MrBeast Goes To Place Official Bid for TikTok

YouTube star MrBeast is set to place a bid to purchase TikTok after it narrowly avoided a US ban. On January 20, he shared a TikTok video from a private jet, teasing a "crazy" offer. Fans are eagerly watching to see how this unfolds.

MrBeast’s move comes after high-profile figures, including Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary, expressed interest in acquiring the platform. With his vast online influence and loyal fanbase, many are excited about the possibility of him taking ownership of TikTok.

SOCIAL MEDIA
X Set to Introduce Video Tab Amid TikTok Uncertainty

X, formerly known as Twitter, has announced plans to add a video tab to their mobile app amid growing uncertainty around the future of TikTok. Following a series of updates under Elon Musk’s ownership, including the introduction of Grok AI in December 2024, X is now expanding its features with a dedicated video section.

Announced on January 20, 2025, the new video tab will allow users to scroll through short videos similar to TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels. However, as excitement builds, some users have expressed concerns about X potentially becoming a direct competitor to TikTok, with one user stating, “Please don’t make this the next TikTok. I deleted that app for a reason.”

Although nothing is final, their interactions hint at a potential future showdown in the ring.
