This Memory is on the Blockchain!
Home to a Gamer's Content Creator Behemoth
Blox 1318 is home to Twitch - the streaming platform born out of Justin.tv and now owned by Amazon. At one point Twitch was the fourth largest source of peak internet traffic in the entire United States and led to the shut down of YouTube Gaming in 2015.
In the Beginning...
Twitch started life as the gaming category of Justin.tv to allow anyone to stream video online. By 2011, it was by far the most popular content leading to the spin off and ultimate sale to Amazon.

Guy Raz did an episode of "How I Built This" about Twitch that is well worth the listen.
