The VerifiedX (VFX) Network, recognized as a frontrunner in global self-custody and Web3 wallet solutions, has announced a strategic partnership with leading global cryptocurrency platform Crypto.com. This collaboration aims to integrate Crypto.com’s advanced payment solutions, including Crypto.com Pay, directly into VerifiedX’s Switchblade Wallets. The integration is designed to offer a seamless, secure, and scalable experience for both everyday users and developers.
With this partnership, users of the VFX SwitchBlade Wallet will now have the capability to purchase all supported cryptocurrencies—such as VFX and stablecoins—using fiat currency right within the wallet. The integration also allows users to conduct transactions with merchants and decentralized applications (DApps) through Crypto.com Pay, making it simple and accessible for anyone to engage with the Web3 ecosystem. Importantly, this includes user auctions conducted within the wallet, marking a crucial advancement in VerifiedX’s mission to democratize access and usability of Web3 for a broad audience.
The partnership with Crypto.com aligns with VerifiedX’s objective to streamline user experiences in Web3, maximizing comfort and self-custodial commerce without compromising on user sovereignty. The integration of fiat on-ramps and crypto-native payment methods into the VFX SwitchBlade Wallet means that all users can onboard and interact within the Web3 landscape with unprecedented ease.
Key benefits of this integration include:
-
Instant Fiat-to-Crypto On-Ramp: Users can effortlessly purchase all supported cryptocurrencies within the VFX SwitchBlade Wallet using credit and debit cards.
-
Crypto.com Pay Integration: This feature allows users to pay directly for assets in VFX peer-to-peer auctions and for goods or services from merchants and DApps using their crypto holdings.
-
Developer-Friendly Toolkit: Projects utilizing the VFX SwitchBlade Wallet infrastructure will benefit from embedded payments and onboarding functionalities that require minimal integration effort.
-
Security and Compliance: The partnership leverages the commitment to security and regulatory compliance by both platforms, ensuring a user-centric experience globally.
Joe Anzures, General Manager of Americas and EVP of Payments at Crypto.com, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, “Creating more accessible crypto payment solutions is central to our vision at Crypto.com. We are excited to partner with VerifiedX and bring even greater scale to our shared vision of seamless crypto payments.”
Founded in 2016, Crypto.com has quickly become a trusted platform for millions globally, leading the charge in regulatory compliance, security, and user privacy with a vision of Cryptocurrency in Every Wallet™.
On the other hand, VerifiedX positions itself as the “people’s network,” being the first fully open-source decentralized network that operates both as a universal layer 1 and a Bitcoin-specific sidechain. The network facilitates tokenized self-custody and on-chain storage as well as peer-to-peer commerce for digital and physical assets. Its native coin, VFX, is accessible directly in-wallet, enabling users to mint Verified Bitcoin Tokens (vBTC) with a 1:1 self-custodial peg while offering features for full asset recovery.
With a focus on providing robust solutions for everyday users—including transaction, saving, spending, borrowing, and vaulting options for digital assets—VerifiedX strives to enhance ownership experiences and reduce friction for users and integrators globally.
