Leading stablecoin Tether and short video platform Rumble have announced a partnership, officially launching the Rumble Wallet project. This wallet product primarily targets creators and users on the platform, offering self-custodied crypto payment capabilities.

What does this mean? In simple terms, creators can directly send, receive, and manage crypto assets within the platform ecosystem, breaking traditional centralized payment restrictions. Tether provides the technical support for the stablecoin side, while Rumble integrates at the application layer to enhance user experience.

From a market perspective, such collaborations are becoming a trend—large application ecosystems are embracing self-custodied wallets, which not only give users control over their assets but also expand the platform’s Web3 application boundaries. As a core tool for on-chain payments, stablecoins are continuously deepening their application scenarios.

Tether is causing trouble again, but this wave of Rumble is indeed interesting... Creators can directly hold their assets, which is true control. The Rumble wallet has launched, and stablecoin payments are finally entering the short video ecosystem... Speaking of which, with more of these collaborations, traditional payments are really going to be eliminated. What about the risks of self-custody? Has anyone thought about that? Going all-in with such high risk. The future of Web3 needs to be built this way... Take it slow. USDT is everywhere, and this time, it's really a guaranteed win.

Tether is expanding its territory again, this time targeting short video creators' wallets... Basically, it's trying to bypass traditional payments. Self-custody sounds very free, but how many creators can actually use it? Rumble's move is good; the ecosystem is being complemented.

Stablecoins are finally entering short videos. Creators can withdraw directly without going through the platform's cut. It feels like a change is coming.

Stablecoins are really starting to compete in the application layer. Rumble's move is quite interesting—why not let creators directly self-host their earnings?

Data shows that Tether's stablecoin share is still increasing, although this ecosystem wallet integration solution... The hourly gas fees are the real obstacle. Can creators really save costs? Let's wait and see the specific data.

Rumble's move is impressive, directly providing creators with a token payout channel, saving the hassle of third-party solutions. Self-custody truly changes the game. Creators can now directly control their money, which is what Web3 should look like, unlike some platforms that just talk but don't act. Tether, this "catfish," has stirred up the short video ecosystem. The use of stablecoins is increasing, and it might really change the payment landscape in the future. However, Rumble is still a bit small in scale. Can it sustain itself... It still depends on subsequent user adoption. This is the right thing to do—returning power to creators. Twitter and YouTube should have learned this long ago.

Rumble this move is pretty good, creators can directly withdraw USDT, saving a lot of middle steps. This is the way it should be. To be honest, the use of stablecoins is becoming more and more widespread. It feels like online payments will be like this in the future. Wait, is the Rumble wallet reliable? Will self-custody be too high a threshold... Web3 is the trend, but truly implementable projects are still scarce. Creators benefit the most. They can finally manage their income faster and more freely. This logic makes sense.

Rumble's move is indeed innovative, directly integrating the payment layer so creators no longer have to be exploited by platforms. Tether's strategy is well executed; more and more stablecoin scenarios are being implemented, and the USDT moat has deepened. Honestly, this is the endgame of decentralized payments—integrating wallets and applications. Only by playing like this can we survive in the future. Everyone is betting on self-custody wallets, but only a few can truly make it understandable for ordinary people. Can Rumble do it? Question mark. This is called positioning—major ecosystems are rushing to integrate Web3, and latecomer projects will face greater challenges.

Rumble this move is pretty good, creators can withdraw directly without being blocked by the platform anymore Really curious to see how USDT will be used on short video platforms, is this the rhythm to take down PayPal? Self-custody wallets are gradually turning from concept to reality, interesting By the way, is Rumble's user base enough? Could it just be a small circle of self-entertainment? Stablecoins have truly found practical use cases this time, not just trading pairs If this partnership really takes off, the creator ecosystem will be turned upside down Web3 infrastructure is finally filling in the gaps, optimistic about this direction

Rumble is launching a wallet? Now creators can truly control their assets without having to rely on the platform's favor. Tether's strategic deployment is on point; stablecoins are the ultimate payment tool, and other cryptocurrencies are just fleeting clouds. By the way, self-custody wallets might still be quite challenging for beginners... How to educate users? Web3 payments are the right path; it all depends on whether Rumble can truly retain the creator ecosystem. With self-custody 🔒, control is in your hands, no longer getting exploited by centralized platforms. This collaboration is actually copying what Twitter is trying to do, but Rumble might respond faster. Stablecoins + short video content platform, a perfect match—clear money and assets.
