Ninja hits huge YouTube milestone amid interest from streaming giants YouTube \/ Instagram: ninja[jwplayer qtClEeZt]Popular streamer Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins has hit a huge YouTube milestone as anticipation builds over where he will be streaming from in the future, following the collapse of Mixer. Ninja joined Mixer in 2019 in a multi-million dollar deal and earned a reported $30 million from it shutting down and, since then, speculation has been rife over where he\u2019ll settle next. On July 24, though, Ninja announced a big result on his YouTube channel that might convince him to sign long-term with the video-publishing platform. As he reached a total 24 million subscribers, the streaming star tweeted that he \u201cnever could have dreamed of all this support\u201d as he becomes one of the most followed gaming channels on all of YouTube, which is certainly no easy feat. We just hit 24 million subs on @YouTube Never in my life could I have dreamed of this support you all give me. Thank you \ud83d\ude4f\ud83c\udffc #TimeIn #TeamNinja \u2014 Ninja (@Ninja) July 24, 2020 This must make striking a permanent deal with YouTube more enticing, considering he has such a large audience there, and there were rumors that he had signed with them after he streamed on the platform though, with no streams since, that appears not to be the case. According to SocialBook, 24m subscribers makes Ninja the 11th most-followed gaming channel on YouTube, behind the likes of YouTube King PewDiePie, El Rubius and Markiplier. Naturally, many of Blevins\u2019 peers showed signs of support after he announced the achievement, with the likes of Tim \u2018TimTheTatman\u2019 Betar and Ben \u2018DrLupo\u2019 Lupo saying \u201cW\u201d or \u201cYUR NUTZ,\u201d as well as Jack \u2018CouRage\u2019 Dunlop simply calling him the \u201cGOAT.\u201d There are no signs yet as to who Ninja will eventually sign his long-term streaming exclusivity deal with \u2014 or if he even will at all \u2014 but we\u2019re sure both YouTube and Twitch are fighting hard, among others, to get his name on the dotted line. The mystery remains where he will end up, but it\u2019s well worth extending a congratulations to Ninja, who has continuously broken barriers for streamers and the gaming world \u2014 and now he\u2019s breaking them for himself too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
