Insider's look into Bounty Board Rates

Curious to know what kind of rates Twitch's bounty board program provides to the top end streamers on the platform?  Well look no further, thanks to a streamer who is careless and shares this data we can come up with the general rates of bounty boards.

Here is what a streamer who generally averages 12,000 viewers gets for a 1 hour bounty board.

It lists 7,091 dollars for 1 hour which is about 59-60 cents per viewer if we assume 12,000 concurrents.

Here is another screenshot of the same streamer during a different period showing the actual bounty internal data.

On this panel it lists that they must average 10,675 concurrent viewers to get the max payout of 3,789 dollars.  This leads to around 35 cents per concurrent viewer.

Whatever way you look at it, this is a extreme amount of money for just 1 hour of streaming. If any gaming company or agency read this post and wants a opinion here is my own thoughts.  Don't pay for large streamers with big numbers, pay streamers who are in the range of 100 to 400 viewers. In my view these streamers are more likely to continue playing the game for a extended session.  Some may even start to stream the game regularly. A good example of this occuring is my own experience with receiving a Black Desert Online bounty.  Its a game I always wanted to try but never went into it until the opportunity with the bounty happened. I currently stream this game regularly on my twitch channel.
