Ever felt like spending a ridiculous amount of Fortnite gold bars all at once? Well, now it's possible. For some unknown reason, in Fortnite Season 7, players can interact with NPCs to tip the Battle Bus driver a whopping 4,000 gold bars.
Generally, players thank the Battle Bus driver for free while jumping off. However, it would seem that Fortnite is now allowing players to once again thank the bus driver by sending a very generous tip.

Fortnite's Battle Bus driver must be swimming in gold bars
So, by now, readers must be asking, "Why tip 4,000 gold bars?" The answer? No one knows. According to multiple Fortnite leakers and content creators, no one really knows the purpose of tipping the bus driver in Fortnite.
In fact, a player did manage to tip 4,000 gold bars after grinding for over two hours in Fortnite Rumble, and the results were less than satisfactory. While many speculated that there's some sort of unlockable secret, or perhaps a secret quest to be completed upon tipping, nothing of that sort happens.

What happened after tipping the bus driver?
To no one's surprise, nothing significant happened after dropping the tip, besides two things. Upon tipping 4,000 gold bars, the player's name was shown in the kill feed, and this sound was played simultaneously.
It looks like the Battle Bus driver is reciprocating the generous tip with a special honk. All in all, tipping the bus driver is a massive flex that players can do in-game. Sadly for them, though, the name appears on the kill feed for a moment before disappearing into oblivion.
On the flip side though, players can complete two milestones for spending gold, which should give them 24,000 experience points. This will be useful as the experience points will help towards leveling the Battle Pass. However, apart from the above-mentioned details, there's nothing much else to gain from tipping the driver.
Perhaps in the future, Epic Games may reward players with some in-game cosmetics related to the Battle Bus. However, as of now, given how hard gold bars are to collect in-game, players will be better off spending them on exotics, weapon upgrades, rifts, prop disguises, and supply drops.
