xQc encourages community to subscribe and donate to smaller streamers

xQc talked about his future goals for his community and encouraged viewers to subscribe and donate to smaller streamers during yesterday’s broadcast.

“I want to do more to give things to talk about. We can do things like give gifts and perform for people to win money,” said Twitch star. “There was a time when all my revenue and all the money the stream made was from people’s contributions like subscriptions, donations, and bits.”

xQc has made it clear that his earnings have changed dramatically since his early days of streaming. “These days, it’s not even closed anymore,” he said. “The money comes mostly from companies and other parties without having to converse.”

An October payment leak on Twitch shows xQc as the highest earner with $8,454,427.17 from donations, bits, and ads over a two-year period alone. With other sponsors like G-Fuel, he is said to earn significantly more from direct payments from companies.

“I always appreciate subscribing, but if you watch any of the other smaller streamers you should subscribe to these or prioritize the smaller streamers,” encouraged xQc . “Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate you guys signing up and being here with emojis. That’s the most important thing to me, that everyone is being supported in the chat, that everyone is having a good time. I will always appreciate those who subscribe. ”

xQc isn’t the first major streamer to encourage their audiences to contribute elsewhere in the streaming community. Pokimane notably removed its donate button, while others have set donation limits as low as $5.00. While pushing viewers to donate to other streamers and help grow the streaming industry, xQc made it clear that he’s still thankful for all the support and donations that have built his stream for Up to this point.
