Twitch still ‘digging into’ CS2 skin gambling streams after exposé

Skin gambling sponsorships have been outlawed on Twitch since 2023 according to the site’s community guidelines, but a six-month investigation conducted by financial and investment news site Barron’s discovered over a hundred of the most-watched CS2 Twitch streamers were still sponsored by a skin gambling site. In response, a Twitch spokesperson said to Barron’s they were “digging into the examples you raised.”
