Thank you for the continuous hard work

Cs lotto! Still feel like Tmartn and the other guy didn’t pay for their crimes and got away with it.

Squirm

I’m 21 now but I used to play csgo way before I was 18 and I spent $50 on cases and somehow won a knife( Doppler gut knife) then I gambled it away on one of those sites and walked away with only a $8 skin

Alexandru Tudorica

That being said, I miss a good guru chair/throne ranking/tier list. If you know you know.

Real journalism takes time. Take your time, we are not going anywhere :) If it takes a year, it takes a year !

Steffen Spear

Hope you've seen People Make Game's video on CS:GO skin gambling! Looking forward to this!

K Marie

Take all the time you need, we’ll be here! Thanks for all that you do :)

Kimberly Kenyon

More time you take on your investigation the more through it will be, the fact you are talking about what you’re doing make it clear to us you aren’t ghosting us

K Marie

Also huge thanks for the McKinley Dixon recommendation on the Q+A, Beloved Paradise Jazz has been on repeat

Ginny Milling

Ooo I'm very excited for the Valve/Steam investigations!!!

Faelyn Cypher

Looking forward to content...and my Coffeezilla shirt, which should be in my hands later this week. Keep on pressing, keep on working, you're making a difference.

Gary Tonge

In the future, no one will care how long something took to create. They will care about its quality, though. Take your time! PS: just got my shirts - they are awesome!

FUNNZO

I guess you could say that the conversation around Valve enabling children to gamble is really going to pick up... Steam. Exceptional and hilarious puns aside, I'm glad you're going after this one. Way too many stories out there of kids carrying gambling addictions in to adulthood because of the Steam Market. I still can't believe all you've managed to achieve after being homeless for 2 hours all those years ago. Keep it up, man.

Liz Ottesen

super excited for the new videos! you’re doing an amazing job. take your time, you make great content

I really like valve, but their policy on inventory/market items is just awful. I was once a very passionate DOTA 2 player. I had premium and limited edition items in my inventory. I was also trading things I didn't use. One day I got contacted by those scam accounts and was offered a trade. Now while I was partially to blame to accept a trade link, these apis for trade should be more strict since you are dealing with valuable items. So I got a large portion of those premium and limited items stolen from me (something like €3000 worth at that time) and when I contacted valve, they were like "yeah, we can't reverse that, because duplicating or giving you back those items (which might be already in possession of another player would impact the item economy. You should be more diligent next time". The nerve of these..... they prioritized defending the scammers. After that reply, I immediately traded off the rest of my inventory for €0.01 each (losing something like another €2000 in the process), deleted the game and have never played it since. Just to make a statement on what I think about their "economy". In hindsight, this was one of the good things that happened to me as I was spending way too much time playing that game. At least I got a silver lining there.

Thanks for the update, keep your head down doing what you do, we'll be here when you surface.

Michael Gene Sullivan

Just keep doing what you are doing. The News corporations - which are increasingly tech corporations - have always and will always stay away from any stories that will cost their owners money. The News is full of hollow, expensive suits rather than the muckrakers we need, and that's why what you do is so very important.

Rox

Ough this investigation is sure to kick the hornet's nest with a certain class of terminally-online players-of-games. It's worthwhile to cover though, so hang in there Coffee!

Greg

Just received my merch and I wasn’t sure if I’d like the design but it truly is an awesome T-shirt design and great quality as well. Look forward to future videos!

angelfacepeanut

Can't imagine what it's like to be balancing all of these massive investigations while also riguring out how to handle a lawsuit. You're an absolute real one Stephen, can't wait to see what you've been cooking up behind the scenes whenever you decide it's ready!

caine bergelin

I know Richard Lewis has done alot of reporting on the issues of csgo , perhaps speak to him , would love to se a collab :)

Jessica Jeffery

What's going on with the Coffeezilla movie? The first episode was so good!

Scott Villarreal

Hey Stephen! Long time, no see. 😉 I'm just now catching up on EVERYTHING Coffeezilla, as the Youtube algorithm has only now blessed me with your presence. I wish I could have purchased shirts while they were on sale but I'm here to support you however I can. You do incredible work and I can't wait to see what else you've got in store.

Matt Goldsbrough

Take as much time as you need, we are all behind you!

Taylor

Counter Strike/Steam money laundering is really interesting to me-- because Valve has acknowledged that a lot of these game assets are used primarily not for gaming.

A Cat Named M

Will be interested to see where World Liberty Financial goes.

Daniel Young

My shirts got delivered. They are dope

Jack

Ha. I remember being 16 and watching another kid back in 2016 gamble like 500$ worth of skins AND lose. I can't believe this ever legal

Manuel Cards

Just got my t-shirt. Love it.

Fireztonez - EpixCraft-Online

I'm very excited about the CS:GO and Steam enabling children to gamble, plus money laundering will be an awesome video, I can't wait to see it! But on the other hand, there is chances that Steam reply badly to it and decide to file a lawsuit. Sure Valve is far from being one of the most aggressive company in term of lawsuits, but it is really big claims and Valve already managed to get few court case dismissed about the gambling problem. Now adding to that the Money Laundering accusation, Ouch! In any case, if this is really happening, it have to be investigated and it really should be stopped. I really really hope for you that they won't file a lawsuit against you, you already have more than enough with Logan Paul.

WaterWoman

Glad to see you here. Can’t wait to see what you have going. Hang in there!

Dae Tahn

I don't know how much of a story there is as of yet, but rosanna pansino has been doing a dive into mr beast and she's brought up a lot of allegations including him illegally gambling, participating in pump and dumps along with logal paul, refinable, xcad, among other things- it might be interesting to dive further into it as more comes out!

Kevin Larkin

You make good money though? I make money from FB performance bonus program but really need to get YT up and running. Gladly joined this so I could support you without buying merch

noa

what is going on with logan pauls suing you?

Jumure

Zilla! Pump the stock! (Not literally there is no stock)

WaterWoman

Your investigations are so worth the wait

MARLOW

we always want our dose of zilla !!!!!

Michael Copley

Doing an amazing job. I truly wish there were more people like you. As someone leading an investigation into Steve Wozniaks co-founded crypto which appears a pump and dump construct to enrich two anonymous entities that controlled the entire supply at “launch” before dumping $300m of tokens in the first year to unsuspecting retail token holders - all I can say is it’s unbelievably difficult finding investigators like yourself or ZachXBT so I really wish you might consider setting up a wider scale company, or perhaps creating a paid course for how to investigate such scams and how to start legal proceedings across multiple jurisdictions while navigating bogus defamation claims to try silence. Chain analysis is another aspect I would really like to be educated on. There’s overwhelming evidence of $20-$70m of team held tokens being transferred out of wallets outside of any vesting schedule which the team refuse to answer, and now they seemingly try to bury the project. Many other aspects also such as claiming 40+ employees when zero are on the financial reports, Steve Wozniak having informed token holders that he sees tokens as shares of stock when in reality Efforce invested the funds raised into investments for their own profit not to be shared with token holders, hundreds of lies about private investors, investor price etc, and involvement in a Chinese Ponzi scheme which key Efforce management were supporting with private events. Where do you start? Honestly there’s a huge market you could tap into and the benefit to the crypto community on a whole would be huge!
