Pavlovski said that the upcoming Rumble Wallet will become an instrument to help content makers outside the advertising revenue paradigm. He stated that there is a lot of confusion regarding payments especially for creators and crypto could be a better way of payment.
Pavlovski also suggested that the wallet would be ‘bigger and more than you think,’ which meant that the project might have more to it than simply acting as an elementary wallet. Further details are yet to be availed in the interview that is set to be conducted by financial content creator, Matt Kohrs.
A couple of minutes after Pavlovski’s post, Tether’s CEO Paolo Ardoino reacted to it and shared it with the comment “A wallet for the people,” which confirms that Tether was an official participant. This is a positive aspect of the venture because Tether’s stablecoin system will underlie the wallet’s actual transactions.
