MrBeast’s alleged YouTube earnings leak, fans shocked: 'Less Than I Imagined'

Leaked screenshot reveals MrBeast's alleged monthly YouTube revenue, leaving fans shocked and questioning its accuracy

Jimmy ‘MrBeast’ Donaldson, YouTube’s biggest creator with over 363 million subscribers, has reportedly had his monthly earnings leaked, leaving fans stunned at the alleged numbers.

According to a leaked screenshot of MrBeast’s YouTube Studio page, his main channel amassed 2.688 billion views and over 162 million watch hours in just 28 days. The leak suggests his estimated total revenue for the last month is over $4.2 million, equating to nearly $50 million per year from his main channel alone.

While impressive, many fans expected the number to be higher given MrBeast’s massive global audience. One user reacted, “That is not as much as I thought… is this off just one video?” while another added, “Less than I imagined, to be honest.”

Others questioned the authenticity of the leak. A co-founder of ViewStats, a platform that tracks YouTube metrics, and a member of MrBeast’s “Ideas & Thumbnails Team” dismissed the screenshot as fake. However, he admitted it was "close enough" to the real figures, noting that "real-time numbers and view abbreviations" needed to be adjusted.

The alleged leak was shared on X (formerly Twitter), writing: "MrBeast’s YouTube analytics have allegedly leaked, showing over $4,000,000 in monthly revenue." MrBeast has yet to respond to the claims, but given his multiple highly successful YouTube channels, it’s estimated that his total earnings from YouTube alone exceed $100 million annually.

Beyond YouTube, Donaldson has built an expanding business empire, including Feastables Chocolate and Lunchly, a meal kit venture with Logan Paul and KSI’s Prime Hydration.

While the leaked numbers remain unverified, there’s no doubt that MrBeast continues to dominate YouTube, not only in subscribers but also in revenue generation.
