LISTEN TO THIS ARTICLE:Known as one of the most prominent faces of gambling, or "gamba" streaming, xQc recently revealed that he has wagered nearly $3 billion ($2,954,379,433.22) on the online gambling platform Stake.com. Despite taking a hiatus and Twitch’s ban on gambling streams in 2022, xQc resumed his gambling ventures after joining Kick in June 2023.
During a recent live stream on September 16, the French-Canadian content creator shared his profile on Stake.com, showcasing his gambling statistics. The eye-popping figures included over 1.1 million bets, with 112,000 wins and more than 1.01 million losses. A screenshot of these statistics was later shared by one of his verified fan pages (@iqkev) on X, prompting a wave of reactions from viewers and fans.
Mixed Reactions from Fans and the Community
The revelation left many fans puzzled and concerned, with some assuming that xQc’s massive gambling activities might not involve his own money. This suspicion stems from rumors suggesting that he could be sponsored by Stake.com, allowing him to place these high-stakes bets without risking his personal finances.
One user on X.com commented: "It’s not his money, so he doesn’t care. He gets paid to use Stake's money to gamble and get others addicted to gambling. Look at that win-loss ratio. It is one reason why you should never gamble."
Such comments reflect the growing concern among viewers and critics about the potential risks of gambling content on streaming platforms, especially given xQc's influence. Despite the debates surrounding its ethics, gambling has become a defining aspect of xQc’s content, particularly since his move to Kick, which is known for its lenient policies compared to Twitch.

A Cautionary Tale of High-Stakes Risks
This isn’t the first time xQc has disclosed his gambling activities. In September 2023, he revealed that his total wagered amount on Stake.com had reached $1.5 billion. The recent figures indicate that in just 12 months, he doubled that amount, adding another $1.5 billion to his gambling history. The staggering increase raises questions about the nature of his relationship with Stake.com and Kick.
While xQc’s gambling escapades may seem enticing to some, they highlight the potential dangers of gambling addiction. His experience serves as a reminder to exercise caution and skepticism before engaging in similar activities. Online gambling, especially at such high stakes, is fraught with risk, and the win-loss ratio often skews toward loss. Fans and viewers are encouraged to be mindful of these risks and understand that xQc’s situation may not be typical, given possible sponsorship deals behind the scenes.
