He has 34,809,885 followers as of July 2026 on the platform, and MrBeast's Twitter Score is 623 out of 1000 (an Excellent rating) as of July 2026, placing him at rank #173 (top 0.1%) out of 389,587 accounts tracked.

MrBeast has expanded Beast Industries into crypto and financial services, filing a trademark for MrBeast Financial in October 2025 covering crypto exchange services, DeFi trading, and cryptocurrency payment processing. In late 2025, Beast Industries raised a Series C funding round led by Alpha Wave Global at a valuation of $5.2 billion, with Donaldson holding a majority stake. In January 2026, Bitmine Immersion Technologies (BMNR), an Ethereum treasury company, announced a $200 million equity investment in Beast Industries, with a strategic focus on developing DeFi and Ethereum-based financial products targeting Gen Z and Gen Alpha users. Beast Industries acquired Step, a Gen Z-focused youth banking fintech app with 7 million users, in February 2026. The company's CEO has described Ethereum as the backbone of stablecoins and the center of its DeFi strategy. In March 2026, Senator Elizabeth Warren sent a 12-page letter to Beast Industries raising concerns about the Step acquisition and plans to integrate cryptocurrency services. Beast Industries was named to the TIME100 Most Influential Companies 2026 list.

MrBeast has attracted scrutiny over alleged past crypto activity. Blockchain investigators alleged in October and November 2024 that Donaldson profited between $10 million and $23 million by promoting crypto tokens, including SuperVerse (SUPER), Ethernity Chain (ERN), and Polkamon (PMON), before selling his positions, with many of the tokens subsequently losing over 90% of their value. All claims are alleged by third-party blockchain analysts, and no formal regulatory charges or SEC actions have been filed.
