Who is the most-followed Twitch streamer? Kai Cenat climbs ladder amid ongoing Mafiathon …

On September 1, 2025, Twitch megastar Kai Cenat embarked on a subathon, or streaming marathon, titled Mafiathon 3. This event marks the streamer’s third year with the Mafiathon series, where he stays on the clock, streaming for thirty days straight, 24/7. Two of the objectives of this subathon are to raise money for a school in Nigeria and for Cenat to attain one million active subscribers. In terms of followers, Cenat is number two on the platform, with about 19.3 million, trailing behind Spanish-speaking streamer Ibai, who has over 19.7 million. Notably, Kai recently overtook Fortnite streaming legend Tyler “Ninja” during Mafiathon 3. At the beginning of September 2025, Ninja had about 19.2 million followers on the platform, while Cenat had about 18.7 million. Nearly fifteen days later, Kai expanded his following by over 600,000 followers while Ninja’s decreased by about 2,000. In 2018, during the height of Fortnite fever, Tyler became the first individual Twitch streamer to surpass 10 million followers. In early August 2025, Ibai overtook Ninja to become the platform’s most-followed. “We are on a phenomenal pace”: Kai Cenat speaks on the journey to a million Twitch subscribers [Timestamp – 10:14:01] On day 11 of the subathon
