Iván “ElSpreen” Buhajeruk Gets Banned: A Huge Setback for the Rising Twitch Streamer
Popular Twitch streamer Iván “ElSpreen” Buhajeruk, known for his rapid growth on the platform, has recently been banned by Twitch, which is owned by Amazon.
This is the first time ElSpreen has faced a ban in his five-year streaming career, and it’s a major setback for his momentum.
Despite amassing 3.5 million followers and regularly attracting over 50,000 viewers per stream, ElSpreen’s streaming activities are currently on hold as he patiently waits for the ban to be lifted.
The exact reason for the ban and its duration are still unclear. Various rumors have emerged, but ElSpreen, just as confused as his fans, denies the validity of these assertions, insisting that none of them are true.
“Don’t make up reasons for the ban,” he said. “What they’re saying has no basis. It’s nonsense!”
ElSpreen assured his followers that he is working with Twitch behind the scenes to understand the cause of the ban and explore possible solutions. However, he currently has no updates to share.
“We’re addressing this matter privately, but I still don’t know what’s going to happen,” he stated. “Please be patient. In the meantime, I’ll take the opportunity to work on some projects.”
ElSpreen’s absence is a significant loss for the Spanish-speaking community, regardless of the ban’s duration. Though not as popular as streamers like AuronPlay, Ibai, and Rubius, he is steadily closing the gap and is currently the 26th most-followed streamer on the platform, with 5.6 million followers.
