However, Twitch has recently experienced a slump in its metrics, pushing many of its streamers towards alternative platforms due to unpopular policy alterations. XQC is the latest to make this leap, XQC Secures $70m Partnership with Kick joining in a non-exclusive partnership that spans two years.
Lengyel intends to split his time between both platforms, perhaps dedicating full streaming days to each alternatively. Since this monumental announcement, Kick has seen a staggering influx of new users, recording 1 million signups within 24 hours, and breaking all prior records last month.
