The idea is good to prevent people from getting scammed by scam website but it is not really fair for legit gambling sites that used to promote the casino games by partnering with popular twitch streamers. I'm not a fan of twitch as well as gambling streamers but in terms of marketing strategy of legit casinos, I do not think it is a good move from twitch. Probably it will be better if twitch have a filter to allow legit streamers who promote legit casinos.

That is a good move for them as they want to limit the gambling site indicates scam so they can not get more attention from the audiences. It is a kind of responsibility for them to always warn the scammer because I think much younger generations use that platform and do not want to see the addicted people to gambling increase.
But if the other platform is not doing the same as Twitch, those scam gambling sites can use other social media to influence the audience to play gambling. But hopefully, it can impact the scam gambling site so they do not even try to use the other platform to scam people.

For now the Twitch company has grown rapidly more than 15 million users worldwide, currently those who use this platform with a total monthly visitor can reach 140 million, YouTube, Facebook, can be beat by Amazon's subsidiary company (Switch) for now in terms of playing games directly, with smartphones being the best choice today among young people over 18 years old.
If this update is implemented by the Twitch company, I think it will have a big impact on them especially users and revenue.
For now they are very well received in the field of live online gaming, for that I think they should consider what percentage of people like slots, roulette and craps, and what percentage do not like, before deciding on this policy.
If this is not considered, it can affect their own company, I think if their reason is gambling that leads to fraud, they just need to remove the gambling content, instead of referring to honest and responsible gambling sites.

I don't think it will impact the crypto gambling's existing Market because people already know which one to go but may slow down the adoption rate since the promotion of legit site also prohibited. But as of now it will create no impact at all since the gambling sites mainly concentrate on YouTube streaming media than others and also there are lot of other ways to bring their promotion. Quote

I wouldn't be surprise if Youtube would also do this, banning/removing gambling related links. I've seen a lot of gambling site reviews lately in youtube that turn out to be a scam. So I think youtube should also do this but I don't think when.

Well, it is true for a fact that scams of many types of casinos have been increasing and don't really seem to be actually stopping, so it was quite understandable for twitch to actually do this. As for it affecting crypto gambling, I don't think it should affect it much? I mean there are still other platforms and as long as we don't have numbers that actually show how much of an influence twitch has onto the crypto gambling scene. Highly doubt it's THAT high though, that it would actually affect the visitors that platforms actually have.

Well, it's not the crypto gambling that may affected but related twitch gambling streaming may tend to decrease because these streamers may find another platform to stream it live. These streamers will still have time to remind their viewers where and when they'll transition.
Moreover, I think this isn't will be the issue with the links it might be more than that, maybe they'll restrict streaming gambling in the future and this is just the pre-announcement for that.

Too many kids are watching these streams, mostly sponsored by casinos! And it's insane how they play with high stakes, buying bonus rounds with thousands of dollars, and winning with the last money, usually some insane win! Twitch will just follow regulations if they wish to continue working!
I think the same, gambling streamers will find a new platform! It will be interesting to see what will they choose... I am not sure is there some alternative for them at the moment!?

The rate of scam gambling sites keep increasing as the day goes by and I might not blame them much for their decisions. But prohibiting shared links or referral codes to sites that offer slots , roulette, or dice games will not cause any impact on crypto casinos because streamers has till 17th of August and certainly a new option will however emerge. It's a digital society and I see this as room for other hidden streaming sites to Emerge.
