Problem<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"4223\" data-end=\"4353\">Rollbit is one of the largest crypto-gambling brands pushed aggressively through influencers and streamers.<br data-start=\"4330\" data-end=\"4333\">But the platform is:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li data-start=\"4357\" data-end=\"4376\" class=\"article-list-pink__item\">banned on Twitch,<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4357\" data-end=\"4376\" class=\"article-list-pink__item\">banned on YouTube,<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4357\" data-end=\"4376\" class=\"article-list-pink__item\">capable of triggering account enforcement if its logo or ads appear on stream.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"4482\" data-end=\"4551\">The official Major broadcast will likely feature Rollbit branding in:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li data-start=\"4482\" data-end=\"4551\" class=\"article-list-pink__item\">HUD,<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4482\" data-end=\"4551\" class=\"article-list-pink__item\">pause screens,<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4482\" data-end=\"4551\" class=\"article-list-pink__item\">intermissions,<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4482\" data-end=\"4551\" class=\"article-list-pink__item\">stage graphics,<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4482\" data-end=\"4551\" class=\"article-list-pink__item\">ad segments.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"4635\" data-end=\"4707\">Meaning: co-streaming the official broadcast = risk of getting banned. This is why Twitch is pushing GOTV-only co-streams with no branding.<\/p>\n<h3>How Did This Happen?<\/h3>\n<p>The community suspects:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">StarLadder signed the Rollbit deal assuming Kick exclusivity,<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Valve blocked the exclusivity at the last moment,<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">now the event is fully branded by a sponsor banned on the world\u2019s main streaming platforms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Current Situation: Complete Silence<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">StarLadder \u2014 silent<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Valve \u2014 silent<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Twitch \u2014 no explanation<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Kick \u2014 silent<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Rollbit \u2014 silent<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Full uncertainty ahead of the Major.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"article__content grid-cards-col xl-w-100\">\n    <p class=\"article-h3\">read more<\/p>\n    <div class=\"grid-1 gap-12 mb-12 load-parent xl-w-100\">\n        <div class=\"type3 y-red-dif hover-card card-more\">\n        <a class=\"type3__left up-to-card hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/starladder-budapest-major-2025-top-pickem-predictions\">\n        <div class=\"bg-bottom-abs-short\"> <\/div>\n        <picture class=\"picture object-fit-cover\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"picture__img object-fit-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/481019dc03956d06ffa5bcec7df9dca6.png.webp\" alt=\"Best Community Pick\u2019Ems Predictions Ahead of the StarLadder Budapest Major 2025\">\n        <\/picture>\n    <\/a>\n        <div class=\"type3__right main-structure p-20\">\n        <div class=\"type3__top\">\n            <a class=\"type3__title title-24 hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/starladder-budapest-major-2025-top-pickem-predictions\">Best Community Pick\u2019Ems Predictions Ahead of the StarLadder Budapest Major 2025<\/a>\n            <a class=\"go-arrow hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/starladder-budapest-major-2025-top-pickem-predictions\">\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__left go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779385017#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__center go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779385017#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__right go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779385017#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/a><\/div>\n        <div class=\"type3__bottom blue-labels mt-auto\">\n            <div class=\"blue-label disabled\">Dec 09 2025<\/div>\n            <a class=\"blue-label\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\">News<\/a>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Possible Scenarios<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Valve forces the removal of Rollbit branding.<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Twitch grants a special exception (unlikely).<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">The event is watched mostly on Kick.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Budapest Major 2025 is already the biggest drama of the year.
