GREENVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA: The uncontested YouTube king James Stephen Donaldson aka MrBeast, who has an astounding 185 million subscribers on the platform, took to X to discuss the success of Indian YouTube channel T-Series.
T-Series is the YouTube channel with the most subscribers. It currently has amassed 250 million subscribers on the video-sharing platform. In response to the channels' popularity, MrBeast dubbed it the channel's "last milestone."
MrBeast teased T-Series on X
T-Series recently announced that it has achieved 250 million subscribers on YouTube, recalling its journey of becoming 'most followed channel' through a video. An X user shared the post on the platform stating, "Well guys, it happened, the first Indian YouTube Channel, T-Series, hit 250M subscribers."
Responding to the post, MrBeast teased T-Series, "That’s the last major milestone they’ll be the first to hit."
MrBeast's comment attracted many responses. A fan commented believing that T-Series' subscribers are fake, "With that view count on a 250m account, it’s pretty clear almost all their followers are bots."
Another fan motivated MrBeast saying, "That would boost your growth by another notch."
The third commentator added, "Let's see beast, I want you on top!"
MrBeast challenged T-Series
T-Series currently holds the top spot on YouTube, having overtaken PewDiePie in 2019. The fierce online competition began in October 2018 and lasted until the following year.
Despite the competition, PewDiePie held the position of the most subscribed independent creator until MrBeast surpassed him. Despite all of this conflict with MrBeast overtaking PewDiePie, the two YouTube stars are still friendly and even got together in Japan to allegedly shoot a video together.
On August 5, MrBeast tweeted in response to this analogy that he would go to war with the other station to exact retribution "for PewDiePie." In less than 10 hours, MrBeast tweeted, "I'm doing this for Pewdiepie," garnered millions of views and several comments.
So it remains to be seen if MrBeast would be able to survive this competition. However, supporters of MrBeast have already came together in the hopes that he will defeat his longstanding rival.
