Stake and Kick Founders Enter Forbes Billionaires List

What everyone has long guessed is now official: the founders of the Stake crypto casino and the Kick streaming platform, Ed Craven and Bijan Tehrani, have entered the Forbes list of billionaires for the first time, each with a fortune of $2.8 billion.

And this is not just a success story – it is a signal. Gambling platforms and streaming on the brink are becoming the new oil, and "games of luck" are becoming a business worth billions.

Who else from the industry is on the Forbes list:

• Miriam Adelson (Las Vegas Sands) – $32.1 billion
• Johann Graf (Novomatic) – $9.9 billion
• Karel Komárek (Allwyn) — $9.4 billion
• Denise Coates (Bet365) — $7.3 billion
• Teddy Sagi (Playtech) — $7,1 billion

And what is especially curious here: only Stake and Kick have the youngest and most "viral" presentation. They have built into streaming, influencers, Twitch, and TikTok clones. Their content is aggressively reaching young people. And now they are billionaires. With real power.

Unfortunately, all this again leads to the same idea: casino content is no longer just somewhere nearby – it is getting closer, it is already trending, it is on the screen of teenagers. And if earlier the word "casino" was associated with Las Vegas, now it is associated with bright streams, quick wins, and endless clips on the topic of "I raised $10,000 in 3 minutes."
