Popular YouTube sensation MrBeast denied ongoing rumors that he planned to develop a Memecoin, claiming it feels “icky”.
MrBeast is not only the world’s most subscribed YouTube channel; he is also a businessman and, most recently, the creator of the reality TV series Beast Games. Rumors have spread online that MrBeast plans to launch a Memecoin on the Solana blockchain, a cryptocurrency platform where celebrities like as Iggy Azalea, Caitlyn Jenner, and others have previously released tokens.
When Solana Foundations’ official Twitter account started following the YouTuber, there was a lot of speculation that MrBeast would be the next famous person to work with the organization. Furthermore, on January 18, X account Crypto Beast announced on the platform that MrBeast would launch his Memecoin in “three to four days.” The post read:
“MrBeast launch confirmed. I’ll be the first to post MrBeast coin.”

MrBeast responded directly to the post when it achieved enough popularity to put an end to the rumors. He added that he would pass on it because it “feels icky”. MrBeast said:
“I could probably launch a meme coin and make hundreds of millions of dollars but idk. Just feels icky, I’ll pass.”

MrBeast’s “Beast Games” Breaks Prime Video’s Records
MrBeast, Tyler Conklin, Sean Klitzner, and Mack Hopkins created the 2024 reality competition television show Beast Games. The show is hosted by Donaldson and follows 1,000 competitors (the most in a reality show) as they compete for the $5 million prize, which is one of the biggest single awards in the history of reality television. Inspired by the popular Netflix show Squid Game and Donaldson’s viral video “$456,000 Squid Game in Real Life!”, ‘Beast Games’ first two episodes were broadcast on Amazon Prime Video on December 19, 2024.
MrBeast has repeatedly demonstrated why he is the king of content, from breaking 40 Guinness World Records with Beast Games to dominating the YouTube earnings charts in 2024. With an astounding 50 million viewers in just 25 days, Beast Games surpassed all other unscripted programs on Prime Video in terms of viewership. However, the praise doesn’t end there.
In addition to generating an increase in Prime Video’s subscription growth, the platform named the show the second-best series debut of 2024.
