00:00 The popular YouTuber James Tiffin, also known as MrBeast, has recently made his debut on
00:06 X, formerly known as Twitter, with a video that quickly gained over 20 million views.
00:14 After conquering YouTube, MrBeast is now ready to make a big impact on the X platform.
00:20 Earlier, the head of X, Elon Musk, suggested that YouTubers should start sharing videos
00:26 on X.
00:27 Responding to Musk's suggestion, MrBeast mentioned, "My videos cost millions to make, and even
00:35 if they got a billion views on X, it wouldn't fund a fraction of it."
00:41 He added, "I'm down though to test stuff once monetization is really cranking."
00:47 The uploaded video, titled "$1 Car vs $1 Crore Car" carries the caption, "I'm curious how
00:54 much ad revenue on video on X would make, so I'm uploading this to test it."
01:00 We'll share ad revenue next week.
01:03 Within less than 24 hours, the video has already gained more than 20 million views.
01:09 MrBeast have over 225 million subscribers on YouTube and has accumulated 25 million
01:15 followers on X. X initiated its ad revenue sharing program last year, and MrBeast is
01:22 among the content creators who have joined the platform.
01:26 The Street's estimates suggest that MrBeast earns between $3-5 million monthly through
01:32 ads and sponsorship, with his past YouTube income averaging $4.5 million per month.
01:41 Forbes reports that this income potential could secure him a spot in the top 40 of the
01:47 celebrity 100 list, surpassing well-known figures like Billie Eilish, Kim Kardashian,
01:53 Angelina Jolie and even the K-pop sensation BTS.
