Twitch appears to have been hacked, leaking ALL the source code of the streaming service, an unreleased competitor for the Steam app and also the details of creator payouts.
The hacker said the purpose of the leak was to “foster more disruption and competition in the online video streaming space”, which he described as a “disgusting toxic cesspool”, according to the 4Chan post which was reviewed by the Bloomberg News.
Twitch confirmed the breach and said it would provide updated when it has more information.
We can confirm a breach has taken place. Our teams are working with urgency to understand the extent of this. We will update the community as soon as additional information is available. Thank you for bearing with us.

I'll recommend everyone to go and reset the password and add also a 2nd factor authentication and not the one with the SMS. You can use the Authy app as a MFA for Twitch (it's really easy to use).
