The Beastverse is expanding, and no, we don't mean via an American version of his controversial Beast Land theme park.
No matter what you think of him, Jimmy "MrBeast" Donaldson has long outgrown his simple legacy as the most-subscribed channel on YouTube, having his fingers in many Beast pies and expanding into numerous Beast ventures.
Away from his Feastables chocolate bars and Lunchly snack kits, there's the aforementioned theme park in Saudi Arabia, MrBeast's hit Beast Games series on Amazon, and even reports he could launch his own mobile network.
If he wasn't already busy enough with Beast Games season 2 and all his usual YouTube videos, there are major hints that you could soon get rich off the back of his business empire.

As reported by TechCrunch, Donaldson might soon be letting you buy a slice of his pie via an IPO (initial public offering).
In the aftermath of Beast Industries being valued at $5 billion in 2024, company CEO Jeff Housenbold has seemingly suggested that an IPO is on the way. When pushed on the idea of an IPO at the DealBook Summit, reporter Andrew Ross Sorkin said: "You want to have an IPO at some point, I imagine."
Looking further ahead, Housenbold replied: "At some point, we want to be able to give the 1.4 billion unique people around the world who has watched Jimmy’s content the last 90 days a chance to be owners of the company."
While not gospel, the outlet notes that an IPO is the most practical way to give over a billion people ownership stakes.
Creators having stocks listed on the NASDAQ wouldn't be anything new, and although they were removed after a few months, FaZe Clan's own venture into the stock market saw it peak at $20 per share.
More recently, "Baby Shark" creator Pinkfong went public in Korea.

Housenbold clearly has big ambitions for where Beast Industries is heading, as back in September 2025, he told Bloomberg how Donaldson wants it to become the next Disney. Back then, the Beast Industries CEO explained how MrBeast is his very own Mickey Mouse, with the company hoping to evolve into an entertainment conglomerate: "There’s such a bigger opportunity here than just being a YouTuber.
“Jimmy will always be the cornerstone, but Jimmy doesn’t scale. He already filmed 26, 27, 28 days a month."
He even went as far as talking about a MrBeast cinematic universe to rival Disney's MCU, having put together a writer's room that's sketched out a 'world bible'. Donaldson, Housenbold, and Beast Industries are poised to boom, and even though there have been a few stumbles along the way with lawsuits against some of his businesses, Housenbold isn't going to let this stop him as he concluded: "From day one, we’re a global media company, and now we’re working on monetizing that viewership, that fandom, and that trust we built."
With Donaldson's grand plans for a mobile network and financial services, a much-hyped IPO could be the ideal way to generate the funds needed to expand the Beastverse like never before.
