Forsen "Stealing Okayeg From xQc"

Okayeg is a picture of a crudely drawn Pepe the Frog smiling. It is most commonly used as a reaction image macro in Twitch chats and 4chan. The exact origin and meaning of this image is unknown, but it has recently become a meme in xQc's chat and possibly turned into an NFT owned by the Canadian streamer.

FrankerFaceZ (or FFZ for short) is a third party app that enables users to post and see images on Twitch chat. You can post pictures and reactions onto chat by inputting keywords. FFZ is available on both Chrome and Firefox.

Users can upload their own images to use in Twitch chat using FFZ, which can help retain a streamer's audience. Check out our guide to what the best emotes are.

Forsen has been accused by many of xQc's fans of stealing the Okayeg NFT. He may have possibly duplicated the NFT and added it to his own Twitch channel, or he could have used the meme in his own channel when he is not the owner of the NFT meme.

This is not the first time the Swede has been accused of stealing from xQc. He was previously known for "stealing xQc's memes" or using internet memes that have originated in xQc's Twitch channel:

• Batchest
• Pepelaugh
• He does not know
• pepega
• omegalul
• zulu

One Twitter user has found out that Forsen stole this new NFT from xQc:

When are bajs [Forsen fans] going to stop copying juicer [xQc fans] emotes 😴😴😴😴

This drama between both streamers still continues, and fans are concerned about the situation. However, Forsen has yet to mention anything related to this drama or incident.

There are a few reasons for possibly copying xQc’s NFT. There is an established market for meme NFTs/images. As such, streamers often create unique image memes for their channels. Forsen may have copied xQc’s stream art as a way of strengthening his brand and showcasing his personality to viewers. This will likely increase the number of impressions and views that Forsen’s stream gets. In doing so, he will also be able to increase his revenue and make more money from ad revenue and subscriptions.

As we’ve explored, the Okayeg NFT has become a meme. It’s also become synonymous with xQc as he has been using it excluseively. However, Forsen is now using the same image as xQc's. This means that Forsen’s image has become synonymous with xQc. It’s an interesting transition given that xQc is already a streamer who has a strong and popular personality online. This transition may also mark a shift in Forsen’s strategy to engage with his viewers. While the Okayeg NFT is silly and fun, it doesn’t really reflect Forsen’s personality.

Despite Forsen's lack of attention to this issue, people have been outraged at his actions. It is currently unknown whether or not Forsen will receive some sort of punishment, such as a ban from Twitch. What is most likely to happen is that Forsen will remove the Okayeg meme NFT from this chatroom and recognize xQc as the sole owner of Okayeg.
