Deja vu…
He will be back when his contract is up, like they all do.
For $100M i would stream my naked ass all day long lol
I watched about 30 seconds of this guy for a Rust twitch drop before muting it. How can anyone stand him?
Kids, it’s kids that love him.
Who’s giving these kids all that money that their interests are so valuable?
More eyes = more ad views.
It’s the number that counts. All these kids subscribing for 5$ a month that their parents don’t mind giving them (5$ is pocket change these days) add up to millions.
The rival platform is “Kick” in case anyone wants to not open the article but still wants to know which it is.
Ah, i personally don’t use Twitch much so I didn’t even know what the rival was either.
Surprised Kick has that kind of walking around money.
It’s a new platform so they must be burning investor money to promote the platform by doing this. It’s working. They just need to have a plan to earn it back.
They also earn a lot from Stake, their gambling platform. $100 million probably isn’t that much for them.

thanks!
XQC is doing their first stream on Kick, and the site has been down more or less the whole time.
Holy fuck that site is a 1:1 copy of Twitch’s frontend.
Makes me wonder if that’s even legal.
Like when Microsoft “bought” Ninja for their streaming platform Mixer that closed soon after? Good for them.
competition is good when a single company has practical monopoly on an industry (twitch, streaming), but Kick is an awfully unethical company founded by people looking to cash in on getting people addicted to gambling. out of the frying pan, and straight into the fire!
