the interesting thing about @UsePaid isn’t just the amount of fees flowing through it it’s the fact that creator fees are turned into actual dollars and paid through @XMoney without the recipient needing to connect a wallet now imagine being able to take that balance and send it to basically anyone with @Numpayapp token fees → USD → real person that’s a pretty clean flow imo.

Numpay on Elysium testnet is ready. We successfully sent USDC with 0 HYPE in the sender's account. The transaction went through, and the gas was fully sponsored. We've now built the complete Numpay payment experience on Elysium. Here's what we've achieved: - First gasless USDC transfer confirmed. We successfully transferred 0.02 USDC on Elysium testnet. Pimlico's paymaster covered 0.0000356 HYPE in fees, including smart account deployment. - Phone and email authentication. Web3Auth enables users to sign in with a simple verification code. Kernel v3.3 smart accounts are created automatically, with no seed phrases or complicated setup. - Same addresses as Base. Our smart account addresses remain identical across Base and Elysium, allowing us to maintain the same account structure. - Send USDC to anyone. Users can send dollars directly to a phone number or email address without needing to know the recipient's blockchain address. - Payments to non-users. Numpay creates recipient accounts in advance, allowing people to receive funds when they join and log in for the first time. - Gasless withdrawals. We've added USDC withdrawals to any Elysium address, with Numpay sponsoring the transaction fees. - Request money. Users can create direct payment requests or share payment links to receive USDC. - Transaction history. Every payment can be tracked through the app, with links to the Elysium explorer. - Pimlico gas sponsorship. Users don't need HYPE to transact. Numpay handles the network fees behind the scenes. Where we stand: The full feature set is implemented on Elysium testnet. Login, account creation, USDC sending, and gas sponsorship are successfully tested. Final validation of first-login receiving and withdrawals is underway. We've gone from getting our first sponsored transaction working to building the entire Numpay experience on Elysium. Phone number or email → Send USDC → Done. No seed phrases. No HYPE required. No complicated crypto setup. Testnet ready. More updates soon.

Building Numpay on Elysium: our first gasless transaction is already working on testnet. We're bringing Numpay to Elysium, with one goal: make sending dollars as simple as sending a text. No seed phrases, no gas tokens to manage, and no complicated crypto transactions. Here's what we've built so far: - Our first gasless transaction succeeded. We tested a sponsored transaction on Elysium testnet (chain 99801), and it went through successfully. The user paid zero gas. The core gas sponsorship infrastructure is working. - Pimlico now supports Elysium. Initially, we considered hosting our own smart-account infrastructure because bundler and paymaster support wasn't available. Pimlico has now deployed Kernel v3.3, the ECDSA validator, and paymasters. Its bundler and gas sponsorship services are responding on Elysium testnet. - Same accounts, same addresses. Numpay uses Kernel v3.3 smart accounts. Their deterministic addresses match those on Base, allowing us to maintain the same account structure across both networks without rebuilding our wallet architecture. - The frontend is ready for testing. We've added Elysium testnet configuration, integrated Pimlico for transaction submission and gas sponsorship, and configured Web3Auth for the new network. All changes are isolated from our production application. - The backend has been adapted. Pre-created recipient accounts and the logic for transferring funds when someone signs up have been updated for Elysium. We've also added a smoke test to validate the gas-sponsored transaction flow. - USDC will power payments. We're using USDC bridged from HyperEVM testnet as the dollar-denominated payment asset. The goal is to preserve Numpay's existing payment experience while moving the underlying transactions to Elysium. - The user experience stays the same. Sign in with your phone number, enter the recipient's number, and send dollars. Behind the scenes, Web3Auth manages authentication, smart accounts handle transactions, and Pimlico sponsors gas fees. - The integration is roughly halfway complete. The frontend and backend changes are implemented, and our first sponsored transaction works. The complete payment flow still needs end-to-end testing. Next: full payment testing. We're preparing a separate testnet database, getting testnet USDC, configuring authentication, and testing the full flow from signing in to sending money and receiving it through a newly created account. Preparing for mainnet. Before going live, we'll verify Pimlico's mainnet support, confirm the correct USDC contract, and test the complete payment process under production conditions. We're not rebuilding Numpay for another chain. We're bringing the same simple payment experience to Elysium. The first gasless transaction is working. Next milestone: our first complete phone-to-phone USDC payment on Elysium testnet. More soon.

building Numpay on Elysium. Here's what's actually running on testnet. We went directly onchain to check the infrastructure instead of waiting for documentation. Here's what we found on Elysium testnet (chain 99801) today: -Elysium's infrastructure is taking shape. Elysium is an Arbitrum Orbit L2 settling to HyperEVM, with HYPE as its gas token. Gas is currently around 0.1 gwei. In our tests, a typical user operation used roughly 146K gas, costing around 0.0000147 HYPE. Including account deployment, the cost was around 0.00004 HYPE. -All four EntryPoints are deployed. EntryPoint v0.6, v0.7, v0.8 and v0.9 are available on Elysium testnet. Numpay uses v0.7 for its account-abstraction transactions. -ZeroDev Kernel smart accounts are ready. Kernel v3.1, Kernel v3.3, the ECDSA validator and the meta factory were deployed today through CREATE2 in roughly four minutes. They use the same deterministic addresses as on Base, so Numpay wallets should derive to the same smart-account address across both chains. -Pimlico's bundler is responding. We tested Pimlico on chain 99801, and the bundler now responds with support for all four EntryPoints and live gas quotes. This gives us the infrastructure needed to submit account-abstraction user operations. -Gas sponsorship infrastructure is deployed. Pimlico's verifying paymasters for v0.6, v0.7 and v0.8 are deployed and funded at the same addresses used on Base. The infrastructure is there; we still need to configure our sponsorship policy. -USDC is available on Elysium. USDC is bridged from Circle's USDC on HyperEVM testnet through the canonical bridge and supports EIP-2612 permits. USDH is also bridged, though its testnet supply is currently much smaller. -What this means for Numpay. Our payment flow uses Web3Auth for login, ZeroDev Kernel v3.3 smart accounts and sponsored user operations through EntryPoint v0.7. Every core infrastructure component now exists on Elysium testnet. -No need to rebuild our wallet infrastructure. The remaining integration work is primarily chain configuration, Pimlico's bundler and paymaster endpoints, and the USDC contract address. The same wallet architecture can carry over from Base. -What's left before launch? We still need to configure our gas sponsorship policy, add Elysium to our login flow, support pre-created wallets for new users and provide a way to bring USDC onto the chain. The goal hasn't changed. Send dollars to a phone number without worrying about gas tokens, seed phrases or complicated crypto transactions. Elysium now has the infrastructure we need to work toward that experience. Next milestone: our first gasless phone-to-phone dollar transfer on Elysium.

Numpay is coming to Elysium: making sending dollars as easy as sending a text. - Building on Elysium. We're building on @Kinetiq_xyz's Elysium testnet to bring phone-number payments to the Hyperliquid ecosystem. Send dollars to anyone with just their phone number or email. No seed phrases, no gas tokens, no crypto jargon. - Already live on Base. Numpay works today at app.numpay.app: log in with your phone, send and request USDC, and pay people who aren't on Numpay yet. Their money waits in a wallet and is theirs the moment they log in. - Gas on Elysium is tiny. We measured smart-wallet transactions on Elysium testnet at ~0.00002 HYPE each, and ~0.00004 HYPE when a new wallet is created. That's what lets us cover gas for every user, so nobody ever needs to hold HYPE. - The building blocks are ready. The ERC-4337 EntryPoint (the standard smart wallets run on) is live on Elysium testnet, USDC is already bridged in from HyperEVM, and standard EVM tooling just works. Our stack ports over without a rewrite. - One account across chains. Our smart wallets deploy to the same address on every chain, so your Numpay wallet on Elysium is the same address you already have on Base. - Now with email too. Log in with your email, and send or request dollars to an email address, not just a phone number. - What's next. Deploy our smart wallets on Elysium testnet, switch on gas sponsorship, then the first gasless payment to a phone number on Elysium. Demo coming soon. You stay in control. Numpay never holds your keys. Your wallet is yours, and every payment is signed by you. Our goal is simple: make sending dollars onchain as easy as sending a text, for people who never want to hear the word "crypto." Numpay is live on Base. Elysium is next. 🌐 app.numpay.app

I remember when our whole team at Numpay went into a meeting with Robinhood team. And it was just one guy.. He said that he is the only employee who handles all of their Blockchain ecosystem partnerships, collaboration and others. Was kinda disappointing to not get any direction

Our team just had a great call with polygon foundation. Looking to integrate their open money stack into Numpay. It's one of the best pitches and the best products we have come across in a while.

A Nasdaq-listed stock went onchain almost immediately. $PUSA is now tokenized on Solana through Backpack, backed 1:1 by real shares and tradable through apps like Jupiter, Raydium and Phantom. This is where things get interesting. Stocks used to live inside brokerage accounts. Now the same exposure can start moving through crypto rails, wallets and DeFi infrastructure. Tokenized equities are starting to look less like an experiment and more like a new distribution layer for public markets.

A Nasdaq stock going live on Solana one day after the merger says a lot about where finance is heading. Stocks are becoming tokens. Payments are becoming native to apps. The rails are moving onchain. But normal users should not have to understand any of that infrastructure. That is what we are building with @Numpayapp. Send any currency to anyone in the world using just their phone number or X Money tag. The financial rails can keep getting more advanced. The experience should keep getting simpler.

Litecoin is moving onto institutional financial rails through cLTC. Another sign that crypto and traditional finance are slowly becoming the same infrastructure. But users shouldn’t need to know what network, token wrapper, or settlement layer is underneath their payment. They should just be able to send money. That’s the direction we’re taking with Numpay: a phone number in, money sent across borders. The rails can get complicated. The payment shouldn’t.

Nearly 10,000 wallets reportedly drained in the TradeWiz incident. Another reminder that moving money onchain shouldn’t require users to understand private keys, permissions, extensions, and a dozen different security risks. We’re building Numpay around a much simpler idea: send money to a phone number, across borders, without making payments feel like a crypto operation. Crypto rails can be powerful. The experience shouldn’t have to feel like crypto.

Your AI agent can now have a phone number, an email, and a wallet. Manus 2.0’s Cue is pushing AI from “chat with me” to “go do it for me.” Trip planning. Group chats. Phone calls. Real-world tasks. The real unlock? AI stops being software you useand becomes an entity that acts for you.

Hot take: the next big crypto primitive might be a launchpad for launchpads. 15+ platforms. 21,000+ token launches a day. At this point, are we witnessing the next crypto supercycle… or just building increasingly elaborate ways to collect fees?

$KOD just delivered a knockout. 🚀 Both Zenkuda and tabirafusp-ted crushed their primary endpoints in the Phase 3 DAYBREAK trial, matching aflibercept's vision gains at one year. 54% of Zenkuda patients hit 6-month dosing intervals with rapid retinal drying. Safety in line with the gold standard. Stock ripping from $32 to $50+ premarket. BLA coming Q4 2026. Fewer injections, same results. This could reshape the retina market. 👀

Citi just partnered with Coinbase to let its big corporate clients accept stablecoin payments through standard merchant services. Coinbase handles the blockchain side and converts to fiat, while Citi stays the bank of record for settlement. That means 24/7 payments, cross-border included, running on traditional banking rails. With ~305M stablecoin holders and ~$300B in supply, stablecoins are quietly becoming the bridge to everyday finance.

someone just traced 53 memecoin launches on Robinhood Chain back to the same group 70-200 wallets per launch quietly grabbing 70%+ of supply → dump on retail → money moves into the next launch within seconds 45 of 53 connected through the same fund flows $18.43M out in two months, CRUMBS alone pulled $3.12M same playbook, 53 times, until someone followed the money

The internet's new favorite sport: using meme coin launch fees to send Elon Musk money he definitely does not need.$171,000 to the richest man alive. $136,000 to @beffjezos. All routed straight through X.Somewhere, a broke college student is watching this happen in real time going "wait, what." Genuinely unclear if this is innovation or just tipping culture gone completely feral.

Numpay has only one goal: To reduce every friction in cross border payments.
