Top 10 Best Twitch Gamers by Net Worth

While professional gaming is finally recognized as a serious and competitive sport, it has brought into the fold countless other tools such as streaming. Most notably, Twitch streaming. So, what is Twitch? It’s a live video streaming service that allows gamers to stream when playing games. It also allows you, the viewer, to interact with the gamer. Twitch was first launched in 2011, and its parent company is Amazon. The most popular category on the streaming service must be anything esports related. Let’s look at the top 10 best Twitch gamers by net worth.
