel getting taken down.
Adin Ross is one of the top streamers on Kick, and he was recently in the limelight for seeming drama with the platform’s CEO. The streamer was apparently set to leave the platform, but ended up staying on Kick with the beef seemingly buried. Just a few days ago, rumors began circulating that Adin was leaving Stake to sign a new gambling sponsorship deal with Rainbet. This prompted fans to speculate as to whether he’d still be able to stream on Kick, and Ross has now been banned during his first stream with Rainbet as a sponsor.

Adin Ross banned from Kick for first time
Streamer Adin Ross has never been banned from Kick before this first ban, and the timing of the suspension has raised eyebrows in his community, as it was implemented shortly after the content creator dropped Stake as his primary betting sponsor.
Adin Ross has been a part of his fair share of controversies, beefing with other fellow streamers and even Kick CEO Eddie Craven. But Kick has never taken any action against the streamer’s channel, and he continues to stream according to his own schedule. Ross being banned right after he changed his gambling sponsorship has now raised new questions.
Adin Ross on Kick
Kick hasn’t offered any official reason for
Adin Ross being banned, and the streamer was clearly surprised when he found out his channel had been taken down. The streamer was broadcasting his first stream with Rainbet as his gambling sponsor instead of Stake, which backs Kick. This is why many viewers instantly began claiming that the streamer was banned for leaving Stake, but this remains purely speculative for now.
Adin Ross is one of the more popular streamers on Kick, so the platform may not want the streamer away for too long. But with the reason for the ban remaining unconfirmed, it’s still unclear how long the suspension will be for.
Streamer Adin Ross has claimed that his Rainbet sponsor deal is earning him a staggering $100 million, double the $50 million previously rumored.
Adin discussed his deal with Rainbet, claiming to fans that he took it because his friends would also benefit. Viewers were curious exactly how much money the new deal brought in for Adin personally, and he stated on stream that he
made $100 million on the deal upfront. He also revealed that the deal offers him greater freedom, and he may soon
start streaming on Twitch
again after he was unbanned there following a lengthy suspension.
Viewers expressed their support for the streamer to
begin streaming on Twitch, even though it was still just a possibility, and Adin hasn’t guaranteed that he would go live on the Amazon-backed platform. But with his being banned on Kick, the chances of Adin streaming on Twitch have now increased significantly.
