Just to let you know Gamdom Partners @TheGoobr and @stevewilldoit all this scammers @mockerbey @yungreal69 is fake as fuck all Gamdom streamers playing with Fake money. Disgusting scammers the whole Gamdom..
I got a deal bi weekly $15,000 but declined!
Thanks anyway @Romer
TLDR of the @mconthatgambles vs @stevewilldoit drama:
MC made a thread on X saying he was Steve's #1 wagerer on Gamdom with around $45M wagered under his code and roughly $1M in losses
he admits Steve treated him extremely well during his first month and was giving him ridiculous bonuses on top of what Gamdom was already offering
however during the second month MC claims Steve started ghosting him, the extra bonuses got smaller or stopped completely and he started having issues with Steve's mod @kingadukes
he also accused ADukes of receiving hundreds of thousands in VIP tips that allegedly weren't being distributed properly and claims he was even asking him for loans
MC eventually left Gamdom and around 2 weeks later got a sponsorship with Dicey
things escalated when Steve posted about Gamdom having the best sports odds and MC publicly disagreed with him
Steve responded pretty aggressively and accused MC of being a clout chaser who used his connections to get deals elsewhere
Steve also said he personally gave MC around $200k and even his private phone number but eventually stopped dealing with him because of how he was acting
the extra rewards Steve was giving his VIPs were never advertised as guaranteed bonuses and were simply additional tips he would give out at his own discretion
Gamdom owner @Romer also got involved saying MC had been rewarded extremely well and suggested his new Dicey sponsorship was influencing his criticism
MC has since responded again saying his issue was never about being entitled to bonuses but rather being ignored, how ADukes handled the VIP funds and Steve insulting him after everything
he has also now said he's done with the Twitter drama since it's turning into a he said she said situation and doesn't see anything coming out of it
some of these gambling streamers are getting paid ridiculous amounts just because they have a big following
meanwhile I'm doing better affiliate numbers than most of them without even streaming
941 signups, over $10.1M wagered and $20.5k in referral earnings
think it's time I start asking casinos for a proper deal
the problem is I faked every single one of those numbers in just a couple of minutes
the video below shows how easy it would be for someone to fake their affiliate stats and use them to get casino sponsorships they don't actually deserve
someone could buy a verified channel, fake followers, viewers and comments, run a few giveaways to make the engagement look real and then start approaching casinos with their impressive affiliate stats
with the setup I used in the video I can change pretty much any number on a website and make it look completely real
I've already seen streamers getting scammed by similar things where someone fakes their deposits or losses to claim lossback and the streamer doesn't bother checking properly
and the scary part is that it's even more convincing when someone already has some real players and affiliate activity
imagine a streamer who already has some decent affiliate numbers but not enough to get a big deal
they could just multiply those numbers by 10 and suddenly look like a much more valuable affiliate
and this also makes things worse for creators who are actually legit
casinos now have to go through multiple steps of verification before signing someone which can obviously be pretty annoying for genuine creators who have nothing to hide
I've also seen people asking for phone recordings because they think those can't be tampered with
but as you can see in the video we're doing this on a phone and even after constantly refreshing the page all the fake stats are still there
on PC it's even easier to manipulate what you're seeing
so whether you're a casino negotiating with a streamer or a creator giving out bonuses, don't trust screenshots or recordings alone
always double check the numbers directly with casino staff because even getting on a call and watching someone go through their stats doesn't necessarily prove anything
first of all I think the whole loans and markers culture in the gambling community has gotten way too normalized
we constantly see people borrowing money to gamble and I really don't think bigger streamers should be endorsing or encouraging this kind of thing
now regarding @Scoobyz88, it looks like he still hasn't paid back the ~$20k he owes @babix_betbolt and that's a pretty terrible look
what makes this even weirder is that from what I've seen his Stake deal seems to be worth somewhere around $60k a month
obviously I don't know the exact terms of his deal, how much he actually cashes out or whether he has a lot more debt elsewhere
but if he's really getting anywhere close to that amount in fills, $20k is only a third of his monthly payment
you would think he could just chill for a couple of streams, gamble a bit safer and put his cashouts towards sorting out the debt instead of letting things get to this point
again there could be a lot more going on behind the scenes that we don't know about but the whole situation is pretty weird
now do I think Stake will actually drop him over this? probably not
from what we've seen I don't think Stake is likely to get involved in situations like this unless it directly affects their partnership
and to be fair we already know Stake's stance on these loans and markers
they don't give their creators markers themselves and don't endorse this kind of lending either
either way it's pretty wild seeing creators on deals this big getting involved in $20k loan disputes
🚨 Scammer alert @Scoobyz88
We would strongly recommend you do not deal with this individual. He took $20,000 from us, agreed to the terms twice, and it seems he has 0 care in the world about paying it back.
Let's dive into it 🧵
TJR is the first and currently the only @getonmoon affiliate with their badge on X
this move shouldn't really come as a surprise considering he joined Stake around 2 weeks ago and is one of the biggest influencers in the trading space
it's pretty much a no-brainer to have him as one of the main faces of Moon
Shuffle might have just pulled off one of the smartest marketing moves we've seen from a crypto casino in a long time
they signed @dohertyjackk to a deal that apparently prevents him from posting on social media for 6 months
sounds ridiculous at first but when you look at how much people dislike Jack and how much attention this story has already brought to Shuffle, you start to understand why this might actually be a brilliant marketing move
first let's look at how this whole thing started
on September 28 Jack Doherty was talking about going live on Kick to trade memecoins when Shuffle's official account replied saying they would literally pay him to shut up
at the time it just looked like another brand trolling Jack since he's one of those creators who gets an insane amount of hate online
then a few days later Jack posted that he was looking for sponsorships and Shuffle came back saying their original offer was actually legit
fast forward to October 10 and Jack suddenly announces that he signed a contract with Shuffle without reading it properly and apparently isn't allowed to post on social media anymore
Shuffle's co-founder @noahdummett then confirmed that the deal was real and had a 6 month term, even saying it was money well spent to get Jack off the internet
as of right now Jack's original post has over 12.3M views and is now marked as a paid partnership which wasn't the case when it was first posted
Noah's quote tweet is sitting at over 16M views and a bunch of other big accounts covering the story have also pulled millions of views each
so just from the amount of attention this generated you can already see how well this worked out for Shuffle
and the funniest part is Shuffle didn't even need people to like Jack for this to work
they basically turned all the hate he gets into millions of impressions and positive attention for their own brand
now of course I wouldn't be surprised if Jack is back soon streaming and creating content for Shuffle instead of actually disappearing for 6 months
I guess we'll just have to wait and see!

sittin' out on my porch, I'm in disbelief
Clarence has been typing at 150 WPM since he was eleven years old.
Eleven. 11.
While other kids were outside touching grass, Clarence was in Type Racer demolishing grown men in typing races. Undefeated. Infinite aura. Unspoken rizz. Spoken about only in whispers.
And what did he get for it?
Nothing.
No trophy. No parade. His mother did not care at all. His classmates bullied him. He told a girl at a party once and she said "oh cool" and then went and talked to a D1 basketball athlete.
He put "fast typist" on a CV once. A man in a suit looked at it and said "right" and then proceeded to ask him where he saw himself in five years.
Fifteen years of elite hand speed and the only thing it ever won him was being the fastest person in the group chat to say "first"
Meanwhile the universe is handing out money to people who can throw a ball into a hoop.
A hoop. It's like we are still in the stone age.
Clarence can type the entire opening of Don Quixote before you finish reading this post and society said "yeah but can you dunk"
Well.
Type Racer is live. 1v1. for money.
Fifteen years, Clarence. Fifteen years.
Get your money.
And you know what? maybe I am the Clarence in question. it's my time to shine, probably gonna cut off all my day 1's and go hollywood
Let me rephrase I WILL forget ALL OF YOU, duel is calling out my name.
I am being summoned and will take all of your $$
expect me. like you expect death.

WTF DID @TheGoobr JUST DO?? 🤯
Hits a $500K win on Power of Ten OFF STREAM → goes live → runs it all the way up to $3.5 MILLION !!
Mitch Jones just signed one of the craziest gambling deals I've seen in a while
$420k in daily fills on Rainbet
so I wanted to break down his deal and see how paying someone this much can actually make sense for Rainbet
first let's talk about the deal itself which Mitch shared publicly on his Twitter
he gets $420k in daily fills sent to a separate account under the username MitchJonesVault
from there he can tip however much he wants over to his main streaming account Mitchjones and gamble with it
there's no max cashout per stream and no bullets either, meaning if he loses the balance quickly there are no extra refills
the deal also lists a $5k weekly tipping allowance which a lot of his fans pointed out is basically a meme left over from his first deal
because in reality Mitch says he's already giving away $200k+ almost every day across Twitter, Discord and Twitch
now let's go over some numbers on Mitch's main socials
he has almost 750k followers on Twitch where he averages around 7k viewers with peaks of 10k+
and 170k+ followers on Twitter where he's getting millions of impressions every month
for October he's also running a $1.5M leaderboard for the top wagerers under his Rainbet code, upgraded from the $1M leaderboard he ran the previous month
on top of that he offers wagering rewards through his website with up to $200k in possible rewards for someone who reaches $50M wagered under his code
now let's talk about the important numbers
$420k in daily fills comes out to around $12.6M every 30 days or over $150M worth of fills per year
but it's very important not to look at that number as Mitch actually earning $150M straight to his bank
these are fills that he's gambling with
and as a lot of people have already pointed out Mitch gambles way more aggressively than he probably needs to and is a pretty massive degen himself
so a lot of that balance can simply be lost back to the casino
then combine that with the insane amount he gives away
if he only realizes somewhere around 30-40% after gambling and giveaways, the actual take-home looks very different
still obviously an insane amount of money
now let's look at what his players are actually doing
for September Mitch had a $1M leaderboard and the wager on it is weighted
his website says all wagers are adjusted to a standardized 98% RTP
his #1 player alone had around $104M in weighted wager
at a 98% RTP that's roughly $2.08M in expected GGR for Rainbet from just that one player
of course the actual result can be drastically different depending on whether that player actually won or lost
his top 5 players combined had over $210M in weighted wager
and even the #100 player on his leaderboard had over $460k wagered
so just from the leaderboard alone you can see how much high-value action Mitch is bringing under his code
and when you combine that with how much of his fills he gambles back himself and how much he's constantly giving away, you start to understand how a $420k daily fill can make sense
now let's look at Rainbet
they're currently ranked #4 among the casinos we track by deposit volume with almost $296M in deposits over the last 30 days
and with Mitch's deal revealed Rainbet now has 2 of the biggest streamer deals in gambling
Mitch at $420k per day and Trainwrecks who has publicly said his deal is worth around $50M a month
at first glance I completely understand why people see $420k every single day and immediately question whether the deal is actually real
that's a ridiculous number
but multiple reputable streamers have already vouched for Mitch and said the deal is 100% real and raw
and huge props to Mitch for actually being this transparent about it and showing people exactly what he's getting
once you look past the $12.6M monthly headline and start looking at the wager he's bringing in, the whales under his code, how much he gambles himself and how much of the money goes straight back into giveaways, the deal starts looking very different
still an insane amount of money either way
but based on these numbers do you think Rainbet is actually getting good value from the deal?

I just made $100K in 1 minute…
I deposited $20k to try this Limbo strategy I’ve been seeing everywhere and somehow it went insane
the strategy is pretty simple
you chase 9x with big bets and every time you win you double the bet amount twice before going back to the original amount
unless you hit again…
then you double it again
I was down to my last $1K bet and somehow ran it all the way up to $100K right after
I even withdrew the full amount in the video
now this would be great if any of it was real
the entire video was fake
I made it to show how easy it is for someone to larp as a high roller on gambling twitter and make huge bets, wins and even withdrawals look almost identical to the real thing
and there’s actually a reason people do this
these clips can go viral and farm millions of impressions which makes the person look like a real whale
from there they can use that image to get debt from people who think they’re genuinely betting these amounts or ask creators/casinos for money upfront to bring them under their code
so next time you see someone randomly doing insane bets don’t automatically assume they’re some massive high roller
the easiest thing to look for is whether they publicly share their casino username or actual bet slips that can be verified directly on the casino
a good example is @Jelitics who became known for these kinds of huge bets, especially on sports
the difference is he always shared his username and bet slips so it was pretty easy to verify that the bets were actually real
we also track high rollers ourselves on FairGambling where you can verify their casino usernames and activity
for example here’s one of Jelitics’ profile: fairgambling.com/players/gem…
if someone is constantly posting huge bets but never gives you anything that can actually be verified I would be very skeptical
and this isn’t limited to one game either
the same type of fakery can appear across originals, slots and other casino games
from the video alone it can look basically identical to a real session
so next time you see some random account casually doing $10k, $50k or $100k bets think twice before assuming the money on screen is actually real

If you're interested in GambleFi, you should already know about ethereum:0x8881562783028f5c1bcb985d2283d5e170d88888
The price went from $0.39 to a peak of $0.72 in about 10 hours on Sep 27. On-chain, roughly ~$4.48M in buys vs ~$3.37M in sells since then, about $1.1M net in.
The biggest buyer withdrew $2.2M USDC from Binance and ran it through a Definitive TWAP vault. It bought ~$1.5k of SHFL every 24 seconds for 19 hours straight, ~$1.98M total, and consolidated 3.24M SHFL into one wallet.
Separately, well-known trader izebel.eth used two wallets to buy $438k and deposited all 1M SHFL straight into Shuffle.
Staked SHFL unlocks after Friday's lottery draw, and over the last 12 weeks about 69% of what gets withdrawn that weekend was sold on-chain within 72 hours. If I had to guess I'd say it will be a fist fight for sellers come Friday.

Gamdom creators have been pushing hard to get Gamdom to #1 lately. So how far away are they actually?
Over the last 7 days, Stake did $444.4M in deposits vs $51.5M on Gamdom, around 8.6x more. Stake also had 254K unique wallets vs 12.6K, so there’s still a pretty big gap to close.
very good follow up with some much needed context from my tweet yesterday 👇
there has been a lot of noise around @enginedotio recently
big streamers are launching their own slot studios, stake engine rebranded to engine and is now expanding to other casinos, and since april stake streamers have only been allowed to play on these categories only: only on stake, new releases, stake originals and live games
engine itself is also a pretty interesting model which benefits easygo as a company but also every game studio and individual building on this ecosystem
studios can either take 7.5% of expected GGR or 10% of realized GGR, while engine provides most of the infrastructure and distribution
so let’s take a look at how big the engine has become inside stake and how much money is flowing through these games
here are the numbers:
over the last 28 days Stake reported $23.73B in casino wager across all games and $978M in sportsbook wager
$8.25B came from third party providers
$7.96B from Engine games
$7.51B from Stake Originals
$978M from their in-house Sportsbook
meaning engine alone now accounts for 32.2% of all casino wager on stake
so engine games are currently doing roughly 8x the wager of the entire Stake sportsbook, but one important disclaimer before looking deeper into those numbers:
Stake’s displayed wager includes streamer wager
@blackcoffeeslot confirmed: "this number displayed on stake includes affiliate wager, which doesn’t contribute towards what a provider gets paid, which will account for an enormous amount of this wager number"
so streams and gameplay of @Trainwreckstv or @BigFoltz is being reflected in the total amount of stake is reporting
meanwhile the official engine website doesn't count that streamer wager towards their stats so we can calculate the difference and we can pretty much see the impact right away when comparing the number reported on stake with the number of the same game on the engine website
@ValkyrieXStudio is probably the most extreme example because Train is always playing their games so heavily
engine reports $1.31B in Valkyrie turnover over the last 30 days, on stake itself the number is $4.08B wagered on Valkyrie games in only 28 days
Waylanders Forge clearly the most popular game in the engine having more wager than place #2 to #5 combined marks a difference of $705.9M on engine stats to $2.98B on stake
for most other engine studios the gap is much smaller, which makes sense considering just how much Valkyrie volume comes from train and other streamers playing their games
and this is also important for the Valkyrie numbers @erion0x posted yesterday
if you take the wager and actual RTP displayed on Stake and apply Engine’s 10% realized GGR model, Valkyrie’s games look insanely profitable
in our 28 day Stake data alone Valkyrie generated $4.08B in wager and around $109M in realized GGR
10% of that would theoretically be $10.9M for Valkyrie
but that’s not what they actually get paid
engine reports only $1.31b in eligible turnover because streamer wager is excluded, and engine doesn’t publish the actual rtp of that eligible volume
so we know the exact turnover they use for publisher payments, but not enough to calculate valkyrie’s exact payout
but we can get pretty close
the top 100 engine studios generated $3.19b in eligible turnover over the last 30 days
the top 100 games alone account for $2.63b of that
applying each game’s theoretical house edge to its engine turnover gives us roughly $82m in expected ggr across the games
under engine’s guaranteed model, 7.5% of that would mean roughly $6.1m paid to studios in a single month
if we instead apply the actual rtp we observed for those same games on stake, they would have generated roughly $117m in realized ggr
at engine’s 10% profit share that would translate to roughly $11.7m for the studios
obviously the second number is an estimate since we don’t know the actual rtp specifically for the non-streamer wagers engine counts, and different studios can choose different payment models
but it gives us a pretty good range for how much money is already flowing to engine studios every month
and there is another interesting part to the economics
once engine expands these games to outside operators, the split changes to 93% for the casino, 5% for the studio and 2% for engine
so on $100m in realized ggr distributed through engine, that would mean roughly $93m for the operator, $5m for the studio and $2m for engine
and when you remove the stake streamer wager, the size of engine inside stake also looks very different
using engine’s own publisher-eligible turnover instead:
$8.25b third party providers - 41.4%
$7.51b stake originals - 37.7%
$3.19b engine - 16.0%
$978m sportsbook - 4.9%
so while engine represents 32.2% of the total wager displayed across stake, the non-streamer turnover reported by engine itself brings that share down to roughly 16%
still a pretty crazy number considering engine is already doing more non-streamer wager than 3x stake’s entire sportsbook
and for some perspective, eddie recently confirmed the scale engine has already reached over the past year:
$24b+ in turnover
$90m+ paid out to publishers
4,000+ games built
1,000+ unique publishers
all while engine content was previously only available on stake
everyone suddenly wants their own slot studio
big creators are building Engine providers and other casinos are trying to replicate what Stake created
so I wanted to look at why this model has become so popular and most importantly how much money the top studios are actually making
Engine, previously known as Stake Engine, originally started as Stake's own remote gaming server where independent creators could build and publish casino games directly on Stake using its infrastructure
earlier this month Stake Engine officially rebranded to just Engine and is now expanding beyond Stake
Roobet is currently the first outside operator while other casinos can already apply, with broader integrations launching on December 11
Engine provides most of the infrastructure, hosting and documentation needed to get a game live
but making a game people actually want to keep playing and can generate hundreds of millions in wager is obviously a completely different story
and this is where the money gets interesting
Engine gives creators 2 ways to get paid
the first is the guaranteed model which gives studios more consistent income
you get 7.5% of the expected GGR based on your game's RTP
so a game with 98% RTP has a 2% expected house edge
on $1M wagered that's $20k in expected GGR and the studio would make $1.5k
the second option is profit share where you get 10% of the actual GGR
if players lose $100k on your games you make $10k
if they instead win $100k your profit share balance goes $10k negative and future GGR first has to clear that balance before you get paid again
you can switch between the 2 models monthly although any negative profit share balance still has to be cleared
and now with Engine expanding outside of Stake there’s another choice studios have to make
if they keep their games exclusive to Stake they can keep the full 10% GGR share
but if they want their games available to other casinos through Engine the split changes
93% goes to the casino, 2% goes to Engine and 5% goes to the creator
so the studio basically gives up half of its revenue share in exchange for distributing the same game across multiple casinos
if Engine gets adopted widely that could obviously end up being much more valuable
now let’s talk about Valkyrie Studio which is probably the biggest success story on Engine so far
the studio was founded by @ProdigyDDK with @Trainwreckstv and @Yassuo also involved from what we know
Prodigy has publicly shared on stream that Valkyrie uses the profit share model which makes this really interesting because Stake also shows exactly how much has been wagered and the actual RTP of each game
Valkyrie currently has only 19 games but has already done around $15B in wager and over 1.5B bets
just to put that into perspective let’s compare it to Nolimit City
Nolimit has been around for years and has 118 games on Stake with around $18B wagered and 3B+ bets
Valkyrie is already close to that wager with only 19 games
obviously they also have some huge advantages
Trainwrecks is the biggest gambling streamer in the world and heavily promotes their games, the games themselves are genuinely popular and Stake has thousands of sponsored streamers who are heavily pushed towards playing Engine only games on stream
that gives Engine studios a level of exposure most traditional providers would have to spend years building
now for the fun part, how much has Valkyrie actually made from Stake?
to calculate that we first need to check how much has been wagered on each slot and what the actual RTP is so far
their most popular game Waylander's Forge: $9.67B wagered at 97.06% RTP = ~$284.3M GGR
Red Strike: $1B wagered at 114.8% RTP = ~-$148M GGR (ouch, this one hurts their profit quite a bit)
Angel of Asgard: $710M wagered at 98.05% RTP = ~$13.8M GGR
Waylander's Cup: $698M wagered at 93.81% RTP = ~$43.2M GGR
Odin's Vault: $619M wagered at 97.35% RTP = ~$16.4M GGR
and the other 14 games combined come out to around another $120M in GGR
put everything together and Valkyrie's games have generated roughly $330M in GGR for Stake so far
since Valkyrie uses the 10% profit share model that would put their estimated earnings at around $33M
maybe @ValkyrieXStudio can confirm or deny that figure
of course this doesn't mean Valkyrie pocketed $33M
that's before salaries, development costs and everything else that goes into constantly releasing new games
we also know Train owns part of Valkyrie and Yassuo is involved, with potentially other investors or partners we don't know about
but even after all of that ~$33M in estimated studio revenue from only 19 games is pretty crazy
and I think Valkyrie is probably the best example so far of what Engine can become
now that Engine is expanding beyond Stake this gets even more interesting
if a studio can do numbers like this mostly from Stake alone, what happens when the same games are live across multiple major casinos?
either way you really can't do much other than give props to Valkyrie and their team for what they've managed to build
