Just a few weeks after extending the deadline for sale for the third time, President Donald Trump announced Sunday that he had found the buyer for Tickets’ US activities.
The popular social media app is under intense pressure because of the passage of a law in 2021, which will have to face its Chinese parent company, Biddance, the platform or face a nationwide ban. This law arises from bilateral anxiety in Washington that the Chinese government can access American users’ data or use the app to influence people’s views.
“We have a buyer for the ticket,” Trump told Fox News Host Maria Bartiromo in his “Sunday Morning Future” program. He suggested that Beijing still needed approval. “
When pressed for more information, Trump was unclear. He also added that “this is a group of very rich people” and said that he would publish their names “about two weeks”. He did not provide any additional information.

This declaration comes after intense discussion and political strategic period. The Divest-or-Disciplinary Law, which was passed by the Congress in 2021, gave by a 270-day window to sell Tickets to Bitedance. This period was extended for the third time in mid -June, the new date was pushed to September 17, and allowed the app to continue access to 170 million American users.
According to several reports, an agreement reached in early April. The deal was distinguished by Techotok’s US activities from the bidance, including a group of American investors led by Tech Agency Oracle, and the resource director Blackstone and entrepreneur Michael Dale participated in the majority. However, the transaction has been postponed after Trump announced the new wave of steep trade tariffs, especially China.
Recently, in early June, the two countries agreed with a “general structure” to normalize trade relations, Beijing seemed to be more interested in approving certain exports. It can clear a way for sensitive algorithms and technology that includes tickets to include sales.
Despite the geo -political turmoil, the popularity of Tickets in the United States remains immense. The social network makes 170 million users with 7.5 million business accounts, from large and medium -sized initiatives to small and medium -sized initiatives. According to the expert website Appfigger, Tikatok is currently just behind the ChatzPT, the second most downloaded app in the United States on Android phones.
What happens next – whether Trump’s mystery buyer is real or effective – the remines are unclear. However, as the September deadline came forward, the political and economic part of the ticket is increasing.
