Brag House and House of Doge Drive Dogecoin Card Spending to $18 Billion Run Rate
Brag House Holdings, through its merger with House of Doge, will integrate Dogecoin into traditional payment rails after crypto-card spending reached an $18 billion annualized run rate, a 15× increase since 2023. Visa’s 130 stablecoin card programs and Mastercard’s 150 million acceptance locations back this push.
1. Surge in Crypto Card Spending
Crypto-linked debit card transactions have soared to an $18 billion annualized run rate, representing more than a 15× increase since 2023, as consumers deploy digital assets for everyday purchases rather than trading or peer-to-peer transfers.
2. Payment Network Support
Global networks underpin this growth: Visa now supports 130 stablecoin-linked card issuing programs across over 40 countries, while Mastercard enables spending at more than 150 million merchant locations and has onboarded over 85 industry partners through its Crypto Partner Program.
3. Dogecoin Integration Strategy
House of Doge CEO Marco Margiotta emphasizes that embedding Dogecoin into existing card rails will lower development costs, ease regulatory pathways and accelerate consumer adoption by allowing digital assets to be spent wherever traditional cards are accepted.
4. Implications for Brag House Holdings
As a merger partner in this initiative, Brag House Holdings stands to gain new payment revenue streams and broaden its gaming platform’s utility by offering integrated crypto payment options to its Gen Z user base.
