Overview

  • MoonPay launched the Open Wallet Standard on March 23 under an MIT license with code available on GitHub, npm, and PyPI.
  • More than 15 organizations back the effort, including PayPal, OKX, Ripple, Circle, the Ethereum Foundation, and the Solana Foundation.
  • The standard defines how agents create wallets, manage keys, and sign transactions while keeping private keys out of the agent’s runtime.
  • Multi-chain support spans EVM networks such as Ethereum, Base, Polygon, and Arbitrum, plus Solana, Bitcoin, TON, Tron, and Sui.
  • MoonPay cites 340,000+ AI-controlled wallets in Q1 2026 as demand rises, as peers launch micropayment tools, while security flaws and regulatory uncertainty remain key risks.
