More than 11 million people had registered interest before the show, putting it near the 12.8 million concurrent-viewer record set by Bruno Mars’s Roblox event. The experience remained replayable until 1 August, while bbno$ pledged his revenue share, alongside proceeds from in-game skins and items, to the UK-based Internet Watch Foundation; a donation link was also due to appear during the concert.
