Recently, MoonPay announced their latest feature that has garnered quite a bit of attention. They launched MoonPay Agents, a software layer that allows AI agents to manage wallets and perform transactions automatically on behalf of users.

What’s interesting about this system is their non-custodial approach. So after users complete verification and fund their accounts through the MoonPay platform, AI agents can directly act to trade tokens, exchange, or transfer digital assets. It is built on top of MoonPay CLI, which is a command-line interface specifically for developers.

This feature enables AI systems to create and manage wallets programmatically, fund them through the global MoonPay gateway, and execute on-chain transactions. From a security perspective, a common question is whether such a platform is truly safe to use. MoonPay focuses on a non-custodial architecture, meaning users retain control over their assets even when AI is executing transactions.

With increasing automation in the crypto ecosystem, products like this demonstrate how AI technology can enhance asset management efficiency. Of course, before using automation features for transactions, users need to understand the security mechanisms and risks involved. This is an exciting step toward making wallet management more accessible for users who want automation without sacrificing full control over their assets.
