After Twitch found itself at the epicenter of a gambling scandal, the streaming giant has since doubled down on its prohibition of gambling anywhere on its platform, but the decision could be too little, too late. Despite other companies taking more of a hard line stance against gambling to protect their users, Twitch has allowed a gray area to take hold on with a history of gambling scandals from streamers getting sponsored by online casinos to the obscure legality over crypto usage. As a result, while competitors like YouTube cracked down on such content, Twitch remained a haven for it.
