Rumble Inc.'s stock price surged by 81% following Tether's announcement of a $775 million investment in the video sharing platform. Tether will acquire a stake in Rumble but will not have any representation on its board. Rumble plans to use $525 million for a self-tender offer and invest the remaining $250 million in growth initiatives.

The investment could potentially help Rumble improve its metrics and reduce losses, but the current valuation of the stock appears to be high compared to its revenue growth rate.
