On January 14, 2026, Kai Cenat took to X to share a video of his interaction with Twitch CEO Dan Clancy at The Streamer Awards 2025. In his social media post captioned, "No accountability," Kai Cenat appeared to confront Dan Clancy for not including him in his Mount Rushmore of Streamers. For context, in October 2025, Dan Clancy appeared as a guest on Matthew "Mizkif's" IRL livestream, where he named the content creators he would include on his Mount Rushmore of Streamers. While claiming that he initially decided to include Cenat because the New Yorker "asked him," making him feel compelled to include him alongside some of the pioneers in the livestreaming industry, Dan Clancy stated: "Part of it is there's always this tension, like, it is fair to say, you kinda, it probably should be more historical. You know, in other words, Kai is big now, but you know, arguably, it's like, he asked me, so I had to put him on there. But, are you? It's like, look, you're great, but you can't be on the Mount Rushmore yet." When Kai Cenat confronted the Twitch CEO over his comments on Mizkif's livestream, the 62-year-old responded by claiming that

Hytale accumulated over 420,000 concurrent viewers on Twitch following its early access launch. Hytale launched into early access yesterday to an overwhelmingly positive reception, following nearly a decade of anticipation, delays, and an unexpected revival. The game is a sandbox RPG with multiplayer elements, and has already been dubbed “Minecraft 2.0” by much of the community. Following its release, the game skyrocketed to become the most-watched title on the livestreaming platform Twitch, peaking at over 420,000 concurrent viewers across thousands of streams around 12 hours ago. At the time of writing, the game remains among the top-watched games, rivaling the numbers for GTA V, VALORANT, Dota 2, and Counter-Strike 2. Its early success is evident across multiple fronts. According to the developers, Hytale recorded more than 2.8 million concurrent users at launch, while pre-orders have reportedly already covered two years’ worth of development costs.  However, this positive launch comes after a turbulent and uncertain development period for the game. A turbulent road to Hytale’s release Hytale began development in 2015 by the Hypixel team, a group of creators behind the popular Minecraft server of the same name. Initially self-financed, the project later received funding from Riot Games, before the studio

Credit: Riot It might have taken a decade of development, cancellation, and miraculous project revival, but Hytale, the Minecraft-esque voxel sandbox RPG, has finally launched in early access. As a metric for just how much hype Hytale has built up, its first announcement trailer has amassed an absurd 62 million views since it was uploaded in 2018. We are, eternally, yearning to play with blocks. For Hytale, that yearning seems to have paid off. After going live earlier today, Hytale is at time of writing the most watched game on Twitch by far, attracting over 420,000 viewers across thousands of streams. Credit: Twitch A cursory survey of those launch streams seems to indicate that many day one players are being brutally savaged by the bears roaming Hytale's forests, which—if you're wondering—matches the early experiences of PC Gamer staff. There's a bear outside my starting hut as I write this. It's not going well. But things do seem to be going well for Hytale. Yesterday, Hytale developer Hypixel announced that pre-purchases had already secured the next two years of early access development costs. And
