>>26081680This feels like a 90s .com start off with a crazy huge initial IPO and get tons of investment then well there's no product there.
Consider this scenario.
Salome's forced to take long hiatus due to throat issues and/or her growth slows (or worse stagnates) and the next generation Niji is mediocre with no star in it.
What does the stock futures look like? They're banking on infinite growth but most investors don't realize just how crazy a gamble investing in new streamers are.
This isn't like Red Bull sponsoring well established streamers or something as an advertising push. Niji's now gambling on infinite growth and well The House always wins as there's only so many "Sure thing" talents and it's been snatched up or deadset on being an indie.
Thus you start rolling the dice more and more and relying on nepotism hires which can find hidden gems (HoloGamers snagging Korone) or mediocre/duds (Council and Sana) and that's not something investors like.
