Rumble Introduces Non-Custodial Bitcoin Wallet Amid Space Tourism Buzz
By: Eliza Bennet
In an ambitious bid to disrupt both space tourism and the crypto wallet landscape, Rumble, the alternative media platform, has announced plans to launch a non-custodial Bitcoin wallet. Simultaneously, the crypto exchange HTX is set to select one lucky individual for an unprecedented space mission alongside the infamous crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun. This intertwining of space exploration and digital finance innovations is set to shock the market, touching on two distinct yet fascinating realms.
HTX, formerly known as Huobi, is spearheading a campaign whereby one user will secure a $6 million ticket to join Justin Sun on a space excursion scheduled for July 2025. The journey, delayed from its originally publicized date due to varying setbacks, aims to reignite interest in commercial space travel. Meanwhile, the Blue Origin mission has recently come under scrutiny after featuring notable figures such as pop star Katy Perry and TV host Gayle King. Despite these challenges, the collaborative spirit of the initiative hopes to garner new public engagement and media attention.
On the other front, Rumble's collaboration with Tether aims to challenge giants like Coinbase with their innovative Rumble Wallet. Chris Pavlovski, CEO of Rumble, has proudly announced the wallet as a major tool for creators, embracing the blockchain revolution with peer-to-peer transactions, tipping, and direct support from fans to creators. The inclusion of both Bitcoin and Tether in the wallet attests to Rumble's proactive pivot towards inclusion in the digital currency space, despite the company seeing only a slight stock increase.
Amidst these developments, Vietnam is pioneering TradFi blockchain integration, signaling a region-wide embrace of blockchain solutions. With HTX's campaign and Rumble's technological advancements, the fusion of digital innovations promises a transformative impact across industries, from media streaming and creator empowerment to groundbreaking space tourism efforts.
