Chapter 1: Who is Adin Ross and why is he influential on the internet?
Yo, we got Aiden Ross, my boy. We go back a little bit. One of the most fucking influential people on the fucking internet. No matter what you do, you're always just like fucking here to stay now.
One of the first streams I did when I was in LA house was you. You pulled up on me. I remember, yeah. You remember that?
Yeah.
That's when you were just like popping off, starting to go crazy, right? Yeah, bro. Yeah.
Yeah, that's when you were popping off, living with banks in the cloud house.
Yeah, the cloud house. I love that. That was like the second cloud house. Yeah, it was the part two.
exactly you know it's crazy because i was like before even i think i think after stream we just went outside we were just shotgunning just the fuck of it and it was just so cool how you pulled up on me because i know you were part of the first one the first one which is on weed lake right yeah weed lake it's crazy how much banks has done for people right dude thanks like i wouldn't be i would say this all the time but we wouldn't be anywhere without banks for sure same with me his endorsement like putting us on in la the amount of people he connected us with yeah and he did it all for free too right never tried to take a piece of us right nothing
Right. Yeah. Cause when I was, uh, when, when I was, when I moved to LA and it's when phase was obviously going through what they were going through, there were so many times where I could have joined phase. And I asked banks about, he's like, yo, like Aiden, like, don't do it. Don't do it. Don't do it. He looked out for me.
He put me, you know, his genuine don't join phase because that's when phase was doing some really bad shady stuff and he didn't have control of it. Now they're killing it, which is great. He took it back over and we can talk about that in a bit. But like my thing was, it was like Banks has always been the genuine guy where it's like, yo, I got you. You're my boy. You're my brother.

Chapter 2: How did Adin Ross start his streaming career and who helped him?
We got an amazing pod coming up with Aiden Ross right now, I love catching up with this guy. Before we get into it, if you have not tried out the PrizePix app, you gotta download it right now. You guys know me, I love firing on sports, and I've tried every single app. In my opinion, PrizePix is by far the best. Instead of choosing teams, you're choosing individual players.
Each player has a set projection, and you either go more or less than that set projection. So, if you know what players are going to perform on what nights, this is a no-brainer. If you're smart with sports, download the PrizePix app. If you've never tried it, you can use code NELK. And if you put in $5, you get $50 free. No strings attached. Take advantage of that code.
PrizePix is available in so many states. It's available in Cali. It's available in Texas. Football's over, but big firing's coming up. March Madness is right around the corner. You know we're going to be firing big on PrizePix. I post my picks all the time on my stories, so stay tuned for those. Shout out PrizePix. Best firing app on sports in the game. Download the PrizePix app. Use code NELK.
Let's get into the podcast. Business-wise with Kik, where are you at? Are you allowed to say what your deal was like, your equity? Are you still an equity partner?
Still an equity partner. And I'm actually doing more equity stuff with them when it comes to my new events I'm creating with them this year. So we're going to do a streamer awards this year. There's a streamer awards on Twitch. I'm not really sure why nobody's done anything to kind of compete against it. So we're going to do our own stream rewards.
I'm obviously doing the boxing now, the brand risk boxing, which is big. And I got a few more events coming too that I've kind of talked about. But events are going to be really, really great for streaming because it's just a well-produced event that you can kind of keep spamming in a way and you can change it up and add more people and people will just be all for it.
I think that's like the future of live streaming, just making crazy, well-produced events.
That stuff that you want to do more is more like high production shit.
Exactly. And that's like where the equity is too. It's like, if I could start a business, sorry, not a business. If I could start an event up with like, for example, Eddie, him and I are going to like a 50, 50 type of thing where we're kind of both like putting our all into it. We have certain different types of things that him and I are both putting into it, but it's like,

Chapter 3: What are Adin Ross's business ventures and future plans with Kik?
But guess what? If I come up to you in game and I kill you, you're losing everything. Damn. Yeah. We're going to make it very strict. We're to the Commie Bay server. It's going to be hard to get guns. It's going to be hard.
So how does that work? Is the coin going to be like in the actual game?
It's going to basically be valued. So let's say you have a million dollars in my GTA 6 server. You could probably cash that out for X amount of the coin, which is X amount this volume. And I don't know what chain is going to be the best at that point. We might do it on Ethereum chain. We might do it on Solana chain, Bitcoin chain, whatever.
But we'll see because we still have a couple years away, you know, from something crazy like that. I know GTA 6 is supposed to come out this year, but I think the PC version comes out in a year from the actual year. So, but we got some time, but crypto is just going to continue to get bigger. So all the time in the world is great.
Damn, that's crazy. Yeah, there's been so much. I haven't dabbled too much in GTA, honestly. I was more of a COD guy, but how big is that game going to be? There's so much hype on it.
The game is going to be huge, bro. I wish I knew more about it. I know that it's going to be a lot of crypto stuff involved. I know there's going to be a lot of people that are dropping certain things in the game. For example... Certain podcasts, exclusivity podcasts, exclusivity music with rappers and podcasters, et cetera. And I know it's going to be crypto rent. A lot of it.
I know crypto is going to be in the game for sure. It's just funny to Miami. Miami is known as the crypto city in America right now. True. So we're going to, we're going to see, man, we're going to see. And the cool thing is we have, I think this year we're going to know a lot. But what I will tell you is this, right now you could have like a max slot on a GTA 5, 5M server of 200 to 400 people.
I think GTA 6 is gonna hit new accolades. Imagine there's like, you're in the city of Miami and instead of like 200 people, you could have like a thousand people. You know, maybe it's possible. I don't know. We gotta wait to see. But one thing I do know is I know how to run a server very well. I ran my SSB world pretty well back a few years back.
So it's gonna be exciting to see what happens this time. That's crazy. Yeah, yeah.
