“Rumble represents free speech and liberty the same way that cryptocurrency and a decentralized internet represent freedom, and Rumble Wallet is the natural combination of those things,” said Rumble founder and CEO Chris Pavlovski. “We are putting more power into the hands of users and creators so they can engage with and financially support the content they like. That’s another parallel to free expression, and it’s all unique to Rumble.”
Crypto on- and off-ramps will be powered by MoonPay, with traditional payment methods like credit cards, Apple Pay, PayPal, and Venmo also supported, enabling users to move funds between crypto and fiat.
Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether, commented: “At Tether, we champion technologies that break boundaries and promote freedom, decentralization, and the fundamental right to free expression. Rumble Wallet brings those ideals together into one product that will give tens of millions of users more control than any platform has offered before, even in the United States.”

The coin is structured like a governance token, allowing holders to vote on reward distribution. BUCK pays 7% annual yield, with returns accruing minute by minute, and is initially available to non-U.S. users.
While initially priced at $1.00, BUCK is not marketed as a stablecoin and does not maintain a hard dollar peg, according to founder and CEO Travis VanderZanden.
“Every healthy economy needs both a way to spend and a way to save, which is why Buck introduces the SavingsCoin,” VanderZanden said. “Stablecoins have become very good at moving money, but Buck is designed for what happens in between, earning rewards on idle capital.”
The launch comes amid the recent rebound in the crypto market, with the Bitcoin price, which the token is indirectly linked to through Strategy, rising to trade above $94,000 for the first time in over a month.
According to VanderZanden, BUCK is designed for users who want to make predictable returns from crypto without actively trading.“People want a simple way to earn rewards in crypto without becoming speculators,” he said. “Buck is designed to make saving in crypto more intuitive.”

Polymarket Launches Real Estate Predictions Market Powered By Parcl Indices
Quick take:
Polymarket will list and operate the markets while Parcl will provide independent index data and settlement reference values.
Real estate is one of the most fragmented markets in the world, which Parcl’s daily indices try to simplify, allowing a simpler way to trade housing outcomes.
The real-time housing data and on-chain real estate platform offer clear settlement rules and public, auditable resolution data.
Polymarket, one of the leading prediction market platforms, has partnered with Parcl, a real-time housing data and on-chain real estate platform, to introduce housing-focused markets that settle against Parcl’s published price indices, offering a data-driven reference point for forecasting where home prices are headed.
According to the press release seen by NFTgators, Polymarket will list and operate the markets while Parcl will provide independent index data and settlement reference values. The two companies seek to simplify one of the most fragmented industries in the world by leveraging Parcl’s daily indices to enable a simpler way to trade housing outcomes.
“Housing is the largest asset class in the world, but it’s still hard to express a clean view on price direction without taking on property-level complexity, leverage, or long timelines,” the companies wrote in an announcement on Monday.
The companies believe they can provide clear settlement rules and public, auditable resolution data powered by Parcl’s daily indices with Polymarket’s event-market structure.
“Prediction markets are gaining substantial momentum and represent a paradigm shift in how views are expressed, and truth is identified,” said Trevor Bacon, CEO of Parcl. “Parcl is the source of truth for real-estate pricing, and we believe real estate should be a major category within the prediction-market ecosystem. Polymarket is a pioneer in the space, and we’re excited to partner with them.”
The partnership will initially focus on major U.S. housing markets, with template questions tied to index movements across defined periods, like whether a city’s home price index finishes up or down over a month, quarter, or year, as well as threshold-style outcomes that settle against published index values.
The first rollout will be in phases, starting with high-liquidity cities and adding more metros depending on user demand.
Matthew Modabber, CMO of Polymarket, commented: “Parcl’s daily housing indices give us a strong foundation to launch housing markets that settle transparently and consistently. Real estate should be a first-class category in prediction markets, and this partnership is how we get there.”

Korbit is South Korea’s fourth-largest cryptocurrency exchange platform by volume, with about $11.8 million 24-hour volume.
The acquisition talks have sparked speculation that the deal could disrupt the market domination of Upbit and Bithumb in the country.
Mirae Asset Financial Group is reportedly planning to acquire a 92% stake in the cryptocurrency exchange company Korbit.
According to the report by Korea Times, the company plans to acquire a 60.5% stake from NXC, Korbit’s largest shareholder, and another 31.5% stake from SK Planet, its second-largest shareholder, at a total cost of 140 billion won (approximately $97 million).
If the deal goes through, the purchase will be led by Mirae Asset Consulting, the group’s real estate and consulting affiliate. It is Mirae Asset Financial Group’s biggest unit in the corporate structure, which includes securities, asset management, venture capital, life insurance, and pension operations.
Korbit is South Korea’s fourth-largest cryptocurrency exchange platform by volume, with about $11.8 million 24-hour volume, way below Upbit’s $1.2 billion and Bithumb’s $475 million, as per CoinGecko data.

According to the report, founder Park Hyeon-joo, who is now the global strategy officer for the company, has been exploring opportunities in businesses that connect traditional finance with digital assets globally.
A bid would be “in line with Park’s vision for digital asset-based financial innovation,” according to an industry official.
