AI Summary

The video documents a 30-day experiment where the creator attempts to earn money through TikTok Live Interactive Games and NPC cat streams. Despite numerous technical issues, account restrictions, and low viewership, the creator managed to earn a total of $110, though net profit was only $17.50 after expenses. The experiment highlights the challenges and potential of passive income streams on TikTok.

[00:01]
Experiment Start

The creator began testing TikTok Live Interactive Games as a passive income stream, earning $60 in the first week despite initial problems.

[00:40]
TikTok Live Interactive Games Explained

TikTok accounts stream games like Minecraft or GTA V, allowing viewers to participate via gifts. Some accounts earn hundreds of dollars daily with 24/7 streams.

[01:05]
First Major Problem: Stream Restrictions

The creator's livestreams were restricted after 10-20 minutes, reducing viewership. To fix this, a US TikTok account was purchased, but it initially failed to activate TikTok Live Studio.

[02:24]
Discovery of NPC Cat Streams

While searching for solutions, the creator found an NPC cat stream earning €10.50 in 10 minutes (after TikTok's 70% cut), equating to €60 per hour passively.

[03:43]
US Account Activation Success

After two days of repeated attempts, the US account finally activated TikTok Live Studio. However, connecting the game required contacting Discord support.

[04:10]
First Stream: No Viewers

The first stream ran for two hours without restrictions but had only one viewer who left quickly. No gifts were sent.

[05:30]
Tutorial for NPC Cat Stream Found

A YouTube tutorial showed how to create a viral NPC cat livestream. The creator set up the stream using a Steam tool, ChatGPT, and 11 Labs for voice generation.

[06:11]
Tool Limitations

The free version of the tool allowed only five different sounds/actions simultaneously, so the creator selected the five most common gifts.

[07:01]
Successful NPC Cat Stream

Using a different TikTok account, the first NPC cat stream attracted immediate viewers and gifts. The stream ran for two hours without restrictions, earning over 500 diamonds from 170+ viewers.

[08:11]
Pro Version and Higher Earnings

The creator received a free Pro version of the tool, adding 30 gift sounds. A two-hour stream had 4000+ viewers, 270+ gift senders, and over 1100 diamonds earned.

[09:18]
US Account Struggles

The US account still had no viewers, likely due to bots. The creator decided to grow a new US account to 10,000 followers, requiring a 30-day wait for TikTok Live Studio eligibility.

[10:54]
Total Earnings and Net Profit

Total earnings from TikTok livestreams: $110. After expenses (account purchase, tool subscriptions), net profit was only $17.50.

[11:35]
Future Potential

With a stable account and daily streams, the creator estimates $400-$600 per month from NPC cat streams, potentially $2000-$3000 without restrictions.

The experiment shows that while TikTok Live NPC cat streams can generate income, success heavily depends on account quality and avoiding restrictions. The creator plans to grow a new US account and continue testing.

[00:01] started testing one of the strangest business models ever: strangest business models ever: several other accounts, I wanted to build a nearly passive income stream.

[00:14] experiment, I was able to earn my first earnings of almost $60 within a week. However, since I problems, I did n't give up. For

[00:28] another three weeks, I tried to earn money with TikTok's active games. Whether and how I succeeded, I'll show you in this video. But let me briefly explain the plan. For

[00:40] a few months now, there have been so- called TikTok Live Interactive Games. TikTok accounts stream various games like Minecraft, GTA V, or even custom-programmed games. Viewers can

[00:52] participate in the game and interact with the stream by sending gifts. There are some TikTok accounts where these streams run 24/7, and they do earn several hundred dollars a day. That's exactly why I... In

[01:05] my last video, I bought access to various interactive games, but unfortunately, I ran into a major problem: my livestreams were always restricted after 10 to 20 minutes at the latest. This meant they were

[01:17] and my viewership plummeted. solve this problem, last resort was to buy a US

[01:30] these supposedly have fewer restrictions. This account did restrictions. This account did TikTok Live Studio, but after a five-day wait, it finally worked. My

[01:43] US TikTok account met all the requirements for TikTok Live Studio, and I was more than ready to start my first stream. However, there was one tiny problem: my account met all the requirements,

[01:56] but every time I tried to activate TikTok Live Studio, I just got an error message, and nothing happened. When it still wasn't working a few I searched on TikTok and YouTube to see

[02:09] if anyone else was experiencing this issue. This happens and I wonder if there's a solution for it, but even after hours of searching, I didn't really get anywhere. I did had the exact same problem, but there did

[02:24] through TikTok and came across something completely new that I had One of the most well-known TikTok Interactive Games pages, CBC, was streaming, but

[02:36] this time not a game, but an alleged NPC cat that interacts with users' gifts and makes various sayings. He had over 1000 viewers simultaneously on this livestream, and

[02:48] I watched the whole thing for 10 minutes and watched the whole thing for 10 minutes and subtract the 70% TikTok cut, we arrive at earnings of

[03:03] €10.50 that he could have earned in those 10 minutes. That means if the stream continued in the same way, he would earn €60 every hour without having to do anything. When I realized this, I knew

[03:16] how these livestreams worked account. So I sat down at my PC again and searched for tutorials showing how to create an NPC cat stream. But

[03:29] even after what felt like hours of searching, I couldn't find anything suitable. later. But first, let's get back to our US TikTok account. After trying to verify my

[03:43] account for the TikTok Live Studio every two to three hours, it finally worked after two days, was activated as if there had never been a problem. Since you can only connect the to one TikTok account at a time, I had to

[03:57] contact the game's Discord support to get it updated. Unfortunately, it was already quite late, so the update wasn't done until the next day. I just had to set up the stream briefly, and then I could finally

[04:10] and then I could finally and I was hoping the first viewers would join right away, but in my case, it meant waiting and waiting and waiting until, after 20

[04:25] minutes, the first viewer finally joined the stream, only to leave again shortly after. Since I was already itching to train, I that over the next hour or two, the first

[04:38] active live viewers might join and that some gifts might be sent. When good news and bad news. The good news was that my stream had run for two hours and hadn't been restricted by

[04:51] however, was that joined the stream during those two hours, and not a single gift had been sent. After that, I tried all sorts of games and

[05:04] also tested different countries with my VPN. result: there were no restrictions, but also no viewers. In addition, my purchased account had

[05:17] strongly suggests that it was very poor bots. These were deleted after just a few days, probably by TikTok. Just when I

[05:30] I discovered a video on my YouTube homepage that was a tutorial on creating a viral TikTok NPC cat livestream. Suddenly, hope and motivation were completely restored,

[05:45] and started downloading and setting up everything necessary for the stream. This involved getting necessary for the stream. This involved getting game/tool ​​on Steam and

[05:59] done, I had to adjust some settings and then, with the help of chatgbt and 11 Labs, I was able to generate the different texts that my cat would say when sending gifts. The whole thing was

[06:11] 's definitely doable for everyone. One of the last steps was One of the last steps was

[06:23] connect the tool to your TikTok account, and as soon as you go live, it recognizes when gifts are sent and then plays the corresponding sounds. The catch, however, was that With the free version, you could only activate up to five

[06:36] different sounds and actions simultaneously. This meant I had to choose the five most frequently sent gifts so the cat wouldn't always read the same text. In the

[06:48] that a unique sound played for the four most frequently sent gifts, like a rose, and the same text played for all the others. Since my US account unfortunately wasn't getting any viewers,

[07:01] again on my other TikTok account, as I always got a lot of viewers relatively quickly there. After about an hour of setup, I was able to start my first NPC cat stream, and almost immediately

[07:14] the first viewers came in and sent gifts right away. Everything was running first 20 live viewers relatively quickly. Then, suddenly, out of quite late at that point, I decided to stop for the day and try

[07:30] again the next day. When I woke up the next morning, I was extremely motivated for some reason and had a successful day, so I sat down at my PC immediately. I changed a

[07:43] stream's background video, and started the stream. Almost miraculously, it ran for two hours without limitations. During that time, I earned over 500 diamonds from more

[07:58] than 170 different viewers. Additionally, the stream had over 2600 different viewers throughout that period, and I gained over 60 new followers. Because it worked so well, I

[08:11] really wanted to try the Pro version of the tool to see how much more if my cat could say more than just five sayings. After briefly messaging the it turned out he was also German and had even seen my first video

[08:25] on this topic about TikTok Live Games. So, he kindly So, he kindly course, I immediately started adding

[08:37] new sounds and texts for about 30 different gifts so my NPC cat would have even more to offer. When I started the stream and went to the gym for two hours, I worked out with almost everyone. I hadn't expected this, but

[08:49] my stream had over 4000 viewers over those two hours, of whom over 270 different users sent gifts worth over 1100 diamonds to me. And all this

[09:02] stream did get restricted after about two and a half hours, but since the restriction only such a big problem anymore. Even after that, I was able to

[09:18] sometimes with up to 70 live viewers, completely without any restrictions lot of different users sent me gifts, and they were always very inexpensive. Since everything went so well, I naturally also tried my NPC cut stream

[09:31] on my US TikTok account. However, viewers who usually left the stream immediately. But since a really good US TikTok livestream account, I searched again for an

[09:47] unbotted US TikTok account, and I noticed because they used to be sold at bargain prices on the marketplaces where I'm active. marketplaces where I'm active.

[10:00] none of these TikTok accounts meet my criteria, and those that do are really expensive. For example, this 100k TikTok page costs over $1500, even though it doesn't have that much engagement and the

[10:13] Creativity Beta program isn't even available. The other pages that were for sale were n't an option for me initially because they were either too Therefore, I finally decided to

[10:26] just grow my own US TikTok page to 10,000 followers, as that will However, since I have to wait another 30 days to even meet all the requirements for the TikTok Live Studio, it unfortunately seems like it will be a while before I

[10:42] unfortunately seems like it will be a while before I I earn this month with TikTok Interactive Games, even though my other TikTok account... Although my account was still frequently restricted, and I did

[10:54] n't stream as often after the first week due to all these problems, I was still able to earn over $50 with a few NPC cat streams within two to three days and two to three days and

[11:10] Adding the $60 from the first week brings my total earnings from TikTok livestreams this month to $110. However, after

[11:23] income is only $ 17.50. I've already contacted the seller of the US account, who will most likely refund my money. who will most likely refund my money.

[11:35] Personally, I think the The $50 I earned from the two to three days of NPC cat streams is

[11:47] significantly cheaper than Interactive Games, and the monthly fees are even lower. Expenses would be only €20 instead of €50, and with daily streams that you can turn on and off intermittently, you could definitely

[12:01] earn $400 to $600 per month. Of course, it would be a real boon to a real boon to not to be restricted, and you

[12:15] earn five to ten times as much. Feel free to let me know your opinion on whether you think it's worth it in the comments. I'm going to log into my new US TikTok account now and try to get it approved for the

[12:28] TikTok Live Studio in 30 days. If you liked the video and don't n't forget to subscribe to the channel and like the video. interested in how you can currently earn a lot of
