The return was even briefly commented on by the streamer himself, who shared the information about the revocation of the ban on his Instagram.
The reason for Kai Cenat’s Twitch ban
Even though it is not the first time that Kai Cenat has been temporarily banned on Twitch, not even the first time in 2023, the reason for the most recent banning of the streamer remains a mystery, officially.
Unofficially, according to the Dexerto website, which cites a source close to the streamer, Kai Cenat has been temporarily banned from Twitch for demonstrating “simulated sexual activity” during a “GTA” RP broadcast.
The return of Kai Cenat also adds fuel to Twitch and Kick’s competition for the biggest streamers of today, and Kai Cenat is one of the main ones among them.
In total, Kai Cenat was temporarily banned on Twitch 5 times and Kick guarantees that, if he changes his live streams to the new platform, a direct competitor to the Amazon platform, these bans will never happen.
Adin Ross even assured Kai that he would never be banned on Kick, in addition to having a higher billing for his work on the platform. Trainwreck, co-founder of Kick and principal spokesperson of the new platform, has also already shown its interest in removing Kai Cenat from the Amazon platform.
