The popular content creator was temporarily suspended from his main platform after posting a viral video of himself jumping over several speeding supercars. This upload resulted in a Community Guidelines strike and a suspension.

IShowSpeed Has No Plans To Return To Twitch

After the ban was announced, speculation began about Speed moving to Twitch. Considering that IShowSpeed was also banned from Twitch in 2021, it's highly unlikely that he will return to the Amazon-owned platform.

Furthermore, the current YouTube suspension is expected to be short. Speed's only comment on the matter was a vague update saying he was "recharging..."

Though he was reinstated on Twitch in 2023, he has shown no interest in returning for the past two years. Currently, Speed has a massive 27.8 million followers on YouTube, compared to just 333,000 on Twitch. He previously petitioned Twitch CEO Dan Clancy for reinstatement, but when the ban was lifted late last year, he decided to stay on YouTube permanently.

During his current suspension, Speed remains active and engaged with fans through his secondary X profile, @ronaldobetter07.
