Ludwig’s YouTube Play Button Theft from MrBeast’s Biggest Video Gets Him in Trouble

After taking MrBeast’s biggest video’s YouTube play button, which had JaidenAnimations’ name on it, Ludwig states that he faced consequences from the YouTube star’s team.

On July 13, 2024, MrBeast released his ’50 YouTubers Battle for $1,000,000′ video featuring some of the most popular internet personalities competing for the grand prize.

JaidenAnimations emerged as the winner of the challenge and plans to utilize the $1M prize in the near future to send her over 13M subscribers to art school.

In order to enhance the video set, MrBeast made an arrangement with YouTube to produce replica play buttons for every participant… and Ludwig later admitted to taking the one with Jaiden’s name on it after the video was published.

During an episode of The Yard podcast, he disclosed that MrBeast’s team was not particularly pleased with him after he donated the diamond play button to CDawGVA’s yearly charity auction.

“I was unaware of their agreement with YouTube, so I jokingly took Jaiden’s play button,”he explained. “On the day the video was released, I announced to my chat that I had the play button and planned to auction it off at Connor’s event.”

“After being away for the entire day, I returned to find that my phone was buzzing non-stop. It was MrBeast’s team, informing me that I cannot sell the item due to a legal contract that was signed. Unfortunately, this means I am unable to auction it off at CDawgVA’s charity event.”

The topic is introduced at 36:37 in the following paragraph.

Fortunately, Jaiden had already intended to contribute her own personal diamond play button to the auction, ensuring that it would still be available. As of now, the current bid for Jaiden’s donation stands at an impressive $14,200.

As of this writing, a top bid of over $30,000 has been placed on a gaming session with Twitch star Pokimane, which is also one of the items available in the charity auction.
