Allow Streamers to add points to viewers + Other ideas
The BEST point system i used was from a third party & here are things i wish Twitch channel points would add.
A feature where we can reward viewers with channel points as a incentive for giving bits MULTIPLE TIMES. Instead of just recieving bits once a month. It should be whenever they give bits. Of course this feature should allowed to be enabled/disabled by the streamer.
A feature where we can reward viewers with channel points for gifting subs. Another feature that could be enabled/disabled by the streamer.
A general "give points" feauture. Theres, plenty of times where I want to give channel points as a general reward.
4.Twitch might be worried about the "boost your stream" and how we can take advantage of it if we always give channel points, so there should be a system where a viewer can only "boost a stream" with the channel points they have earned. For EX "@username has a total of 151,345 Points. 98,354 Earned| 52,991 Given.
Allow streamers to see how much points a viewer has
Add a Points Leaderboard
Chat Games with Channel points. Allow viewers to !gamble with their points! Twitch can either decide the odds or give us a threshhold. A good !gamble feature was a 100-dice roll. The higher the number on the dice you rolled the bigger the multiplier. The lower the number you could win very little or nothing at all & lose your points.
A !raffle feauture. The streamer should be able to run a raffle for x amount of points. For EX : Streamer starts a raffle for 5K channel points. There can be anywhere between 1-5 winners. the 5K can be slipt evenly amongst the winners. This is a in chat feature where viewers vote/command to join.
These are my ideas that I believe would make channel points feel much more rewarding for the viewers. Again these could all be toggled to be enabled/disabled by the streamer.

I like this idea. Always thought it was too restricted how you only earn points for bits and subs once a month. This would give people more incentive and help streamers and Twitch alike make more munees.

Channel Point redemption leaderboard. Your special reward (tacos) can be redeemed by viewers and the viewers can battle out redemptions for the number one spot.

Other third party services provide this feature, and I think it would be great to give bragging rights to the best predictors/most dedicated point earners!

Can we get some leaderboard on our channel ? Like who has the most points etc.

I and the channel I mod for would love this. We tend to "all in" a lot on point so it would be cool to see who has the most points, who has spent the most points, and who has lost the most points. :D

You didn't specify what kind of leaderboard, but I'm going to throw my 2 cents in on a "Total Points" leaderboard.
I'm against a "Total Points" leaderboards. I would love to see leaderboards for points SPENT (excluding a users rejected rewards). From what I've seen, hoarding channel points contradicts the whole purpose of the system, which is engagement. A "Points Spent" leaderboard would incentivize spending and push the feature.

A channel point leaderboard
I feel like this would be another fun inclination for viewers to stay in channels and to show who is most active in the communities.
