(AsiaGameHub) –   Controversial streamer Hasan “HasanAbi” Piker has recently called out fellow popular streamer xQc, alleging his promotion of gambling content harms society. xQc countered by accusing Hasan of hypocrisy regarding the political ideologies he advocates to his followers.

xQc Fires Back at HasanAbi

The longstanding rivalry between streamers xQc and Hasan has seen a new development. In a recent stream, Hasan posed a rhetorical question: “Are we comparing my contributions to the American political sphere the same as, like, xQc’s contributions to the gambling debt? It’s fucking insane.”

Addressing these comments, xQc argued that Hasan pushes socialism on his audience without adhering to its principles himself. “Bro is sending all his boys on this rabbit hole of socialism, when he doesn’t participate in his own system. His viewers could be rolling in cash, instead, they’re preaching this dogshit,” the Canadian streamer stated.

It’s All Part of an Ongoing Feud

The conflict dates back to 2022, when xQc ranked Piker in the “B” tier on a YouTube list, prompting Piker to criticize xQc for promoting crypto gambling to young viewers. The feud intensified in October 2025 after Piker faced significant backlash for using a shock collar on his dog, an incident widely debated online that damaged his reputation. xQc subsequently released a long video accusing Piker of animal abuse.

Gambling has been central to xQc’s content for years, particularly after he signed a lucrative deal with the streaming platform Kick. A co-founder of Kick owns Stake, a major online gambling site, which has sponsored xQc’s streams. xQc has disclosed he earns $200,000 for each gambling broadcast.

In the world of online entertainment, where personalities like xQc and Piker wield significant influence over their audiences, clashes are common. Their ongoing dispute underscores the power and accountability that come with a major digital platform, and how it can shape the perspectives of millions worldwide.

xQc has further claimed that, should he resume streaming on Twitch, he would continue to promote Stake despite the platform’s stricter gambling content policies.
