It didn't help that Runie called out a comment that said "N is for normie" right below it so anyone scrolling to find that comment would see it... Or maybe it did help
Hmm interesting, thank you for the information

So if i understand correctly the talent receives basically nothing in terms of money with a shitty currency and yet more people get access to their paywalled content? I get it if its to troll people but why do that if you genuinely care for the talent?

You got it right the first time, its a way to jew people out of non-monopoly money with as little as 1.50USD in third world funbucks
Looks like you still have to opt-in globally still. Per Google's help page on it:
Gifting a bunch of memberships or large/many superchats gets you attention from the streamer. Some people just want the attention regardless if they are actually supporting the talent in a material way or not.
A lot of people have turned on receiving gifted memberships for all channels as a default. A lot of people will pop their head into a stream, maybe make a comment or two and watch like 10 minutes, and then leave. Maybe it was a dull moment of the stream when they started watching or it just wasn't a great stream and now that person won't watch that streamer again. Youtube will probably give that viewer at most a few recommendations of that channel again if they didn't subscribe and if they don't click on those recommendations from youtube, that talent will stop being advertised to them because the algorithm prioritizes things you click on and deprioritizes stuff you don't click on.
If the channel is absolutely flooded with memberships, those randos are going to be gifted a membership and now they're getting that talent's member videos and posts in their feed. The hope is that it will convince the rando that got gifted the membership to give the talent another chance and watch some of their membership streams because "oh, the gifted membership is going to run out soon and I won't have access to this content again".
You're forcing that talent into someone's feed and then using FOMO to get them to watch the talent more and give that talent another chance to potentially get the viewer interested enough to become a regular watcher. You're advertising that streamer to 50 people for an entire month. In terms of advertising costs, ~1-2 USD for a month of advertising to 50 people is a pretty good ad campaign because it includes a level of FOMO to get them to watch the membership streams and it hits people with adblock.
Suppose it's some random 2view streamer that has had maybe dozens or hundreds of viewers drive-by, not enjoy the stream, and then never watch them again. Maybe the 2view was pretty awful at streaming when they just started out and now that they're more comfortable and found they're groove, they have to deal with the consequence that those "drive-by viewers" are now not going to be recommended to them. Someone decides to spend $10 USD to gift like 250 memberships to that 2view streamer and now all those people that did a drive-by over the past few months are getting a solid month of advertising that penetrates their adblock and tries to FOMO them into watching membership streams.

Goddamn that was nice. I love the art designs. While it may not have been animated, it at least looked nice and colorful. Everyone sounded good, too. Mumei especially stood out with those low-pitch vocals.
Edit: Bae confirmed the guest is coming and on the way now.
If this becomes common the FOMO part will die, though I have seen several comments on both Natumi's chat and on pcg of people who received an email or a YouTube notification about my member gifts, and those people tend to stay for a while watching the stream so I guess it does work as an ad lol.
Does she have any visible mods? Or did she drop the usual Phase mods after the debut?
Kronii's lines might have awakened something in me too...Goddamn that was nice. I love the art designs. While it may not have been animated, it at least looked nice and colorful. Everyone sounded good, too. Mumei especially stood out with those low-pitch vocals.

I added a part into my comment while you quoted but yeah, it is a very effective method for helping 2views. If you're some random 2view streamer, you were likely legitimately shitty at streaming at first and the "2 view scouting" viewers didn't care for your stream and wrote you off. Now that it's like 3 months later and you've found your groove with streaming, you have to deal with the fact that those dozens, if not hundreds, of drive-by viewers aren't going to receive youtube recommendations for your channel.
A $10 superchat might be nice but you could spend that $10 and buy like 250 gifted memberships with monopoly money and advertise to all those "missed connections" for a month straight. The streamer is still receiving effectively $10 but now they're being advertised to a fuck ton of people for a solid month. That could be the way that the streamer slowly pushes from 2 view to very low 3view.
Oh yeah, she sounded really good, too. Mumei threw me off so hard I didn't even remember how good Kronii sounded in this.
Bae also said she didn't even ask Mumei to sing that low, she couldn't believe it, either.
Hexa is live with the first Sonichu Saturday. I think she will be watching the documentary by GenoSamuel.
Edit:
Well @midori , you can always cover our dear friend Nolan Crush in the future. At least he doesn't sing....right? I hope not.
I still need to finish that huge mega thread on him once I've got enough booze in me to endure it all.
A members post a few days ago and now a tweet? Slow down, Gura. You're going to kill the chumbuds. They have been without content for so long that this is like trying to feed a starving man a three course dinner.
They're gonna need it. Next Gura content drop will probably be in 2 months for Holofes.
Valentine's Day is less than a month away. Cover is going to force her to do a stream for that and then she'll fuck off again. Maybe she'll try to do a few streams before Valentine's Day to make it look like she didn't just show up to shill Valentine's Day merch for the desperate losers in her fanbase. We saw recently how turbo parasocial boo bros are and there's a big overlap between boo bros and chumbuds.
