Twitch streamers, will you receive a Bleed Purple statue?
For YouTube creators, one of the surest ways to show that you’ve achieved success is to receive a YouTube Creator Award. These are physical plaques that YouTube sends to channel owners who have reached certain subscriber thresholds.
At Twitchcon Europe 2024 in Rotterdam on Saturday, Twitch announcement its own version of these physical awards: the Twitch Streamer Achievement Awards.
Prizes will be awarded as part of Twitch’s Streamer Achievement program. Unlike YouTube, which bases rewards on subscriber milestones, Twitch focuses on rewarding creators for viewership milestones.
Reward Eligibility for Twitch Streamers

Like the YouTube version of the program, there will be three different milestone levels that Twitch streamers can achieve that will reward them with three different versions of the Bleed Purple statue.
Let’s compare the two programs:
On YouTube, channels that reach 100,000 subscribers receive a Silver Creator Award. Once a channel reaches 1 million subscribers, it is eligible for the Gold Creator Award. The final award is the Diamond Creator Award, which YouTubers receive when their channel reaches 10 million subscribers. (YouTube also created a special edition that they awarded to MrBeast when his channel reached 200 million subscribers.)
To receive a Bleed Purple statuette, Twitch streamers must reach 5 million hours of watch time on their channel. If they reach 50 million hours of watch time on their channel, there is a Marble version of the award. Reaching 250 million hours of watch time on their channel earns them a Chrome version of the award.

Twitch streamer LittleBigWhale was the first to receive a live statue at Twitchcon Europe, where Twitch revealed all three versions of the award for the first time.
According to Twitch, eligible creators will receive invitations to accept their Bleed Purple statue later this summer.
