I'd suggest a tool so mods could accept or deny a bit message.

It happens that your streamer wants to roleplay but the chat is doing metagaming, right? Well, I used to think that sub mode or emote mode could've solved it, but there is always that enlightned user who sends bits and messes it up.

This case is the softiest. You also have hateful donos or spam that banning is not enough because if text-to-speech is enabled, the streamer ends up knowing.

At first my idea was to put all bits messages in automod queue so mods read them, accept them or not, but it's true that some streamers receive hundreds of donations so it could really be annoying.

So my final plan is to have a switch that allow the moderators:

1. Have control over all bit messages,
2. Have control over messages with banned words,
3. Not have control over bits at all.

Of course, if message is rejected, they get their bits back.

And this would be managed by the channel's owner.

Thank you and have a nice day!

acredito que seria interessante que usuários que adquirem regularmente bits dentro da plataforma ganhassem uma recompensa em forma de cashback, esse cashback seria em bits gratis para enviar a qualquer streamer da plataforma, o mesmo deveria ser feito a quem regularmente distribui gift subs a comunidade recebendo assim um cashback em forma de gift para presentear quaiquer viewers dentro da plataforma.

I believe it would be interesting for users who regularly acquire bits within the platform to earn a cashback reward, this cashback would be in free bits to send to any streamer of the platform, the same should be done to those who regularly distribute gifts to the community thus receiving a cashback in the form of a gift to gift any viewers within the platform.

An early request to NOT proceed with this new functionality for bits that convert them into Animated Emotes without being able to edit the amount.

While I think the idea is cute, it is a negative experience for anyone who likes to give anything other than 1-100-1000-10000-50000 bits.

When I give bits, I often click a Bits amount (normally 1) and then edit the number to be what I want it to be. ie. 25, 69, 123 etc... This test makes the experience much less fluid, requiring me to type out the amount each time. OR, if I accidentally type the wrong amount, having to start over from scratch AGAIN.

A solution: Remove the 1 bit option, and replace it with a blank space that I can populate with the amount I want to give BEFORE clicking on it.

change the bits to like tiktok type. each icon have their own bit price, not 10,100,100,5000
example a rose cost 10, a love cost 100 bit, no other bit option.
and while pressing will sent it right away like tiktok. not while pressing it shown at chat text. and while sending it give exp to level the badge for example a rose give 1 exp, love give 100 exp. and make 1 icon like for 100, after sending the 100 will get 100 exp, but! this is the only 1, 1 icon can give extra random 1 exp, 66 exp, 1000exp for each sent. i think this is more fun then this old bit system, and they will try to make their badge even higher. each badge have 7 day expired, if didnt sent for 7 days, the badge will drop some exp or drop badge level. please try to change it, to make twitch more fun.

First of all, I would like to state that I am only posting this here because I couldn't find any other media to convey my feedback to Twitch about the matter. This page looks more like an "ideas" page than a feedback page, but as there aren't any feedback media, I will write about it here. (The ticket page auto-directs users here when the option "feedback" is selected)

After the recent Twitch data leak, some users have noticed unusual bits activity in some small streamers' data in the Turkish community. After a short while, more data were discovered and a whole money laundering scandal was uncovered. It was discovered that some small streamers were using the bits system to launder money by working with credit card thieves who use stolen credit cards to purchase bits, send them to said streamers and receive half the revenue. The rabbit hole goes deeper and deeper which is why I can't write the whole story down here but a google search should do the trick for those who want to learn more...

What I want to stress on at the moment is Twitch's attitude on the event. Let alone take action on streamers who took part in criminal activity (even those who admitted to it live on stream), Twitch did not even acknowledge the situation in any shape or form. There was a Twitter hashtag (#temiztwitch), which even went globally trending. Many big streamers quit streaming on the platform for 5 days in protest and Twitch still did not respond.

Coming to the actual "feedback" and the purpose of this post; I, as a frequent Twitch user, don't want to support such a corporation that does not take action to improve their platform or support those who want to. I understand that taking action on such matters can be very difficult as a corporation. However, I don't buy it as an excuse in the situation where about 10 million USD were laundered. By not receiving any response from Twitch, I feel as if the Turkish community is not being taken seriously at all, getting ignored because Turkish streamers do not generate as much revenue as global or english-speaking streamers... As a Turkish user, I feel disappointed and expect a response about the situation.

Finally, thanks to the community team in advance for checking in the situation.(at least I hope they do). And I hope this post just does not get deleted. If I posted this on the wrong sub/platform, please show me where to leave my feedback properly.

As far as I know there is no way to determine whether a channel has bits rewards emotes (unique and permanent emotes unlocked by spending 1K bits, 5K bits, 10K bits, etc. in that channel) unless the owner or someone with the emote uses it in chat. It apparently can't be looked up in the bits menu for the channel or anywhere else.

I'm not referring to cheer emotes, or to custom bit badges for certain levels that appear next to your username when in that channel, but to permanent emotes that can be used anywhere on Twitch, even if you don't subscribe to the channel in question. The emotes are tied to bits spent, not to subscriber status.

Is there a way to know whether a channel has bits rewards emotes without waiting for them to be used or asking the owner of the channel? It would be very useful for those of us who follow dozens of channels but aren't sure which of them have them and which don't have them. Thanks!

As a Twitch streamer, I believe these can be improved to make bits a more fun and rewarding options for viewers:

1. Up to 5 Animated emotes as an option for bit emote rewards that streamers can put in any slot.
2. Allow streamers to give their bot access to using bit emotes. Currently, partnered streamers can give permanent tier 3 subs to bots, but this doesn't give the bot access to bit emotes.
3. Currently, bit badges go up to 5 million. It should go higher.
4. Expand the current channel points system to include redemptions with bits

I think these improvements would encourage many more people to use bits!
