Karl wasn’t the only one who was proud of Pokimane’s achievement. Her close friend Valkyrae also tweeted her response.

Talking about Valkyrae, she is now the new co-owner of 100 Thieves alongside Courage. This was a massive step-up for the streamer who once joined the Esports organization as their first female content creator.

The journey so far

Pokimane has entered a list of elites with her investment. However, no figures were disclosed, so it is rather unclear how much of her money the streamer has invested.

Female streamers have been steadily rising in popularity and stardom over the years. It is exceptionally good to see Pokimane and Valkyrae rising in the scene.

Pokimane is the second most popular female streamer of the year. She already has over 7 million followers on Twitch and is only behind Valkyrae by a small number.
