How Rumble Cloud serves as a foundational pillar of Chris Pavlovski’s freedom-first strategy.
October 2025 marked the fourth anniversary of the world’s leading technologists gathered in Lugano, Switzerland for the annual Plan ₿ Forum. The premier European conference was created by Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino, who along with Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski and 4,000 participants from across 64 countries came to Lugano to promote the use of Bitcoin and blockchain technology.
Key takeaways from the main stage included insights from Pavlovski and Ardoino, who were joined by MoonPay CEO Ivan Soto-Wright. The three CEOs came together to discuss their vision and also their collaboration on Rumble Wallet, the industry-changing non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet that integrates with Rumble’s “Freedom-First” ecosystem.
- Rumble Wallet is the first wallet built using Tether’s Wallet Development Kit
- Rumble Wallet will enable fans and creators to store, send, buy, and sell USDT (Tether), BTC (Bitcoin), and XAUT (Tether Gold)
- MoonPay will seamlessly handle the purchasing and selling assets from within the wallet
- Creators will be able to accept Tether, Bitcoin, or Tether Gold tips directly on their channels and livestreams
- Rumble fans will be able to directly tip creators from their wallet
Pavlovski showed how with the addition of Rumble Wallet, Rumble has constructed four strategic and tactical pillars to ensure Rumble’s core mission of securing digital freedoms:
- Rumble Wallet secures the freedom to transact without intermediaries or fear of debanking
- Rumble Video, including Rumble Studio, secures freedom of speech, enabling a voice for all creators
- Rumble Advertising Center secures freedom of reach by providing day-one revenue to creators
- Rumble Cloud protects the freedom to build, secures digital infrastructure, and protects businesses from the whims of Big Tech cancel-culture
Tether’s $775M investment into Rumble’s freedom-first ecosystem of over 47 million monthly active users demonstrated an alignment in their vision and execution. Ardoino was impressed with Pavlovski’s determination to defend creators in the face of political pressure from countries hostile to freedom of expression. Soto-Wright re-iterated that Rumble’s track record also aligned with MoonPay’s mission to make buying and selling Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies easy and available to everyone.
Rumble Cloud also offers the better deal in cloud infrastructure. Rumble Cloud provides operators with robust, scalable, and reliable cloud infrastructure such as VMs, object storage, and networking, entry-level developer pricing, and all-inclusive monthly billing with no additional hidden fees such as ingress/egress data fees, transfer fees, or usage fees.
While Rumble has been supporting free speech since 2013, its growth in the past few years has culminated in a mature, battle-tested infrastructure and unwavering leadership that enables its success in the face of cyber and even political attacks. This is why TRON DAO collaborated with Rumble Cloud on its cloud infrastructure initiatives. “TRON was built on the belief that the internet should be open, censorship-resistant, and owned by its users,” said Justin Sun, Founder of TRON. “Collaborating with Rumble Cloud reinforces that commitment—giving us more freedom to build”.
