The streaming industry is based on a trust that whatever the stream is streaming has to be watch-worthy content. While some streamers do keep a high-end streaming promise, others sometimes lack the overall experience or charm to attract more subscribers. And amidst all this, there is also a culture of donating money on platforms like Twitch to the streamers to make them perform even better.

Therefore, it is not surprising that sometimes some random fan or a big streamer starts donating money to streamers that sometimes even change their life. From $5,000 to $1,000,000, here are the top 10 donations to Twitch streamers of all time.
