The timing of the tweet is interesting. TikTok has faced growing scrutiny in the U.S., with whispers that parent company ByteDance might sell the app. Add MrBeast’s reputation for pulling off outrageous stunts; like giving away islands, planting 20 million trees, and recreating Squid Game—and fans couldn’t help but think: What if?
Fans flocked to X to react, with one user asking, “Bro are you serious?” while others joked about a potential “BeastTok” takeover. Some fans even speculated that if anyone could turn TikTok into something even bigger, it’s MrBeast. After all, his track record of pulling off outrageous stunts; like giving away islands and recreating Squid Game in real life—makes it hard to rule out the possibility entirely.
Could MrBeast actually afford TikTok? While he’s reportedly worth over $100 million, TikTok’s valuation in the tens of billions makes this more of a pipe dream unless he teamed up with major investors. For now, the tweet seems more like a cheeky comment than a serious business move.
When MrBeast talks, the internet pays attention. Joke or not, his tweet has fans buzzing about what crazy move the king of viral stunts might pull off next.
Stay tuned. The internet loves chaos, and MrBeast loves delivering it!
