This incredible community is now going through troubles of its own. Some mischievous elements have started the trend of ‘Crypto throwing’ in this Riot Games title. They throw Valorant matches with prominent names to earn a crypto coin. Many streamers in the past have condemned this practice of throwing and getting money from crypto-betting sites. However, now the community has found more concrete proof that this practice has become bigger and more organized than they thought.

Crypto-betting chart revelation is met by dismay from Valorant stars

Valorant streamer PROD recently tweeted a screenshot from a Discord server. In the screenshot, a bounty board-type chart was present, with prize money for how much crypto stream snipers can get. The rules stated on the chart were the contestants to throw if the Valorant star was their team or to stream snipe them and win if on their enemy team. Streamer Kyedae shared her dismay with fans about this situation, stating this makes her sad. However, one Valorant icon not present on the list shared a funny remark on this sad situation. Looking that he was not on the list, Tarik joked, “They throw mine for free”.
