MrBeast, one of most successful Internet creators, may join a bid by real estate mogul and Project Liberty founder Frank McCourt to buy TikTok's U.S. arm, McCourt told Axios' Sara Fischer in Davos Wednesday.

MrBeast, the internet’s most-followed and highest-earning content creator, has joined a new bid to buy TikTok.

Jimmy Donaldson, better known as MrBeast, has teamed up with Employer.com CEO Jesse Tinsley and other investors in an all-cash offer for the social platform.

After the bipartisan TikTok law was signed by former President Joe Biden in April, ByteDance said it did not have plans to sell the platform and fought the statute in court for months. China also rebuked Washington over the divestment push, though more recently it appears to be softening its stance.

The YouTube star MrBeast has joined an investor group who are vying to buy the US side of TikTok before a possible ban could be put in place.

It’s not clear if TikTok’s owner ByteDance has seriously considered the offer, Bloomberg reported. Others floated as potential buyers include Elon Musk, Amazon, Oracle, and a syndicate headed by billionaire Frank McCourt.

Will MrBeast buy TikTok? Possibly, as the YouTuber and businessman has confirmed an “official offer” for the app’s stateside operations. That’s one of the many noteworthy TikTok-related details to emerge in recent days.
