Video platform Rumble (RUM) plans to launch bitcoin tips to its 51 million monthly users in mid-December, expanding how creators can earn directly from their audience.
Developed in collaboration with Tether, the new feature allows viewers to send BTC tips through a digital wallet built into the app. It was announced during the Plan ₿ Forum in Lugano, Switzerland.
The company said it is still testing the system. The first BTC tip was sent to Canadian content creator David Freiheit.
