Adin Ross Remains Committed to Kick with "Bigger" Plans on the Horizon
Popular streamer Adin Ross has definitively ended speculation about his future, confirming his intention to remain on the Kick streaming platform long-term. Ross's unexpected absence from Kick earlier in 2024 fueled rumors of a potential departure, but his recent return with a new livestream and a firm statement puts those rumors to rest.
Ross, known for his significant online presence and occasionally controversial content, joined Kick after a permanent ban from Twitch in 2023. His move, along with other high-profile streamers like xQc, significantly boosted Kick's growth. While 2023 was successful for Ross on Kick, his sudden absence in 2024 sparked widespread uncertainty and speculation, including rumors of a rift with Kick CEO Ed Craven.
However, during a joint livestream with Craven on December 21, 2024, Ross confirmed his commitment to Kick, reversing months of speculation suggesting otherwise. He further solidified this commitment in a recent tweet, assuring fans of his return and stating his intent to "stay for good this time." His return to streaming on the weekend of January 4, 2025, alongside Cuffem, Shaggy, and Konvy, marked his first livestream in 74 days.
Ambitious Future Plans for Ross and Kick
Ross's tweet also hinted at "something even bigger" on the horizon, though details remain undisclosed. Many believe this relates to his Brand Risk boxing events, a project he's previously indicated he intends to expand with Kick's support. Given past legal challenges with Misfits Boxing earlier in 2024 over unsanctioned events, future Brand Risk ventures will likely benefit from a more carefully planned approach.
Ross's continued presence is a significant win for both himself and Kick. The platform, fueled by partnerships with major streamers, continues its ambitious growth trajectory. As Kick co-founder Bijan Tehrani recently stated, their ultimate goal is to either surpass or acquire Twitch – a bold aspiration that, considering their current momentum, appears increasingly achievable.
