MrBeast Promotes Step Banking App With No Sign of Crypto Return
Edited by Steinar Vigdel Kolnes, Editor, Oslo
MrBeast is promoting Step as a banking app, but Bitcoin.com News reports no sign of a crypto return despite Bitmine’s earlier investment in Beast Industries.
YouTube creator MrBeast is promoting Step in his videos, presenting it as a new banking app. According to Bitcoin.com News, the app shows no indication that it has resumed offering crypto services.
The promotion comes nine months after Bitmine, a major ether treasury company, invested $200 million in Beast Industries, MrBeast’s company. That investment had fueled speculation about potential crypto ties.
The source points to an Oct. 17 video featuring a couple attempting to lose weight as one example of the promotion. Despite earlier expectations, the reported rollout offers no evidence of a return to crypto.
