Together, the two will hold roughly 45% of TikTok\u2019s U.S. entity. With other U.S. investors involved, American companies are expected to own more than 65% of the business.<\/p>\n\n<p>TikTok\u2019s Chinese parent, ByteDance, will remain a significant shareholder, keeping a 19.9% stake in the U.S. arm, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/technology\/2025\/sep\/26\/iktok-abu-dhabi-royal-family-stake-trump-deal-mgx\">the Guardian<\/a>. That arrangement appears designed to ease concerns in Washington, where President Trump has repeatedly pressed for tighter scrutiny of the app\u2019s ownership and data practices.<\/p>\n\n<p>MGX\u2019s role in the deal adds another layer of intrigue. Earlier this year, the fund bought $2 billion worth of USD1, a stablecoin launched by Donald Trump\u2019s World Liberty Financial. The token is backed by U.S. Treasuries, cash and equivalents, and is pitched as a way for people to access financial services without banks. MGX has already deployed USD1 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coindesk.com\/business\/2025\/05\/01\/world-liberty-s-stablecoin-will-be-used-to-close-mgx-s-usd2b-binance-investment-eric-trump\">in its investment in crypto exchange Binance<\/a>, signaling its willingness to use the stablecoin in large-scale deals.<\/p>\n\n<p>For MGX, the TikTok stake provides a high-profile foothold in the U.S. social media market, where the platform\u2019s influence over culture and advertising continues to expand.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MGX, a fund backed by Dubai\u2019s ruling
