IShowSpeed has officially celebrated being unbanned on Twitch nearly two years after his account was permanently suspended, saying he is “different” now than he was then.
IShowSpeed is one of the most prominent live streamers online. First emerging on Twitch, Speed quickly became a household name — but his channel was permanently banned in December 2021 following his outburst during a livestream with Adin Ross .
Since then, Speed has made his home on YouTube, where he continues to dominate as one of the most-watched broadcasters on the site… but in October 2023, something happened. Completely unexpected happened.
On October 10, fans noticed that Speed’s Twitch channel had been unbanned. The news comes after Twitch CEO Dan Clancy made comments about giving some permanently banned streamers a “second chance,” though it is currently unclear why why was he banned?

It’s been more than a week since then — and on October 18, Speed finally broke the big news during a YouTube broadcast.

During his livestream, Speed exclaimed to fans that he had finally been unbanned and took to his account to show it off.
“Chat, guess what?” he teased. “I forgot all about this. Guess what, guys? …I actually got my Twitch ban lifted! I can go into someone’s chat right now and say, ‘What’s cool?’”
“It’s been two years, guys,” he continued. “It’s been two damn years, and I finally got my restraining order lifted. It took a damn long time. I’m sixteen years old, chat! The last time I was banned I was sixteen years old.”

The streamer went on to explain how much he’s changed in the nearly two years since his account was suspended – during which time he’s managed to sign an exclusive contract with Rumble to get his own show with Kai Cenat.
“I got banned as a kid, when I was 16 years old,” Speed said. “But let’s talk, I’m different now. I am a grown man. I have grown. …I am different now.”
Although Speed has yet to appear live on his account, fans are keeping an eye out in case he decides to start streaming there again.
Currently, his Twitch profile has amassed hundreds of thousands of followers, despite the fact that he hasn’t even streamed on it since his ban was lifted.
