According to the companies, the wallet is intended to provide a platform-native payment infrastructure that allows creators and users to hold and transfer digital assets without relying on traditional financial intermediaries.

At launch, the wallet supports Bitcoin (BTC), Tether USD (USDt), and Tether Gold (XAUt).
Tether USAt is expected to be added in the coming weeks. The wallet is non-custodial, meaning users retain control of their private keys rather than entrusting funds to Rumble or another centralized custodian.
Rumble Wallet is built using Tether’s Wallet Development Kit (WDK), marking the first live deployment of the open-source toolkit.
The WDK is designed to allow platforms to deploy self-custodial wallets while preserving user control over assets.
The wallet enables peer-to-peer payments and creator tipping without routing transactions through banks, credit card networks, or advertising platforms.
Payments are integrated directly into the Rumble application, providing creators with an additional monetization option alongside advertising and subscription-based revenue.
“Rumble represents free speech and liberty the same way that cryptocurrency and a decentralized internet represent freedom, and Rumble Wallet is the natural combination of those things,” said Chris Pavlovski, founder and CEO of Rumble.
Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino added “at Tether, we champion technologies that promote freedom, decentralization, and the fundamental right to free speech. Rumble Wallet brings those ideals together into one product that will give tens of millions of users more control than any platform has offered before, even in key markets such as the United States.”
