What did Atrioc leak?
Atrioc was playing Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout on Twitch when he accessed Discord. According to a leaked Discord communication between Valkyrae and Ludwig, Valkyrae was still determining if she should trust RFLCT's research. Several well-known streamers, including her team members, have come out against the company she co-founded.
Valkyrae mentioned a significant gift from Ulta Beauty as one of the reasons she believes in RFLCT and its capacity to preserve the skin of countless people. "Why would Ulta invest in this if they don't believe the research?" Valkyrae questioned Ludwig. She has been provided some information on RFLCT's potential to protect clients against blue light, but the company's website does not make any medical information available to the public.
Valkyrae revealed to Ludwig in Discord that Ulta Beauty contributed $4 million to the RFLCT. She also remarked that she feels RFLCT's withholding of public information harms her brand and that the research should be made public. The streamer also talked about a contract she signed for the RFLCT transaction and joked about embracing the fraudster's life, getting out of the agreement, and admitting she was incorrect.
