Going into his stream on April 15, Cameron Ferguson had no idea he would have one of the most successful nights anyone has ever had on Twitch, and it\u2019s because he was noticed by Cobie, who has the Twitter handle CryptoCobain, and hosts a show called Up Early. During Cobie\u2019s stream, he was looking for smaller streamers and stumbled across Cameron Ferguson playing music for a few people and decided to raid him. That\u2019s not all that happened, however, he also instructed the streamer to create a Twitter account, get on the cryptocurrency app Blockfolio and put his address in his bio so others could donate to him. https:\/\/twitter.com\/CryptoCobain\/status\/1382815472677179392 From there, the money just started to roll in and completely change the tiny streamer\u2019s life. \u201c$17,167\u2026\u201d Cameron shockingly gasped when he pulled up his account with all the donations. \u201cGuys, that is insane. Thank you so much. Man, I seriously appreciate that. Thank you so much.\u201d Still shocked that he could ever make so much money, the streamer confessed that he had \u201cno idea what was going on\u201d which got a laugh out of Cobie. Eventually, the streamer even brought his wife on stream to show her the good news. \u201cGuess how much money we have!\u201d he asked her. After guessing $1,000 and $2,000, Cameron showed her his phone and stunned the living daylights out of her. \u201cThis isn\u2019t real!\u201d she gasped. A bit later on, in some leaked DMs posted by Cobie, Cameron admitted she was \u201ccautiously optimistic\u201d as $85,000 doesn\u2019t just come out of nowhere. When all was said and done, however, Cameron finally posted his first-ever tweet thanking everyone for their support. https:\/\/twitter.com\/CryptoCobain\/status\/1382910942200102923 \u201cTHANK YOU! Up Only and everyone who joined in for one of the craziest nights of my life. This being my first tweet ever, I sincerely hope this thank you reaches everyone who tuned in tonight. If I don\u2019t get back to you, apologies, I\u2019m overwhelmed. Thank you!\u201d he exclaimed. It just goes to show that one stream on Twitch can completely change your life and that\u2019s exactly what happened here with one of the craziest streamer stories of all time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tiny Twitch streamer makes over $85,000 after raid by crypto enthusiasts Twitch\/cameron_ferguson_musicA small Twitch streamer who was playing guitar to a handful of people had one of the craziest nights of his life after being donated over $85,000 when crypto fanatics showed up in his chat.
