Why shouldn't ZilverK be considered a VTuber?
Some say VRChat streamers aren't counted, but he actually rigs his model on the screen and doesn't only do VRChat. He even got 2 new models already.

And some posts keep saying converts don't count, but Nyanners and Kson are converts that count as VTubers.
ZilverK actually gained the majority of his subscribers from after he switched full-time to being a VTuber, well over 3/4ths of them. Before that, he only had 448k and was actually losing subs.
His first video as a VTuber was on October 2021.
