Back in 2024, the company announced a partnership with\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.moonpay.com\/newsroom\/exodus\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Exodus<\/a>, calling the popular self\u2011custody app a \u201cbeginner\u2011friendly Bitcoin and crypto wallet\u201d and allowing users to buy assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum directly via MoonPay\u2019s on\u2011ramp.<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.moonpay.com\/newsroom\/exodus\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Exodus support is critical for the MoonAgents Card because it gives AI agents an immediate user base and a familiar interface.

By giving AI agents a way to spend stablecoins \u201clike cash\u201d over existing card rails, MoonPay is betting that consumers will tolerate crypto complexity on the back end as long as the front\u2011end looks like a normal tap\u2011to\u2011pay experience.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"building-an-agentic-payments-stack\">Building an \u201cagentic payments\u201d stack<\/h2>\n<p>MoonPay\u2019s AI ambitions go beyond a single card.
