Amouranth looking to take over Twitch with "ball pit meta"

Amouranth ball pit meta

Kaitlyn “Amouranth” Siragusa was at the forefront of the hot tub meta, then the yoga pants ASMR meta. Now, Amouranth is looking to jumpstart the ball pit meta after purchasing a plastic ball manufacturing company.

Amouranth had her first “ball pit” Twitch stream earlier this week, standing ankle-deep in a room full of plastic balls. Amouranth waded through the floor of balls and even rolled around in them.

In the initial stream, Amouranth said she would add another ball for every subscription or $2 donation. If someone donated five subs or $25, Amouranth would add the fan’s name to a ball.

Amouranth investments the reason behind ball pit meta

In 2021, Amouranth made a lot of interesting business-related purchases, including a convenience store and gas station. The gas station was an especially fishy purchase, with many speculating it was a tax dodge scheme.

But in 2022, Amouranth has stepped it up by purchasing a plastic ball manufacturer that makes balls for playpens and ball pits.

Amouranth said that this was a seven-figure investment but promised fans it wasn’t a “tax angle” purchase this time around. Instead, she said the numbers “just make sense,” allowing her to create a “diversified stream of cash flow.”

On top of that, Amouranth now has easy access to an abundance of balls for her new streaming gimmick. An Amouranth ball pit meta is certainly more logistically viable than a gas station meta.

In a follow-up tweet, Amouranth explained that she has a minority stake in the business, meaning she doesn’t need to be involved in day-to-day management and operations. She said she prefers to be more “diversified.”
