Rumble Is Launching a Crypto Wallet Designed for Content Creators

Rumble, the video-sharing platform known for its conservative content and outspoken CEO, is making a major move into crypto with plans to launch a digital wallet designed specifically for content creators.

The non-custodial wallet, which is still under development, is expected to launch by Q3 2025 and will initially offer support for Bitcoin (BTC) and Tether’s USD stablecoin (USDT), paving the way for fans to directly tip and subscribe to their favorite creators.

The product is being developed in collaboration with Tether, the company behind the world’s largest stablecoin.

Speaking at the Bitcoin Conference in Miami, Chris Pavlovski, CEO of the streaming platform, positioned the upcoming “Rumble Wallet” as a coinbase-like product with a focus on non-custodial storage, particularly for Bitcoin and stablecoins.

“We’re launching a non-custodial wallet later this year, Q3 is the goal,” Pavlovski said.

“We’re going to be launching a Bitcoin and Tether wallet, so you’ll be able to send BTC and USDT on chain, non-custodially, with the goal being to allow fans to tip and subscribe to their favorite creators.”

He added that future versions of the wallet may include support for Tether Gold (XAUT), which could appeal to creators in emerging Web3 ecosystems.

“We want to be offering creators a way to monetize without needing any third party,” he said.

Earlier this year, Rumble disclosed that it had added Bitcoin to its balance sheet and secured a $775 million investment from Tether, granting the company a major stake in the platform through a large Class A share acquisition.

Despite its crypto momentum, which also includes plans for a blockchain-based video streaming token, Rumble’s stock hasn’t fully caught investor enthusiasm, with shares still down over 40% year-to-date. But the company is betting its blockchain strategy will eventually reshape the economics of online content.
