Twitch’s Bleed Purple Statue awards revealed: Streamer Achievement Program explained
Twitchhas announced the introduction of a Streamer Achievement Program, rewarding top performers with ‘Bleed Purple Statues’.
DuringTwitchCon Rotterdam 2024, the live-streaming platform revealed what “new features, programs, and experiences” users could expect to see on the horizon.
To “create more ways for people to come together”,Twitch announced a range of changes, from redesigning the mobile app to customizing Power-ups.
However, one addition in particular may be of interest to the platform’s most popular streamers – a new achievement program that rewards those drawing in the most (and longest) views.
Here is everything to know about the new Streamer Achievement Program.

What is the Streamer Achievement Program?
Unlike YouTube’s current system, Twitch’s focus within its achievement program will be on viewership numbers rather than followers.
Depending on the number of hours users have watched a particular streamer, that creator may now be entitled to receive a Bleed Purple Statue as a way for Twitch to recognize “streamers who have dedicated their careers to building a community.”

The achievement program is meant for streamers who have hit viewership milestones “most can only dream of”, meaning anyone looking to earn Twitch’s “special memento” will need to rack up some staggering numbers.
There are three tiers of Bleed Purple Statues that streamers can reach, each signifying a different level of achievement. They are as follows:
