Tether has integrated its U.S.-domiciled USA₮ stablecoin with Rumble Wallet, enabling creators on the video platform to receive earnings in a dollar-backed digital asset. USA₮ launched in late January 2026 through Anchorage Digital Bank, with reserves managed by Cantor Fitzgerald. The token was designed to meet domestic regulatory standards as lawmakers advanced the GENIUS Act, tightening requirements for offshore stablecoin issuers.
The integration enables creators to earn, store, and transfer digital dollars within Rumble’s ecosystem without relying on traditional payment rails. USA₮ now joins existing wallet support for Bitcoin, USD₮, and XAU₮, with the rollout powered by Tether’s open-source Wallet Development Kit, which allows platforms to embed self-custodial stablecoin functionality directly into their products. The toolkit is designed to support compliant digital dollar payments while preserving user control over keys and funds.
Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski said the addition of USA₮ expands global payout options for creators seeking alternatives to banks and centralized payment processors. Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino described the move as part of a broader effort to build open financial infrastructure aligned with creator independence.
