An American streamer and social media star named Adin Ross was one of the big winners in the 2024 U.S. presidential election. He won $1.6 million by betting on Donald Trump to win.
Adin Ross wrote on his social media pages that he had bet $1 million on the Republican candidate before the election. The win comes after Trump beat Kamala Harris, the current vice president, in the race for president.
At age 78, Trump is the oldest person ever to be chosen President of the United States. This is a historic event.
Ross openly backed Trump in a live-streamed interview with him just a few weeks before the election. The interview was watched by a lot of people.
Many people have talked about Ross’s bet and win on social media, with friends and followers commenting on both the risk he took and the amazing result.
Ross became famous all over the world in the last ten years thanks to his Twitch streams. In 2023, he was banned from the site for good. He now fronts Kick, which makes him one of the most-watched stars on the site.
In August, he went to see Trump at his property in Florida called Mar-a-Lago and went live on Kick with the former The Apprentice host.
During the visit, Trump was given a Tesla Cybertruck that was wrapped in a famous picture of the 45th President seconds after he was tried to be killed in July. On top of everything else, Ross gave Trump a Rolex watch.
In response to the Cybertruck, Trump said, “Wow,” referring to Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla. That’s an Elon. That’s very pretty. What an amazing thing it is.
Ross told people on X (used to be Twitter) that he had made $660,000 on the $1 million bet about the 2024 election results. That’s about £513,000.
