Adin Ross Remains Committed to Kick, Hints at "Bigger" Plans
Popular streamer Adin Ross has definitively ended speculation about his future, confirming his intention to remain on the Kick streaming platform. After a mysterious absence in 2024 that fueled rumors of a departure, Ross's recent return with a new livestream signals a long-term commitment.
Ross, known for his engaging (and sometimes controversial) content, joined Kick following a Twitch ban in 2023. His move, alongside other prominent streamers, significantly contributed to Kick's rapid growth. While 2023 saw considerable success, his unexpected hiatus in 2024 sparked widespread uncertainty and fueled reports of a potential rift with Kick CEO Ed Craven.
However, a December 21, 2024 livestream with Craven dispelled these rumors, with Ross explicitly stating his intention to stay. He further solidified this commitment in a recent tweet, assuring fans of his permanent return. His January 4, 2025 livestream, marking his return after a 74-day absence, alongside Cuffem, Shaggy, and Konvy, confirmed his renewed presence on the platform.
Ambitious Future Projects on the Horizon
Ross's tweet also hinted at "something even bigger" in the pipeline, though details remain undisclosed. Many speculate 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 is a significant boost for both his fanbase and Kick. The platform, actively competing with Twitch, aims for either market dominance or acquisition, a goal that seems increasingly attainable given its current momentum and roster of high-profile streamers. Kick co-founder Bijan Tehrani's recent comments about surpassing or acquiring Twitch reflect the platform's ambitious goals.
