Crypto payment adoption is accelerating at a remarkable pace. Last year saw Visa-issued crypto cards explode—spending surged 525% over the course of 2025, climbing from just $14.6 million in January to $91.3 million by December. The momentum behind digital payment cards tied to digital assets is unmistakable.



EtherFi dominated the space with $55.4 million in annual spending through their card offering, establishing themselves as the clear leader. Cypher followed at $20.5 million, showing solid traction in the emerging crypto payment ecosystem.

Beyond the cards themselves, the broader stablecoin market reflects this growing mainstream adoption. Trading volumes reached an impressive $2.5 trillion, underscoring how integral stablecoins have become to both retail and institutional transactions. The data tells a clear story: crypto payment infrastructure isn't just growing—it's being woven into everyday financial behavior.

525% growth? EtherFi is crushing other competitors directly; this data is a bit outrageous.

ngl these numbers are a bit scary, 525% growth? EtherFi is really going all out this time, but speaking of which, isn't the 2.5 trillion trading volume of stablecoins a bit exaggerated...

A 525% increase, huh? But I'm more concerned about whether these cards are actually being used by people or if it's just digital hype...

etherfi's 525% growth is truly impressive, but to be honest, it still depends on whether they can maintain stability moving forward.
