Crypto card spending just hit an all-time high – and a new player is leading the charge. KASTxyz processed $14 million in daily crypto card transactions on July 20, pushing past rival RedotPay to take the top spot. The entire sector clocked $36.82 million that same day, a record for the segment.
Where the record came from
KASTxyz’s $14 million haul wasn't just a personal best. It was enough to knock RedotPay from the daily leaderboard, a position RedotPay had held for months. KASTxyz has been quietly building its card infrastructure, and July 20 was the first day it cracked the $14 million mark. The company hasn't announced what drove the spike – no special promotion or new partnership has been disclosed publicly. But the numbers alone tell a story: crypto card usage is no longer niche.
The sector-wide record of $36.82 million on July 20 means consumers are spending crypto on everyday purchases at an accelerating clip. That's roughly double the daily average from a year ago, though the data here speaks for itself. Visa and Mastercard have both opened up their networks to crypto-linked cards, and a growing list of issuers are competing for transaction volume. KASTxyz’s rise suggests the market isn't ossified – smaller players can still grab share.
RedotPay isn't going to disappear overnight, but losing the top daily volume to KASTxyz is a signal. KASTxyz now has momentum, and in a market where daily records fall every few weeks, being the one setting them matters. Neither company has commented on the July 20 data yet. The next milestone to watch: whether KASTxyz can hold the lead, or if RedotPay responds with its own push. With total daily spending nearing $40 million, the ceiling isn't in sight.
