Valorant is a fairly fresh addition to the FPS games world. Since its release, fans were instantly mesmerized by how much this Riot Games title was offering. This game had a touch of FPS titles like Counter-Strike but every character had their own insane power-up. The community this game has built in such a short time is commendable.

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.

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”.

This chart becoming public has caused outrage in the community. Fans have started demanding actions against the people on the Discord server. Many are even asking to find Valorant accounts of these mischievous elements and ban them. Another star showing dismay over this debacle was G2 pro player ShahZaM.
