Buy and trade licenced emotes
Let viewers buy (and possibly trade) global emotes or emote packs from developers and games. Similar to the Steam points shop, game developers could upload emotes from their games, and viewers could earn them through twitch drops, and/or buy them from a points store. The currency for buying emotes could be either the existing Bits currency, or a new "viewer points" currency earned from subbing to any channel, gifting, bits or even just viewing channels similar to channel points, but on a global level.
In the future, this "points shop" could also be expanded to include profile frames and other ways for viewers to express themselves.
