>>87531434>the only way it makes sense (she aint making that much in merch or SC anymore) is if Vshojo paid her to join and she still has a contract runningOutside of SC, there are still merchs, membership + Twitch subs, sponsorships and her appearance fees on various programs. SC isn't everything and you guys just underestimate how much a popular VTuber can make.
For example, Lamy made $205k in 2023 (yes, her SC game slowed down a lot), only $15k higher than Kson did. In total, however, Lamy made somewhere between $800k and $1.5M last year (hard to narrow it down further with what she said). Going by that, is it really so hard to believe that Kson made ~$690k? Sure, Kson might get fewer merch releases, but she also gets higher merch cut (presumably, since she said she used to complain about 50:50 merch profit cut), similar stream revenue (SC / streamlab / members / subs) cut and gets to double dip on both YT and Twitch on membership & subs. $690k / year doesn't sound all that weird.
(And while I'm at it, Kson isn't a 3view, her median is still solidly 4view. One or two streams dipping below the line at a certain point doesn't make her a 3view)
