Wow, I thought the days of streamers receiving huge contracts to join a platform were over. I’m sure having xQc streaming on Kick will be beneficial, but is it really $70 million beneficial? Facebook and Youtube have both paid a ton of money to get big streamers from twitch, but I don’t feel like that moved the needle much.
Kick seems to be getting more attention from streamers moving of their own accord than Facebook or Mixer did, at least. I doubt it’ll go a lot better than Mixer in the long run, but it’s at least better for everyone on Twitch if they have competition to worry about.
