Cryptocurrency payment cards are expected to explode in 2025. According to on-chain data statistics, the total on-chain payment amount completed through crypto cards has surged by 525% year-over-year. Among them, Visa crypto cards performed particularly well—monthly spending increased from $14.6 million at the beginning of the year to $91.3 million by the end of the year, nearly a 6-fold increase. Behind this growth are six ecosystem platforms supporting Visa crypto cards: GnosisPay, EtherFi Cash, Cypher, Avici Money, ExaApp, and Moonwell. Among them, EtherFi Cash, through its linkage with the EtherFi ecosystem, has become one of the growth engines. This indicates that crypto payments, which were once a niche wallet feature, are gradually evolving into the mainstream on-chain consumption method.

525%？What are you talking about, is it real or not? The data seems too crazy. EtherFi can take off just by hitching a ride; this ecosystem collaboration is really well understood. Is the crypto card finally going mainstream? No one was using it before. It sounds good, but it's still the same few platforms hyping themselves up; widespread adoption is still a long way off. Monthly spending skyrocketed from 14.6 million to 91.3 million; this growth curve is a bit outrageous haha. Mainstream payment pathways? It's still too early to say; once Costco accepts it, then it's a real win. I haven't even heard of half of these platform names, how did they become the engine?

visa cards doing 6x in a year? that's the kind of network resilience data i can actually respect. no speculation—just pure on-chain throughput. ethefi cash riding the ecosystem synergy hard, classic move.

Wait, a 6x increase? How many people are using it? The numbers seem a bit inflated.

525% growth, 6 times monthly consumption, this data is indeed crazy EtherFi Cash is also amazing this time, the ecosystem integration is just so strong By the way, only a few people actually use crypto cards for spending, even if the numbers look good Are those platforms reliable? Have they ever scammed people? Finally entering the mainstream, just wait a bit longer, more users should hop on soon

525%? Damn, that's an outrageous number. Visa is seriously trying to take this slice of the cake.
