Adin Ross Remains Committed to Kick, Hints at Major Future Plans
Popular streamer Adin Ross has confirmed his long-term commitment to the Kick streaming platform, ending speculation about his departure. Ross's unexpected absence from Kick earlier in 2024 fueled rumors of a potential exit, but his recent return with a new livestream alongside fellow creators Cuffem, Shaggy, and Konvy, effectively silenced those concerns.
Ross, known for his significant online presence and sometimes controversial content, joined Kick after a permanent ban from Twitch in 2023. His move, alongside other prominent streamers like xQc, significantly contributed to Kick's rapid growth. While he enjoyed success on the platform throughout 2023, his abrupt departure in 2024 sparked uncertainty among fans and led to reports of a rift with Kick CEO Ed Craven. However, a December 21, 2024 livestream with Craven confirmed Ross' intention to remain on Kick. A subsequent tweet further solidified this commitment, promising a continued presence on the platform. His January 4, 2025 livestream marked his triumphant return after a 74-day absence.
Ambitious Future Projects on the Horizon
Ross's tweet also hinted at "something even bigger" in the works, fueling speculation amongst his followers. Many believe this relates to his Brand Risk boxing events, a project he intends to expand with Kick's support. Given previous legal challenges with Misfits Boxing earlier in 2024, the success of future Brand Risk ventures will be closely watched.
Ross's decision to stay with Kick is a significant boost for both the streamer and the platform itself. Kick, which aims to either surpass or acquire Twitch, has been aggressively pursuing deals with high-profile content creators. This strategy, along with Ross's renewed commitment, suggests Kick is well-positioned for continued growth and success in the competitive streaming market.
