A Twitch data leak has revealed the supposed earnings of its top streamers.
As previously reported, an anonymous hacker has published a torrent on 4chan that includes the Twitch source code and streamer payout reports.
The latter has since been extracted and shared on Twitter, including the top 100 highest-paid Twitch streamers from August 2019 until October 2021, as well as more recent monthly earnings.
It's no surprise that streamers earn a sizeable sum through the platform, but some may be surprised at just how high these numbers are.

Sony and Microsoft may have turned their backs on older hardware, but Nintendo's approach with Wii U is refreshingly different. While the new console is capable of running current-gen HD titles, its technical underpinnings are designed in order to fully accommodate hardware backwards compatibility with the vintage 2006 Wii. Any and all Wii titles and peripherals run with the new hardware. Sadly though it's not all good news - because in our testing we found a number of display-related issues that may might persuade die-hard purists to keep hold of their existing consoles.
