Web3 Payment Breakthrough Battle: Aim to Make Crypto Transactions as Easy as Swiping Cards by 2026

[Crypto World] The recent Web3 grand event gathering industry leaders in Seoul has successfully concluded. The highlight of this event is not hype, but focusing on the real challenge—how to turn cryptocurrencies from trading tools into practical payment methods.

Several mainstream trading platforms announced new initiatives at the conference. The most notable is the launch of a payment card program with a straightforward goal: to open a channel between crypto assets and fiat currency, allowing users to spend digital assets just like traditional bank cards. In simple terms, it’s about activating those cryptocurrencies locked in wallets and making them liquid.

From asset speculation to practical application—this transition sounds simple, but it’s a major test for the entire ecosystem. The event also specifically discussed the path to mainstream Web3 payments. The participating guests shared a consistent view: payments are the last mile connecting Web3 with real life.

The leaders of exchanges revealed their ambitions for 2026 in interviews: to make crypto payment experiences as convenient as card payments. This is not just a product upgrade but a shift in ecosystem mindset—from a gambling mentality to application-driven.

If this goal can be achieved, the adoption rate of cryptocurrencies may accelerate, and a new wave of market growth could be on the horizon.
