isBitsEnabled via API

I can’t find an equivalent of window.Twitch.ext.bits.isBitsEnabled in the API, e.g. server-side, outside of the extension.

There isn’t one.

But if bits aren’t enabled, the server has no knowledge of this, will expect a receipt for a paid action that was taken the free route, and not getting one will fail it. The server cannot trust the extension saying “this was paid but now is free”, as genuinely paid interactions could masquerade as free with some javascript tinkering. Hence looking for isBitsEnabled via API.

It’s not possible to get a JWT recipet from a channel that doesn’t have bits enabled.

And if there is javascript tinkering the JWT that is sent won’t validate
