The 'Finger on the App' contest is the latest endeavor from YouTube personality Jimmy "MrBeast" Donaldson in partnership with Internet collective MSCHF that will offer participants the chance to win up to $25,000. The contest works by having participants downloading the namesake app and participating once the clock starts. Users must keep their finger on the screen at all times and move it according to the instructions in order to stay in the game, while the stakes continue to increase all the while.
The 'Finger on the App' contest game will take place starting Tuesday, June 30 at 3pm EST and can be entered by anyone who thinks they have the stamina to make it to the end to wind some serious cash.
