Twitch Streamer Breaks Record with Continuous Three-Year Broadcast

Twitch remains a platform where content creators often venture into uncharted territories, setting new milestones and shattering existing records. In a recent development, streamers Kai Cenat and Benny Blanco stumbled upon an astonishing achievement by a fellow streamer who has been broadcasting live since November 2021, marking an impressive three-year streak.

For those who are unfamiliar with Twitch culture, the competitive nature among streamers often leads to attempts to break various records, such as amassing the highest subscriber count or maintaining the longest continuous stream. Among these attempts, a notable practice is the ‘subathon,’ where each new subscriber or donation adds more time to the stream’s total duration.

According to sources, the current record for the longest subathon on Twitch is held by streamer Emilycc, who has been broadcasting around the clock for 1,104 days as of November 20. Officially streaming since January 2016, and partnered with Twitch since October 31, 2016, Emily’s live session is governed by a timer indicating how long she should continue. With 645 hours remaining, the timer increases with every new subscription, potentially extending her record-breaking broadcast.

Emily, based in Texas, recently featured on a segment where Kai Cenat was joined by Benny Blanco, a recurring guest in the «Kai-iverse» series. «I’ve been live for three years straight, yes. I’m not lying. You can look me up. … Three years straight, 24/7,» Emily confirmed during the session. Kai responded, «You motivate me,» acknowledging her dedication.

Throughout this period, Emily has allowed her audience to become immersed in her daily life. Her broadcasts capture everything from mundane activities like walking her dog to more personal moments such as sleeping and hosting fully-clothed shower streams. Remarkably, during power outages, Emily resorts to streaming on her phone to ensure her streak is uninterrupted. Her passion for gaming is evident as she shares her enjoyment of titles like ‘World of Warcraft,’ horror games, and interactive Jackbox sessions, enriching her connection with her audience.

Notably, another streamer, SweatyPedals, follows closely with over 600 consecutive days of nonstop streaming, showcasing a similar dedication to documenting their continuous live experience.
