Video platform Rumble (RUM) plans to launch Bitcoin tipping for its 51 million monthly users by mid-December, expanding the ways creators can earn directly from their audiences.
The new feature, developed in partnership with Tether, allows viewers to send BTC tips through an in-app digital wallet. This was announced at the Plan Forum ₿ in Lugano, Switzerland.
The company said it was still testing the system. The first BTC tip was sent to Canadian content creator David Freiheit.
