The Twitch streamer elaborated:

"Just like, you know, under a lot of conditions. And one of those not being a completely unregulated website based on crypto in the middle of nowhere, in the middle of Bermuda Triangle or some s**t, okay?"

He concluded by saying:

"That's not... that' not okay, obviously. Obviously. I can't. I just can't. Okay, let's quit that one."

He then queued up for another game of Hearthstone and continued streaming for an hour and a half.

Fans react to Kripparrian's take on gambling

Fans provided their take on Kripp's opinion. Some questioned whether gambling could even be considered a meta on the platform.

Other Redditors stated that gambling could be considered a Twitch meta because several top streamers like xQc and Trainwreckstv often stream gambling-related content to more than 200k concurrent viewers.

Some fans discussed the questionable tactics used by certain gambling websites to increase their user retention rate.

Kripp is a famous personality in the streaming sphere and began livestreaming on Twitch when it was known as Justin.tv. The Canadian streamer has more than 1.4 million followers and gets an average of 4.6k concurrent viewers per stream.
