If you want to book everything with stablecoins there are several Neo bank options available
1) Setup an account using your Google/Apple Account/Email
2) Deposit the stables (or crypto) into your Neo bank wallet
3) Purchase a debit card from the bank; @useTria "Virtual Card" offer a low cost entry at $20, but if you want 6% crypto cashback rewards then I'd go with their Premium card
It's accepted anywhere VISA/Mastercard/Google & Apple Pay operate
I've just cancelled my AMEX because the benefits no longer compare when you take into account crypto cash back, insurance and other perks like lounge access
4) Tria has offered a 20% discount on the price of these cards when using my code
This is a rev share arrangement, so if you've found any of my Neo bank content useful then this is a way of paying me back while also saving on the card cost
Alpha: I'm speculating that they airdrop their $TRIA token to early supporters (which could include card holders)?

My spreadsheet has an array of other options if you don't want to use Tria, but for the love of god try one out if you're in crypto
It's a game changer and you bypass the slow incumbent traditional banking system
The swap fee is ~0.5% so if you're transacting large amounts it's best to swap on a DEX with deep liquidity then transfer to Tria to spend
This is a key reason why payments will be a leading use case for crypto
The fun really starts when you enable agents to 'own' one of these virtual cards and going rogue acquiring stuff on the internet, although most purchases will likely be compute, subscription access, API calls etc
There's a reason "Agentic Commerce" is being pushed by the biggest institutions in traditional finance
Neo Banks + Agents + Stable = The Future

El jugador del primer equipo Pedri sufre una rotura del bíceps femoral distal de la pierna izquierda. El tiempo aproximado de recuperación lo marcará la evolución de la lesión.
Wintermute is telling you to max bid.
Yields are easing, volatility is down, and BTC reclaimed 115k helped by ETF inflows and short squeezes.
DeFi and AI are leading as liquidity improves and positioning looks cleaner.
The setup into November looks healthy with a classic Q4 rotation into risk.
"macro tailwinds, cooling inflation, “stabilizing” geopolitical tension and a dovish FED are setting the stage for a supportive rest of the year, which historically (Q4) has been the strongest for Bitcoin"
$CRO pumps 11.5% after Trump Media news to launch a prediction market using Crypto. com Derivatives North America
Congratz and well played but I won't forget they 'unburned' 70% of the total $CRO supply.
In August, Trump Media agreed to form a DAT to buy CRO token.
Smart money has ploughed 7 figures into the @virtuals_io ecosystem this week
Why?
Yes x402 is a driving factor, but it's the broader "Agentic Commerce" bet that people are making
Agent Commerce Protocol ("ACP") has always been something Virtuals is developing for the long term
The Genesis launchpad was just something to keep degens happy while they built out a broader ecosystem
There's also been bets placed on other @base agentic infra like @CreatorBid who have been integrating TAO ecosystem projects like @sire_agent which recently filled its agentic "bookmaker" alpha vault in minutes
Other third party protocols are catching attention like @flock_io partnering with @AlibabaGroup 's QWEN and has integrated x402 to enable seamless micropayments
There was always going to be a second AI boom in crypto; I honestly didn't think it would be so soon.
The final rally will be with Robotics; which we will see these payment systems plugged into Physical AI to realize a dystopian future that we've seen in Ex-Machina or I-Robot.
The future is agentic, and crypto enables AI.
Robotics season.
@Tesla_Optimus + Robotaxis are early, but effective, iterations of Physical AI.
If Musk can send rockets into space, it's probably not a bad bet that his robos won't need tele-operators.
Sidenote but this is the first time I've booked an entire trip (flights, hotels, trains etc) using stablecoins
Removes the headache of off-ramping and using a bank.. cool to see and benefit from the adoption first hand
