twitch leaks

An anonymous hacker claimed to have leaked the entirety of Twitch. He posted a link to 125GB of the source code and the payout information of the top 10,000 streamers on 4chan, saying that he intended to “foster more disruption and competition in the online video streaming space” because “their community is a disgusting toxic cesspool”. These files are public and available for anyone to download. Various sources from Twitch and streamers have confirmed that the leak was real. How much do the top Twitch streamers make? While there is a lot of data leaked, including an unreleased Steam competitor, codenamed Vapor, from Amazon Game Studios, most people are drawn towards the earning of streamers on Twitch.
