But I think it will depend a lot on the donation culture of that streamer and thus the audience's behavior.
In contrast to twitch bits, superchats also have a simpler process, because you directly send them, instead of converting money into bits first. This might have a bit of influence on user behavior, because users tend to go the way of least resistance.
