1) Ibai — 19,763,733 followers

Spain’s stadium-scale showman sits at #1 after another record-breaking edition of La Velada del Año V (9.3M peak on his channel; 14M platform-wide at the peak), which pulled in mainstream audiences and a wave of new follows. Streams Charts

3) KaiCenat — 18,635,312

The king of long-form Just Chatting marathons sits third by followers and first in many engagement charts thanks to subathon moments—he owns the all-time active sub record (728.5K). Streams Charts

Showman-style Spanish creator known for spectacle streams and creator-league moments. His events continue to mint new followers each season. TwitchTracker

8) xQc — 12,169,088

Variety’s pace-setter: relentless format switches and high chat velocity keep discovery high and the follower base north of 12 million. TwitchTracker

9) juansguarnizo — 11,579,487

Methodology

• Primary source: the live “Most Followers” table on TwitchTracker, which reads totals from channel pages and updates frequently. We pulled counts on September 2, 2025 (UTC). TwitchTracker
  
  
• Cross-check: we confirmed the top five order against StreamsCharts and spot-checked counts on TwitchMetrics and on individual channel pages where useful (e.g., jadoreshayne, Pokimane). Small differences between trackers are normal because refresh cadences differ. Streams Chartstwitchmetrics.netTwitch

FAQ

Why do follower counts differ slightly across sites?

Different leaderboards refresh at different times and sometimes cache numbers. We anchor today’s list to TwitchTracker and cross-confirm order with StreamsCharts and TwitchMetrics. 

Why is a rarely active account like “jadoreshayne” in the top 10?

The ranking is by total followers, not by activity. That account’s follower total is visible on its Twitch profile and appears on all major trackers, so it qualifies even with limited streaming. 

Who’s most likely to flip the #1 spot next?

Ninja and Ibai are separated by tens of thousands, and event spikes (e.g., La Velada) can swing the order quickly; Kai Cenat continues to climb on the back of culture-driving marathons.
