MrBeast is finally posting his content on X.
The extremely successful content creator has largely made his millions on YouTube, but his fans recently suggested he post to the Elon Musk-owned platform too.
MrBeast - real name James 'Jimmy' Donaldson - initially seemed reluctant to do so, however.
When his followers urged him to post to videos to X as well as YouTube, Musk also weighed in and simply replied 'yeah' in agreement.

But MrBeast replied: "My videos cost millions to make and even if they got a billion views on X it wouldn’t fund a fraction of it."
He added: "I’m down though to test stuff once monetization is really cranking!"
But, in a bid to test the waters, MrBeast posted a video on X and now he's now shared the results of his apparent experiment.
Sharing a screenshot of the five videos he's posted on X, MrBeast wrote yesterday (April 5): "Posting videos on X has been awesome so far."

As per the image, his videos have so far generated a minimum of 123 million views on the platform.
Going on to share the cash he's made, MrBeast said: "So far it’s been around a million in ad revenue. I’m just adding it to my video budgets so now I can spend more on content lol."
Musk replied to his post, simply writing: "Cool."

People have since responded to MrBeast's post about the revenue he's made.
"That’s 0.13 cents per view and I’ve watched 100 times so you owe me $130," one person quipped. However, someone had since corrected him and noted that, if that was really the case, he'd only be owed $13...
"Ahhh just a casual milli nothing major," someone else said alongside a laughing face emoji.
"You are doing amazing work," another person gushed.

In light of the success he's had on X so far, another fan suggested that MrBeast should start doing videos exclusively for the social media platform; and it's an idea I'm sure Musk wouldn't say no to.
Prior to his recent revelations, MrBeast suggested that he was going to quit YouTube all together.
He wrote a tweet saying so on April 1, to which Musk replied: "You should actually."

But it's likely to have been an April Fool's prank as YouTube helps the 25-year-old star make around $500 million to $700 million a year.
How the other half live.
