TikTok is a funny little app. People will go viral for the wildest things and this time round, it’s for acting like an NPC on TikTok live all while making an absolute bucket load of money.

An NPC is a non-player video game character, so often those random characters walking around the street while you’re in a car chase on GTA 5.

TikTokers have been chasing the bag by earning “tips” from viewers who have been sending virtual coins to the creators, which can be converted into real money. During the TikTok lives, when a gift is sent to a creator they will say a phrase or do an action over and over again.

But how did this all start? Well, meet Pinkydoll. The TikToker who made the trend go viral and has been earning an obscene amount of money from it all.
