Vtuber Ironmouse breaks Twitch subscriber record, surpassing 320,000 paying viewers

Twitch has a new subs champion: During a September subathon, Vtuber Ironmouse hit over 320,000 active subscribers on the platform, surpassing the previous record holder, Kai Cenat, who peaked at 306,621 subscribers last year.

Unlike 'following' a Twitch channel (which is like favoriting it), subscribing to a Twitch channel makes you a paying viewer. Amazon Prime members get one free monthly subscription to use on the channel of their choice, and otherwise it costs $4.99 per month to subscribe at the lowest tier in the US.

Ironmouse began streaming in 2017 in response to feeling isolated—she has an immune system disorder called common variable immunodeficiency—and opted to try out Vtubing in its relatively early days, appearing as a horned anime character.

The streamer is now known for her impressive singing ability, years of game streams and character development as a pink-haired demon, and her efforts to support chronic illness awareness and treatment. Ironmouse has supported the Immune Deficiency Foundation with financial donations, and also encourages her viewers to donate plasma, something she personally relies on as someone who needs regular immunoglobulin
