Late on March 2, 2025, Twitch star Amouranth—real name Kaitlyn Siragusa—shocked her 6.3 million followers with frantic posts on X, claiming that armed robbers broke into her Houston home, demanding cryptocurrency.
“I’m being too robbed at gunpont,” she wrote at 11:58 PM CST, followed by:
“I believe I shot one of them they wanted crypto is what they were yelling they pulled me out of bed.”
By 12:34 AM CST, she added:
“Was at gunpoint they gave me phone and said log in with gun to my head and I tweeted because calling would be a death sentence.”
She later posted photos of police cars outside her gated Texas property, assuring followers she was “safe” but “bleeding a lot” and headed to the hospital.
The news quickly spread across social media, with @DailyLoud calling it a “violent home invasion”, while @OnepegMG marveled, “Somehow she got a firearm and shot one of them.”
UPDATE – Houston Police seeking information on the break-in per Dexerto. Developing.
Details Remain Sparse But Alarming
Amouranth alleges that three gunmen invaded her home, pistol-whipped her, and fired at her bedroom door before breaking in. She claims she returned fire, hitting one of the intruders—evidenced by his reported screams of “I got shot!”—before SWAT arrived.
-
Houston police have not yet commented, and no arrests or suspect details have emerged as of midday March 3.
-
Amouranth’s assistant told Yahoo that she is out of the hospital with injuries, her animals are safe, and security has been tightened.
-
The crypto motive aligns with her financial history—in November 2024, she flaunted holdings of $20 million in Bitcoin and $74,450 in Ethereum on X.
This incident reflects a growing trend of crypto-related robberies, where high-profile influencers are targeted for their digital wealth.
Who Is Amouranth?
At 31 years old, Kaitlyn “Amouranth” Siragusa has built a $40 million empire, making her one of the most recognizable names in streaming and online content creation.
-
Started as a cosplayer in 2015, later shifting to Twitch, where she became the most-watched female streamer by 2021.
-
Expanded beyond gaming, earning $33 million from OnlyFans by 2022, signing a Kick deal in 2023, and investing in gas stations and Wildcard Gaming in 2024.
-
Known for controversy, including five Twitch bans (often due to wardrobe slips and pushing platform rules), a 2023 AVN Award, and selling fart jars.
-
Personal struggles: In 2022, she revealed an abusive marriage, sparking widespread support and skepticism. Years of stalker incidents and a 2023 health diagnosis of ovarian failure have also shaped her public narrative.
Despite polarizing opinions, Amouranth remains a dominant force in digital media.
X Skepticism: Echoes of Past Controversies
While many fans support her, skepticism is rampant on X. Some users question the legitimacy of her claims, citing her history of high-profile drama.
In 2022, Amouranth publicly accused her husband of abuse, live-streaming a call where she alleged that he:
-
Threatened to kill her dogs
-
Controlled her finances through cryptocurrency
-
Forced her to maintain a single persona for profit
While some texts supported her claims, others doubted the timing and circumstances.
The current home invasion story has sparked similar reactions.
-
One X poster asked, “How did she tweet under gunpoint?”
-
Another noted the coincidental timing, happening the same night as a streamer sniper incident involving Valkyrae and others.
-
WIN.gg reported fan doubts, calling it a “limelight grab” and comparing it to her past stalker issues, which never escalated to this level.
That said, police presence in her photos lends credibility to the incident, and no hard evidence has debunked her claims.
What’s Next?
If true, this marks a terrifying escalation in Amouranth’s already turbulent life—between stalkers, abuse allegations, and now an armed home invasion.
Regardless of skepticism, the incident serves as a stark warning for crypto-rich streamers, as criminals increasingly target digital influencers with high publicized wealth.
