⬤ Visa just reported a massive surge in crypto card spending for 2025, with net volumes across major Visa-issued crypto cards jumping 525% year to date. Spending rocketed from $14.6 million to $91.3 million, showing that crypto-funded payment cards are gaining serious traction for everyday purchases. Monthly volume charts reveal steady growth throughout the year, with spending accelerating dramatically in the second half of 2025.
⬤ The numbers cover Visa crypto cards connected to platforms like GnosisPay, EtherFi Cash, Cypher, Avici Money, Exaapp, and Moonwell. EtherFi-linked cards captured a significant chunk of this growth, reflecting surging activity from users converting their crypto holdings into everyday spending through the Visa network. Monthly volumes tell the story: starting around the mid-teens in millions during January, spending climbed past $80 million by November.
⬤ Visa's crypto card infrastructure is effectively bridging the gap between digital assets and traditional payment systems. The trend shows crypto holders are moving beyond just trading or storing their assets—they're actually using them for regular purchases. While the data doesn't break down specific regions or merchant categories, the consistent month-over-month climb throughout 2025 points to expanding adoption across multiple card programs.
