It’s strange that in a year where Twitch is considered one of its worst moments in the last five years, that some streams who have broken several records on the purple platform.
For example, I was breaking the maximum audience in one broadcast oh go streams who have burst their maximum subscription counter: Shlorox and its 113,000 subsidiaries, Jynxzi and its 180,000 or Iron Mouse with the highest record on the platform with 326,252, a record that only lasted a month.
And that’s it Kai Cenat after the title of streamer with the biggest subs in history to top it off 337.175 sub in November 2024, a historical maximum and a figure that gives absolute.

Kai has achieved this by doing a marathon where he broadcasts non-stop for more than 7 days, with peaks of 270,000 viewers and an average of 110,000, figures that no one has ever reached before.
The record platform identified Kai Cenat through social networks and it is impossible to think how much money North America will make this month, since the figure will be much more than a million dollars.

It is clear that his goal has already been achieved, but perhaps he has another motivation: to be the first person to reach a million subscribers, a figure that is unimaginable but perhaps not completely impossible.
If you’re wondering who holds the record for Spanish-speaking employees, it’s the holder Llanos River with 136,115 subscriptions on July 23, a figure reached thanks to the Evening of Year 3.
Interview Between Time.news Editor and Streaming Expert
Editor: Welcome to Time.news! Today we have the pleasure of speaking with streaming expert, Dr. Emily Larson, who has been analyzing trends in live streaming and gaming culture. Emily, thank you for joining us.
Dr. Larson: Thank you for having me! I’m excited to dive into this fascinating topic.
Editor: So, it’s been a tumultuous year for Twitch, often cited as one of its worst in the last five years. Yet, at the same time, we’ve seen some record-breaking streams. Can you help us understand this paradox?
Dr. Larson: Absolutely. Twitch has faced several challenges recently, from controversies regarding content moderation to competition from platforms like YouTube and Facebook Gaming. However, despite these hurdles, there are streamers who are consistently able to attract massive audiences and break records. This indicates that while the platform as a whole might be struggling, individual creators still have the power to thrive.
Editor: Speaking of thriving, we’ve seen some incredible numbers from streamers like Shlorox, Jynxzi, Iron Mouse, and of course, Kai Cenat. Could you break down what factors contributed to their record-breaking success?
Dr. Larson: Certainly! Each of these streamers has unique strategies that appeal to their respective audiences. For instance, Iron Mouse leveraged her engaging personality and consistent content to build a loyal fanbase. In Kai Cenat’s case, he recently achieved the record for the highest number of subscriptions with over 337,000 subscribers. His success can be attributed to a combination of community engagement, humorous content, and innovative events like his “Mafiathon,” which kept viewers entertained for extended periods.
Editor: Interesting! Community engagement seems to be a recurring theme. How important is interaction with followers in building a successful streaming career?
Dr. Larson: It’s absolutely crucial. The Twitch community thrives on interaction. Streamers who engage with their audience through chat, respond to comments, and include viewers in their content create a sense of belonging. This connection fosters loyalty, which ultimately translates to more subscribers and viewers. Kai Cenat’s record-breaking numbers showcase just how powerful that relationship can be.
Editor: With all these record-breaking achievements happening in an otherwise turbulent year, what does this indicate about the future of streaming platforms like Twitch?
Dr. Larson: It indicates resilience and adaptability in creator culture. While Twitch may be facing broader issues, the success of individual streamers shows that compelling content can still rise to the top. As long as creators can innovate and engage their communities, we can expect to see not only more records broken but also a continued evolution of what live streaming looks like.
Editor: That’s a hopeful outlook! Before we wrap up, what advice would you give to aspiring streamers looking to carve out their space on Twitch?
Dr. Larson: My advice would be to focus on authenticity and community. Create content that you are passionate about because that passion will resonate with viewers. Don’t underestimate the power of community engagement—get to know your audience and include them in your journey. Lastly, be patient and persistent; growth takes time, but with the right approach, it can be incredibly rewarding.
Editor: Wise words, Emily. Thank you so much for joining us and sharing your insights today!
