Bits were introduced by Twitch in 2016 as a virtual item viewers buy and spend to Cheer in chat, supporting streamers while triggering animated emoticons and alerts. Different Cheer amounts have different sounds and animations, with larger amounts like 500 and above getting more prominent effects. As livestreaming grew on the platform, these alert sounds became instantly recognisable outside Twitch itself. Creators now reuse the 500 plus Bits sound in edits, parodies and soundboards to signal a generous donation, a reward moment or a streamer style reaction.

The Twitch donation alert chime heard when viewers cheer 500 or more during a livestream to support a streamer as the on-screen animation plays live.
This is the bright electronic chime sequence heard when Bits are cheered on Twitch, with the higher tier version used for donations of 500 Bits and above. The sound rises in quick sparkling notes that feel rewarding and celebratory without any spoken voice. Streamers use it as an on-screen alert so both they and the audience instantly recognise a larger cheer has arrived. It cuts through game audio and chat noise, creating a short moment of excitement and gratitude that encourages more interaction during a live broadcast.
