Matthew Rinaudo, professionally known as Mizkif, has had a long-standing career in YouTube and Twitch while balancing his time as the founding member and co-owner of the gaming organization One Ture King and has amassed a net worth of $1 million.
Born on February 16, 1995, Mizkif began his streaming with a small community and later gained popularity as the cameraman for fellow streamer Paul Denino.
Moreover, during the pandemic, the streamer earned over $5,600 during a sleepover stream, which he later described as content that differed from his normal one and felt more relaxing than regular gaming.
During the 2020 U.S. presidential election, Mizkif became the third-most-watched Twitch streamer, which helped him quickly gain one million followers on the platform in early 2021.
Along with his gaming career, the streamer has developed a game called Unrooted and even launched his podcast, Just Chatting Podcast, where he has one-on-one conversations with guests.
With such a diverse career, it wasn’t surprising that the 29-year-old Mizkif lived a wealthy life with a net worth in the millions.

During his numerous streams, Mizkif has talked about the sources of his funds, which primarily come from his regular streams. His channel has over 10,000 subscribers and over 2 million followers.
On average, Twitch pays $30,000 per month to streamers with over 10,000 monthly viewers, and Mizkif holds the record of 17,632 monthly viewers. His funds also come from donations and sponsorship posts.
Likewise, in a Q&A stream, Mizkif revealed that he earned $106,755 even while he didn’t post regularly and added that the earnings were during his lowest month as a streamer.
In addition to his Twitch videos, he generates over $31k monthly from YouTube, which has over 10 million views.
Soon after the opening of his Iron Forge Gym, the streamer calculated his periodic income, shocking fans as his total profit came to around fifteen thousand dollars despite being a new business.
With such a significant income, Mizkif gives back to the community. In 2019, he held a charity stream for St. David’s Children’s Hospital in Texas and used the revenue to purchase toys for the patients.
Similarly, he organized a 26-hour stream to raise funds for the victims of the Turkey-Syria earthquake victims and managed to raise over $80,000 with the help of his large Twitch community.
Regardless of his philanthropic efforts, Mizkif lost a large fortune after declining a controversial Saudi Arabian sponsorship, which ultimately led to a severe online backlash.
Despite facing troubles, Mizkif remains one of the most-watched Twitch streamers. He lives a fulfilled life in a shared house in Texas with his friends Russel, Simply, and Emiru.
