Reactions from the public

The online community reacted to xQc’s loss with a mix of sympathy and schadenfreude.

Many viewers felt little pity for the streamer, with some suggesting that he could have used that money for charitable donations instead of betting.

One user said: You could’ve donated that $700,000 to a charity instead of burning it.

Others found the situation amusing and used it as an opportunity to critique the risks associated with high-stakes betting.

That was stake’s money anyway, the third user commented.

So many people saying they’re voting Kamala secretly voted for the orange man, that’s a fact. Even celebrities, another wrote.

He deserves it for promoting gambling to his followers tbh, another said.

Betting on her was such a bad idea, someone wrote.
