Twitch is the number one live streaming platform for gambling.
On October 18, Twitch banned four domains from sharing links or affiliate codes to gambling websites. The ban came into effect at 10 AM Pacific Time. Some users continued to stream as usual for several hours.
Twitch is still the most popular platform for gambling streaming. YouTube has seen an average of 40% increase in reach since October 18. Some of the banned websites transitioned to Dlive after the ban.
