I think those earnings estimates are based on what a channel would make if their videos were monetized...
These days most videos aren't even eligible for monetization and most channels are too heavily censored to receive any considerable earnings from ads on their videos.
Styx does not monetize his channel (he'd have long been deleted from the platform if he attempted to), he only takes subs on SubscribeStar and other such subscriber rewards based creator platforms. I think he has merch now, and of course there are the books...
It's almost certain that the books are his biggest source of income and he should absolutely continue focusing his efforts there, as once a book is written, it works for itself... wholly passive income.
