TikTok is here to stay—for now.
Just a day before the app’s ban was set to take place, if ByteDance, based in China, couldn’t find a suitable buyer for its U.S. operations, President Donald Trump decided to extend the deadline.
On my platform, Truth Social, April 4th, I announced that my team has been diligently working on a plan to secure the future of TikTok. We’ve made significant strides in this effort. However, to finalize everything and obtain all necessary approvals, I am issuing an Executive Order to extend TikTok’s operation for another 75 days.
Later on, he expressed, “It’s important that TikTok stays active. We are eager to collaborate with TikTok and China to finalize the agreement. I appreciate your interest in this topic!
Two days ago, NBC News learned from a source involved in the talks that Amazon, led by Jeff Bezos, could potentially become a client.
The report indicates that Amazon submitted their proposal in a letter directed to Vice President JD Vance and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. Yet, since the submission arrived just a few days before the deadline, it appears the offer wasn’t taken as a genuine contender.
Earlier this year, TikTok temporarily shut down on January 19 due to non-compliance with a law that had been passed during the tenure of former President Joe Biden. However, this downtime was brief as Donald Trump extended ByteDance’s deadline by 75 days when he took office.
An executive order extending the deadline provided guidance to the attorney general, directing them not to impose fines on internet service providers and app store platforms such as Google and Apple, for their continued support of TikTok.
Ever since he assumed office, Trump has consistently shown a strong resolve to ensure TikTok remains operational within the U.S.
On March 30, the 78-year-old informed reporters that there are many people who could become buyers, and there’s an enormous amount of curiosity surrounding TikTok.
Trump mentioned that ultimately, the decision regarding the sale lies with him, but he also expressed interest in TikTok, stating that many people are keen on purchasing it.
Despite Trump expressing assurance before April 5, his vice president admitted the complexities involved in finalizing such a significant commercial agreement.
Generally, deals of smaller size and lower capital requirements often take several months to finalize, as Vance explained to NBC News on March 14. However, we’re aiming to wrap up this particular deal by early April. I believe the main details will be evident. The challenge lies in completing all the necessary paperwork.
As TikTok’s fate remains undecided, let’s delve into the earnings of influencers who post on the platform, plus discover how they monetize their content across various social media outlets.
Last year, a model on OnlyFans disclosed that she earned more than $43 million through the adult subscription service. To put this into perspective, she even posted screenshots of her income from November 2023 to November 2024, which showed a single subscriber contributing a substantial $4.7 million to her earnings.
As a 13-year-old, the former star of Dance Moms announced she was earning “a substantial amount” on YouTube videos, and in the documentary Child Star (2024), she mentioned that she shares up to 300 posts daily on Snapchat as part of her growing influencer career.
The TikToker revealed he has a net worth of over seven figures.
In a video from July 2024, he humorously remarked, “Feel free to continue calling me pesky,” he said. “Becoming a millionaire is one of the perks of being pesky.
A makeup artist shares that during his TikTok live sessions (held 4-5 times weekly), he earns approximately $50,000 by selling cosmetic products and receiving gifts from fans.
Jeffree mentioned during the Cancelled podcast in November 2024 that he would be preparing bacon for breakfast and earning $50,000. He added that there are instances when he doesn’t sell anything at all, and instead, he prepares bacon in his kitchen while wearing a bathrobe and slippers. He enjoys spending time this way, chatting and answering questions from others.
Other times, he’s making bank by offering discounts on his own branded makeup products.
“It’s a niche market but it’s massive,” he added. “We’re the No. 1 or 2 beauty store.”
As a prominent figure on the OnlyFans platform, I shared with TopMob News that I generate a substantial income by crafting content deemed not safe for work.

The majority of this revenue is derived from brand partnerships and Snapchat’s mid-roll program, which keeps my dance videos popping and your feed engaging!
As a devoted fan who followed their journey closely, I can’t help but share my excitement about the dynamic duo who captivated audiences on the reality show “Love Is Blind” in 2022. Stepping out from the limelight of Netflix, they swiftly transitioned into social media sensations, raking in an impressive $500,000 each within a mere two years as influential figures in the digital world.
In January 2024, the popular ASMR influencer who goes by @itsblitzzz on YouTube revealed that she earns approximately $56,400 per year through ad revenue from her previously created videos, without producing fresh content.
She has earned more than half a million dollars ($610,000) from ad revenue on the platform over the past 14 years, and she has fewer than one million subscribers.
In September 2024, an ASMR artist disclosed that she earned approximately $3,948.05 from TikTok, where she has close to 400,000 followers, and around $910.95 from YouTube, with almost 27,000 subscribers.
