Adin Ross claims to have lost over $10 million since the start of new economic measures

Digital influencer Adin Ross revealed that he has suffered a loss of over $10 million since former President Donald Trump imposed a new round of tariffs on foreign products.

During a recent live stream, Ross criticized the impact of the economic measures announced by Trump in early April when the former president declared the United States’ “Liberation Day” and promised to revive the national industry through increased tariffs.

Ross, known for his live streams on the Kick.com platform, had previously shown support for the former president by gifting him a gold Rolex Day-Date watch during a live stream in 2024.

However, the influencer acknowledged that Trump’s economic decisions had a severe impact on his finances. In a conversation with fellow streamer DJ Akademiks, Ross lamented the effects of the current market instability: “It’s really bad,” he said, before admitting that his losses had reached eight figures.

DJ Akademiks also expressed concern about the situation, describing Trump’s strategy as “a dangerous game of chicken” and suggesting that the former president may soon backtrack on his measures.

Despite the criticism, Ross stated he remains optimistic: “It’s bad, I’m not going to lie. But it will get better.”
