Trainwreck is well known for gambling millions on the streaming service Kick, which itself has a close association with Stake.  In fact, Stake's founders started Kick.

He claims to regularly engage in arguments with co-founder Eddie Craven.

Oh, and Trainwreck himself is a co-founder of Kick.

Why is Trainwreck Claiming Stake.com is a "Scam"?

It wasn't immediately known why Trainwreck believes Stake.com is a "scam", other than that he keeps losing on the site apparently.

From Dextero:

During xQc’s Kick stream on March 2, he asked the gambling streamer: “Dude, I get unreasonably upset about my losses with gambling sometimes, I’ll be honest with you. Did you used to get that?”

Trainwreck answered: “Of course brother, I have one of the worst RTPs in the entire industry. Of course, I have gone on rants that are terrible against Stake and Eddie has been very pissed, me and Eddie have gotten into many arguments.

“It’s just a f**cking scam bro, like, like do you know how annoying it is, sitting there spinning all day? Right, being the reason they are where they are and then watching the absolute fraud motherf**ckers sitting there max winning every day, pretending it’s all real.”

Trainwreck ended by stating: “Of course I get f**cking angry, of course I get angry. Any industry where the frauds get to appear or look like they’re winning is f**cking disgusting to me. So of course I get angry and the fact Stake is complacent in that makes me even angrier.”
