While the uncertainty about the future of TikTok in the US continues, it was reported that the first official offer was made. It was learned that famous YouTuber MrBeast was among the bidders.
The future of the social media platform TikTok in the US remains uncertain. TikTok, which was closed over the weekend, was reopened by the decision of US President Donald Trump. Trump had instructed the Department of Justice not to enforce the law banning TikTok nationwide for 75 days. TikTok was supposed to be sold to an American company during this period, but the first offer came from YouTuber MrBeast. World-famous YouTuber MrBeast announced that he had submitted an official offer to buy TikTok. MrBeast expressed the possibility of becoming the company’s new CEO. However, no information was given regarding the numerical details of the offer. The offer was made by MrBeast, Jesse Tinsley, CEO of the workforce management platform Employer.com, and a group of investors. The group’s legal advisors include Brad Bondi, the brother of Trump’s attorney general candidate Pam Bondi. According to Bloomberg, it is not yet known whether TikTok’s owner ByteDance is seriously considering the offer. Trump had stated that Elon Musk or Oracle Chairman Larry Ellison were open to the idea of buying TikTok.
