Who is N3on?
N3on started on YouTube in October 2016 with NBA 2K videos, when he was 11 or 12 depending on the source. He announced a move to Kick in February 2023. In October 2024, during a 24-hour-a-day marathon, he logged more than 21 million hours watched, the most of any American streamer that month and a figure reported alongside unresolved viewbotting claims.
He left for Twitch in July 2025 and returned to Kick in early 2026. Outside streaming he signed with the record label EMPIRE and announced an album with producer Hit-Boy. His real name is unsettled: The National and Wikipedia use Mikyle Rafiq, while Dexerto, XXL and win.gg use Rangesh Mutama.

N3on’s gambling streams
His gambling runs as its own stream, usually about an hour long, with the sponsor’s name and an 18+ label in the title. In late September and early October 2026 he did this almost daily. Most of those sessions averaged 15,000 to 20,000 viewers, against 26,000 to 54,000 for his IRL streams in the same weeks.
He plays slots and live blackjack. We could not find a reliably sourced slot win or loss for him: no report gives a date, game, bet and amount together. His only documented gambling result is at the poker table. In September 2026 he won the Celebrity Poker Tour Invitational XIII in Las Vegas for $15,000, and PokerNews says he also won a seat in a $26,000 event.
Which casino does N3on play at?
As of October 2026 his gambling streams are sponsored by Jack.com, which we have not reviewed. He has had three casino relationships in about a year:
- Motherland, September 2025: he was announced as partner and co-owner of the crypto casino founded by Iggy Azalea. His stake was not disclosed. CasinoBeats reported that the site held an Anjouan licence and was not licensed in the United States.
- Gamdom, March 2026: a press release said Gamdom had acquired Motherland and signed him to a long-term ambassador agreement. The price and his fee were not disclosed, and it is unclear whether he kept any equity. Our Gamdom review covers that casino.
- Jack.com, August 2026: GamblingNews reported an ambassador deal aimed at the brand’s expansion, with no value or length given. A leaderboard under his code pays out $25,000 a month to the players who wager most.
Whether the Gamdom deal still runs alongside Jack.com is not clear. A claim from 2023 that Kick itself signed him for $20 million came from a fan account and was never confirmed.
Controversies and bans
- Kick ban, 14 March 2024: Kick gave no public reason. Outlets including GINX and HotNewHipHop reported that it followed a livestreamed call in which he threatened to dox and sexually assault a minor. He posted an apology video and was allowed back.
- Kick ban, 29 April 2024: the ban came shortly after a stream in which a car he was a passenger in collided with another vehicle in New York and drove off, according to Dexerto. Again Kick gave no reason.
- Kick ban, 19 October 2024: issued during his marathon. Dexerto said it was believed to be linked to a guest’s altercation.
- Viewbotting claim, September 2024: an unnamed Kick staff member was quoted as saying N3on had been botting his viewer numbers. He denied it.
- Dubai, April 2024: he was arrested, or detained according to some outlets, and later released. By his own account he had filmed a police officer. No official statement or charge was reported.
- Surrey, April 2026: a crowd around him nearly halted a Vaisakhi parade in Canada. Police asked him to move, and he left and apologised.
Some caution is needed with incidents shown on his streams. He has acknowledged that some of his earlier stunts were scripted, and an alleged arrest on stream in Chicago in March 2026 was not confirmed: no charges were reported, and his side said the officers were private security.
N3on net worth and earnings
Celebrity Net Worth estimates $5 million, and a poker news site puts it at $5 million to $10 million. Both are estimates. Separately, he has said on stream that his best month brought in more than $1 million. On the spending side, documents his team shared with Business Insider showed $1.4 million paid to 303 clippers over five weeks to spread his content, as reported by Dexerto.
