The streamer had made some big claims about this streaming platform. Trainwreck had claimed that this project of his will “Revolutionize Streaming”. He also seems very confident about the project and with the brand-new leaks and promises; he is not backing an inch in terms of projecting his platform to be far better than the competitors.
Tyler Faraz Niknam, aka Trainwreckstv or Trainwreck, is an American Twitch streamer. He is somewhat of an infamous entity in the streamer circle, as he used to do a lot of “gambling streams” until the platform banned it completely. In 2017, Niknam was banned from Twitch for 5 days, due to his controversial comments about female streamers.
Trainwreckstv later gained a fresh wave of popularity in 2020, with the trend of Among Us. His style of playing the game quickly managed to give him a portion of the spotlight. Further, his skill even permitted him to win the “Code Red” Tournament of Among Us. With his newfound popularity and success, Tyler was determined to make some changes in the industry.
Trainwreckstv leaks new information about this streaming platform
On November 28, 2022, Tyler posted a tweet from his official Twitter account. In the tweet, Tyler also leaked new information and promises about his platform. He further said, “will provide a full update in a day or two, but for now, I’ll leak one thing – partnered creator sub split, 95% creator, 5% company”.
In the reply section, Trainwreck added, “f**k it, I’ll leak one more thing – we will have a bits equivalent & we won’t upcharge the viewer, you want to give $100 to your favorite creator, you should be charged ~$100 (you only pay the processing) – no more being charged $130 to get $100”.
How did fans react to his claims?
The reply section of the tweet was very interesting. Many fans and other internet personalities expressed their skepticism about such large claims. Some avid followers supported the streamer. While others presented their theories about the upcoming platform.

This could actually shake up the market 👀

Id find it hard to believe server cost could be covered with a 5% split. The cost of storing and streaming videos is going up as bitrate and resolution increases. @LinusTech did a video on YouTube wanting to charge for 4k and it makes a lot more sense when you think about it

5% revenue cut? That’s nowhere close to being enough to keep the business up and running. At that rate it’ll fail within the first 90 days.
Also, if Microsoft’s Mixer couldn’t compete with Twitch, Facebook Gaming, and YouTube gaming then what makes you think YOUR platform can?

Unless you're doing some insane P2P traffic shenanigans, this will bomb within a month.
But I digress.

Creating a whole new streaming platform just so you can gamble on stream again is crazy

This will be very interesting to see not only the people switching over, but the influx of new content creators with fresh ideas that didn’t see a career in twitch’s business model. Huge W @Trainwreckstv can’t wait to see what your platform brings. SquadW
