Even if my videos get a billion views on X, it wouldn't fund a fraction of it: MrBeast

Taking over Twitter and rebranding it to X, Elon Musk over time has been expressing his dire ambitions to make X the Everything app.

As part of the same, Musk has now shifted gears from pitching the platform to advertisers to creators for posting their content on X.

Most recently, the billionaire also took it upon himself to ask Jimmy Donaldson, aka MrBeast to post his videos on the platform, to which he received an astounding response.

Here’s what MrBeast replied to him-

My videos cost millions to make and even if they got a billion views on X it wouldn’t fund a fraction of it :/

I’m down though to test stuff once monetization is really cranking!

In another tweet, he also added, “I uploaded, go watch or I’ll drop kick you.”

Moving on, netizens also hyped up the discussion further by posting comments like “Plus the video user interface here is missing a lot of options that YouTube has” and “He told Elon 'You can't afford me lil bro’,” amongst others.
