'''YouTube''' is the primary arena in the online world of [[Chris]], who has occasionally called it "the YouTube". [[CWC's Sonichu Site!|His websites have gotten hacked]], [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] crashed forever, and even [[CWCki|this very wiki]] sucks balls sometimes, but YouTube is always up and operational, and, except during his "final departure from the Internet" in 2010, Chris has always produced new [[Captain's Log]] [[videos]] and reacted to the videos of his [[White knights|friends]] and [[trolls|enemies]]. From 2017 onward, Chris's YouTube presence started to dwindle as he shifted his online presence to [[Twitter]], but he still uploaded videos every now and then.
The '''Financhu Crisis''' is a term coined by users from [[Kiwi Farms]] to describe the steep decline in the Chandler family's [[Chris and money|financial management]] beginning in early [[2016]]. Signs of the Chandlers' worsening finances were made apparent by the increasing amounts of begging videos and donation requests on [[YouTube]] and [[Facebook]].


For Chris, YouTube wasn't merely a way to post videos dedicated to his alleged adoring [[fanbase]] and issue broad condemnations of trolling; it was also a communication channel. Chris has posted several videos on his YouTube channel that he apparently believed would be only viewed by the people he addressed the videos to, and that they'd view the video even when they haven't been made aware of Chris's channel. He has addressed individual trolls, individual alleged fans, [[sweetheart]]s and especially former sweethearts, journalists and TV shows, local business managers and other people within driving distance of his house. As of [[2009]], Chris is wary of email and other text-based forms of communication, having been burned by alleged sweethearts who turned out to have [[pickle]]s. Chris has also been known to search videos labeled "Chris-chan" in order to satisfy his [[ego]].

Chris, begging for money, while standing in front of more than a thousand dollars' worth of Lego sets and toys.

The Financhu Crisis is a term coined by users from Kiwi Farms to describe the steep decline in the Chandler family's financial management beginning in early 2016. Signs of the Chandlers' worsening finances were made apparent by the increasing amounts of begging videos and donation requests on YouTube and Facebook.

In June 2017, Chris began to take his Patreon account more seriously and recommenced drawing Sonichu comic pages. He has gotten several hundred dollars per month for his efforts, and payments continued until 2 August 2021, when his Patreon account was shut down. As a result, begging had temporarily subsided.
