As part of this strategy, Rumble plans to purchase up to $20 million worth of BTC. The company described Bitcoin as a “valuable tool for strategic planning.” Rumble CEO and Chairman Chris Pavlovski explained:

We believe that the world is still in the early stages of the adoption of Bitcoin, which has recently accelerated with the election of a crypto-friendly US presidential administration and increased institutional adoption. Unlike any government-issued currency, Bitcoin is not subject to dilution through endless money-printing, enabling it to be a valuable inflation hedge and an excellent addition to our treasury.

The company stated that its management would uate factors such as market conditions, Bitcoin’s trading price, and Rumble’s cash flow needs to determine the timing and amount of BTC purchases. However, it emphasized that the strategy could be modified, paused, or discontinued.

Interestingly, the announcement followed a poll conducted by Pavlovski on X, where he asked users whether Rumble should add Bitcoin to its balance sheet. Over 93% of the 43,790 respondents voted in favor of the proposal.

Rumble’s stock price surged after the announcement, reflecting investor confidence. The tech company’s shares closed at $7.31, marking a 12.63% increase in a single day.
