Twitch star xQc, with approximately twelve million followers, is one of the more popular users on the game streaming platform.
However, he is leaving Twitch as he has signed a $100 million contract with the competing platform Kick. Undoubtedly, it’s a substantial amount of money, and it remains to be seen whether Kick will see a return on their investment or not.
Several Twitch competitors have previously attempted to attract popular streamers with large sums of money, but it has not been particularly successful. Kick had a peak of only 345,000 viewers a few weeks ago.
