For the past few weeks, the Twitch news hasn’t been very glorious. The end of 70/30 has enraged many streamers, and Amazon’s platform decisions have greatly divided the community. To bring a little positivity into this mixed atmosphere, here is some good news that brings with it its share of emotions.
Kai Cenat breaks a new record!
A content creator for more than four years, Kai Cenat has made a name for himself among the most famous English-speaking streamers on the Amazon platform. Not long ago, he had a phenomenal hype, encouraging his community to help him break a new record by having as many Twitch subs as possible. Pushed by his fans, he exceeded the bar of 80,000 paid subs on September 24th.
With this monumental figure, he broke the record for streamer with the most Twitch subs in his country, United States. Only three days later, Kai Cenat reached a new milestone by obtaining the title of second Twitch streamer with the most subs in the world with… over 90,000 subs!
