Logan Paul is one of the internet\u2019s most famous social media personalities. After getting his start on Vine, Paul translated his over-the-top comedy to YouTube, where he has gained a whopping 23.2 million subscribers. While his career has experienced some major highs and lows, Paul is seeing some of the biggest growth in his life as an entertainer thus far, having just fought Floyd \u2018Money\u2019 Mayweather in a boxing exhibition match that shook the entire internet. However, Paul\u2019s YouTube grind has suddenly come to a shrieking halt. Two months after his bout with Mayweather, Paul has yet to upload a single video, and instead seems to be focusing on NFTs. In fact, the star received a $700,000 offer on a CryptoPunk \u2014 a unique NFT pixel portrait \u2014 earlier this month, but turned down the offer to turn a bigger profit later on down the road. UPDATE: was offered $700k but decided not to sell https:\/\/t.co\/T84TGQY9xq \u2014 Logan Paul (@LoganPaul) August 3, 2021 Considering his recent obsession with all things cryptocurrency and business, it isn\u2019t a huge leap to think that Paul might be making a shift in his career, with some fans even speculating that he\u2019s taking an extended hiatus or leaving the platform altogether. Paul addressed these concerns during an episode of his imPaulsive podcast on August 18, claiming that he\u2019s not taking a hiatus, but simply shifting his creative energy in a new direction. \u201cI think I\u2019m gonna upload on YouTube soon, but something a little more value-based,\u201d he explained. \u201cIt would just be me going over NFT projects that I think are the coolest and most promising. \u2026I have a lot to show, as well. I do like the idea of being a pioneer in the space.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s not a hiatus, I\u2019m just working in different ways, dude,\u201d Paul continued. \u201cI\u2019m kind of on the vibe right now, where if it don\u2019t make money, it don\u2019t make sense. I\u2019m coming more and more into my own as a businessman. Like a true business person. My creative energy that I was putting into YouTube videos\u2026 is now just gone all into business.\u201d Luckily for fans, it doesn\u2019t seem like Logan is abandoning his roots as a YouTuber\u2026 but it looks like his normal content might take a turn to focus on things that are based on dollar signs, rather than jumping into canals in Italy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
