Bridging the Fiat and Crypto Worlds with Avici Virtual Accounts
Virtual Accounts on Solana are changing how people use crypto in daily life. Avici has launched a new feature that makes crypto work like a real bank account, without giving up self-custody. With Virtual Accounts on Solana, Avici connects the fiat world we live in with the crypto tools we trust.
Avici's Vision for Everyday Crypto Use
Most people love crypto for one reason: ownership. You control your money. No bank and no middleman. But we still live in a fiat system where we pay salaries, rent, and handle business payments via bank transfers. Avici fixes this gap.

By introducing named virtual accounts, Avici becomes a real alternative to a normal bank account, built for the internet age.
Understanding Avici's Virtual Accounts
MoonPay powers Avici’s named virtual accounts, and it runs on the Solana network. You get a real bank account number and IBAN. Behind the scenes, fiat money is automatically converted into stablecoins such as USDC or EUROC. Those stablecoins land in your self-custodial Avici wallet. You own the funds, always.
