The platform is in need of saving in the United States, where approximately 170 million people have TikTok accounts. On Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld a federal law that will ban the platform on Jan. 19 unless TikTok’s China-based owner ByteDance divests its U.S. operations.

In his follow-up tweet, MrBeast mentioned that he would see if he could make the deal happen. The tweets have been met with a mix of amusement and hope, with many fans rooting for MrBeast to strike a deal and prevent the ban from happening.
