By Richik "anarkiddie" Bhattacharya Modified 21 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Clip showing TrainwrecksTV giving money to Twitch staff causes furore (Image via Sportskeeda) TrainwrecksTV and xQc's feud with certain streamers who took stances against gambling on Twitch has taken on a new dimension. Today, a clip showing Train giving large amounts of money to Twitch staff went viral on Twitter. Ostonox is an editor for HasanAbi, one of the most prominent critics of gambling on the Amazon-owned platform. The clip shared by him shows TrainwrecksTV giving away cryptocurrency worth at least $30,000 to a couple of Twitch employees. While there is nothing overtly illegal about accepting money from streamers, critics of the platform feel they cannot trust it to impose regulations. ostonox@ostonoxIt does strike me as weird that @Twitch staff are in Trainwreckstv's chat and accepting $50,000 in crypto from him.It must be hard to see clearly when deciding whether to regulate the person that just paid near your entire salary in one bitcoin transaction. #TwitchStopGambling110971026It does strike me as weird that @Twitch staff are in Trainwreckstv's chat and accepting $50,000 in crypto from him.It must be hard to see clearly when deciding whether to regulate the person that just paid near your entire salary in one bitcoin transaction. #TwitchStopGambling https://t.co/1fv9q30oUC Notably, Ostonox has been making edited videos about the current drama surrounding xQc and Train, who have defended the act of playing slots and other gambling games on stream in the aftermath of the ItsSliker controversy.
Absolutely disgusting Former Twitch employee says the act of employees accepting money from TrainwrecksTV is completely unethical
Until January 2022, djWHEAT was one of the longest-standing employees of Twitch. As a member of the founding team, it is safe to say that he has some insight into the industry. Pepegafish and Rellim were the two employees who could be seen in the video accepting large amounts of money from the streamer. djWheat tore into the practice, calling it a clear violation of the Amazon Business Conduct & Ethics Policy. Importantly, he didn't blame TrainwrecksTV who was allegedly seen giving out approximately $80K to the two staffers. djWHEAT@djWHEATSpeaking as a former Twitch staff, not only is this absolutely disgusting, but it is 100% in violation of Amazon Business Conduct & Ethics Policy.
