Popular streamers xQc and Hasan “HasanAbi” Piker have never seen eye to eye. The latest disagreement came when Piker said that xQc contributes negatively to society by promoting gambling to his viewers. The popular Kick content creator has a deal with gambling site Stake that he says pays him $200,000 every time he streams content from the brand.
xQc remarked that Piker makes plenty of money
xQc quickly hit back, saying that Piker talks to his fans about socialism when he doesn’t actually practice these beliefs in his actual life. xQc remarked that Piker makes plenty of money when his viewers end up losing out, as they could be making more money themselves by not following socialist beliefs:
The dispute between the two began in 2022 after xQc made a YouTube video ranking streamers. He put Piker in the “B” category, which Piker replied to by telling his rival to go “back to promoting crypto gambling to teens for multiple millions.”
Another flashpoint came in October 2025 when Piker appeared to use a shock collar on his dog. xQc made a 41-minute video about the incident and said that it was a “100% confirmed case of animal abuse.”
