The name Ninja may appear to be fairly ambiguous, but in online communities, the term has deep significance. Tyler Richard Blevins, the richest Twitch streamer, who has found fame by streaming 'Fortnite', goes by the online pseudonym Ninja. For an estimated $20M, Blevins agreed to an exclusive streaming contract with Microsoft's Mixer platform in 2018.
The agreement was a significant win for both, but it was only temporary because Mixer was shut down a year later. Ninja has about 10,000 subscribers right now. He once reached a peak of about 269,000, but it doesn't seem likely that he will reach that number again anytime soon. On Twitch, he presently has 18.5 million followers.

What is Ninja’s net worth?
Ninja's estimated net worth ranges between $30M to $50M, per Vloggergear. Although he became rich by playing 'Fortnite' on Twitch, he has also made his 'Ninja' brand famous across a variety of online media.
With the disclosure of the record-breaking sum he earned, Ninja declared 2018 to be his most prosperous year on Twitch. Speaking to CNN, Ninja revealed that he earned close to $10M in 2018 from Twitch and YouTube combined, per Fortnite Intel.
In order to put the aforementioned figure into perspective, estimations had previously suggested that he was making close to $500,000. However, in 2023, it can be predicted that the figure will rise.
How much does the 'richest' Twitch streamer make on Twitch and YouTube?
Ninja's annual revenue from Twitch subscribers is estimated to be roughly $500,000. This is due to the fact that Twitch pays streamers $2.50 for every subscriber they have, and Blevins has over 10,000. He also makes money from endorsements, sponsorships and brand deals.
Additionally, Ninja's large number of YouTube subscribers qualifies him for the Google/YouTube Preferred Partnership program. This implies that he receives a bigger revenue share, which could range from 90% to 95%.
In light of this, the Cost Per Mile (CPM) is estimated to be $6,000–$12,000 thousand views. Ninja makes $500,000 a year on average, thanks to his many videos' combined 7,000,000 monthly views.
