As Adin Ross reported, Kick plans to introduce a new feature called "Kick Currency" that will allow viewers to earn real money by watching their favorite streamers…
For many years, competitors like YouTube and Facebook Gaming have tried to challenge Twitch's dominance in live streaming. However, none have managed to succeed. But now, Kick has a real chance to make it in this field.
Currently, Kick has shifted its focus from heavy spending to a drive for profitability. As part of its new strategy, it plans to let viewers earn through "Kick Currency."
One of Kick’s leading streamers, Adin Ross, hinted at the platform's innovations, stating that Kick wants to launch its own currency. Essentially, viewers will be able to earn money by watching streams, similar to how Bits work, which can be cashed out.
Notice, that not everyone will earn just by watching. But streamers can distribute "Kick Currency," which viewers can then cash out.
Well, this is exciting news! It’s worth noting that Twitch has long offered Bits, allowing fans to buy them and use them in chat to support streamers.
It seems that Kick is following in their footsteps with a similar approach but with a twist. The platform rewards viewers, not just supports their favorite streamers.
When will this be implemented? So far, there are no confirmed launch dates for "Kick Currency." But the important thing is that a step in this direction has already been taken.
P.S. So it’s no surprise that Kick's popularity continues to grow, especially among creators looking for fewer restrictions. Essentially, this platform offers unique opportunities for different types of users…
