Popular Minecraft creator Dream gets trolled over a bizarre wristband
While being popular on the internet is a gift, there are times when it comes back to haunt you. One mistake costs you your lifetime, sidelining your perfect personality in society. This has been the case with popular Minecraft maestro Dream, who got trolled over his recent merch launch.

Every YouTuber has membership access for fans, as they publish some exclusive content over it. While some focus on dropping videos, short clips, and member-only videos, the others focus on releasing merch.
They reserve such things for members, allowing them to buy them off for a certain price. However, it is important to understand that these items come with extra money as users already pay a bunch for the membership.
Dream’s recent product launch can be a perfect example of this, as he released an exclusive USB wristband for his fans. However, he reserved the item for only the members for a $24.99 introductory price. So, if you’re wondering what the priced product sells, here’s what it is:
- Contents include baby pictures, some chapters from Dream’s old books, childhood emails, old gaming screenshots, pictures/memes from Dream’s camera roll, and more!
- Combining the fun of a slap bracelet with the utility of a USB Drive
- Slap USB has a unique design that fits any wrist size
4 GB of storage - Branded case with magnetic lid closure
- Manufactured and branded in the USA
It was just a matter of minutes before fans found out about this weird product as they expressed their feelings on Twitter. Here’s what they had to say.

I CANNOT believe he'd try sell this, I'm no longer a dream stan, I'm going to close the 24/7 livestream i have of the outside of his house 🙁

I'm no dream fan but this doesn't seem that bad to me, it's not the worst value.
1. its a bracelet to wear so it's merch.
2. its a flash drive, only 4gb but still, not terrible.
3. you get the pics/stories/crap that a fan would reasonable want and enjoy— Venture Communist (@vagrant_beard) September 16, 2022
Surely no one is paying 25 dollars for some random guys baby photos

This is predatory behavior. Enabling his fans to be involved deeply into his personal life, in a creepy stalker-like way.
These are mostly children he’s dealing with here.

Idk about the baby pics and emails and what not… that seems genuinely personal to me that I wouldn't want out in the wild.. but a slap bracelet that doubles as a USB just seem niche to me.

During this, a fan also pointed out his ridiculous membership prices, proving how worthless they were. Here’s what she said. She wasn’t wrong at all, as Dream was charging $16 a year for email newsletters.
In conclusion, it’s just strange how sometimes big creators think to earn money. They push out the weirdest ideas that only make sense to them.
