Tim Stokely, founder of OnlyFans, has initiated a bid to acquire TikTok's US operations from ByteDance, partnering with his startup Zoop and The Hbar Foundation. This move, driven by a new US law mandating the sale of TikTok, aims to prioritize creators with improved revenue-sharing models. The White House is overseeing the negotiations, with President Trump reviewing multiple offers, including unexpected bids from Amazon and Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison. As the April 5 deadline looms, the outcome could transform the social media landscape.
