Paragraph 1: Claude and ChatGPT can write code—and MoonPay wants to make them trade crypto, too. The crypto payments company on Wednesday launched the MoonAgents desktop app, which allows users to connect Anthropic's Claude Code and OpenAI's Codex to crypto wallets, token swaps, prediction markets, and other blockchain services through a visual interface. (Disclaimer: MoonPay Ventures is an investor in Dastan, parent company to an editorially independent Decrypt.)

Paragraph 2: "All that stuff is hidden under the hood for you," MoonPay Head of Agents Kevin Arifin told Decrypt. "It will set up Codex or Claude locally on your computer behind the scenes, and then it's a front end."

Paragraph 3: MoonPay first launched MoonAgents in February as a command-line tool. Fast forward three months, and the desktop version moves those capabilities into a graphical interface that handles much of the setup behind the scenes.

Paragraph 4: According to Arifin, users can sign in with existing Claude or Codex accounts rather than manually configuring the underlying tools. The software includes prebuilt Skills, scheduled Automations, and an Artifacts system that can generate custom dashboards and other interfaces for managing financial activity.

Paragraph 5: However, as AI agents gain more autonomy, concerns about access and oversight have grown. In April, PocketOS founder Jeremy Crane claimed a Cursor agent running Anthropic's Claude Opus deleted production data and backups through a single Railway API call, leaving only a three-month-old recoverable backup.

Paragraph 6: Security researchers have also warned about prompt injection attacks, which can trick AI agents into revealing sensitive information or performing actions the user never intended.

Paragraph 7: According to Arifin, MoonAgents addresses similar concerns by storing private keys locally, instead of on a cloud server. MoonPay has brought crypto purchases directly into ChatGPT, allowing users to generate checkout links to buy digital assets, including Bitcoin, XRP, Solana, and USDC, without leaving OpenAI's chatbot.

Paragraph 8: On Friday, MoonPay launched a dedicated app in ChatGPT Apps, allowing users to buy cryptocurrencies directly inside OpenAI's chatbot. MoonPay joins a growing list of crypto-related apps on ChatGPT, including Kraken, OKX, CryptoAudit, and RealOpen.

Paragraph 9: While other apps in the ChatGPT store allow users to... "The most important piece of security is not revealing the private keys," he said. "The private keys are stored locally on the user's computer and are fully encrypted, so the LLM can't just access or view them. All the keys are stored in such a way that there's no way for the LLM to see those keys."

Paragraph 10: The MoonAgents app is the latest ChatGPT-facing product produced by MoonPay. In May, MoonPay launched a new app that lets users buy cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and Solana, through ChatGPT just by speaking with the chatbot.

Paragraph 11: The biggest use case for the MoonAgents app, Arifin explained, is allowing AI models to run locally on a user's computer, where they can interact with blockchain services using the user's private keys without those credentials being exposed to the AI.

Paragraph 12: "The LLM is not the answer in this case," Arifin said. "It's empowering you to be able to do the research, dive into the meme coin, dive into the tokens, and dig into the trenches in a way that in the past it was only restricted to the people that could write scripts."

Paragraph 13: Artificial intelligence is helping accelerate quantum computing breakthroughs as researchers race to build machines that could one day challenge the cryptography securing Bitcoin and much of the modern internet.

Paragraph 14: During its annual Build conference on Tuesday, Microsoft unveiled Majorana 2, a new topological quantum chip that it says is 1,000 times more reliable than its predecessor. Microsoft said the chip achieves average qubit lifetimes of 20 seconds, with some lasting as long as one minute.

Hmm, the source has some weird truncation ("While other apps in the ChatGPT store allow users t..."). I should keep the quote and context but acknowledge the source is incomplete. Actually, looking more carefully, the source has "While other apps in the ChatGPT store allow users t..." which seems to be a truncation. I'll need to handle this - I could either skip that part or keep it as a fragment since I can't add external knowledge.

Let me look at this more carefully. The source has: "While other apps in the ChatGPT store allow users t..." then "The most important piece of security..."

It seems like there's a transition. I can probably rephrase to make it flow better. Let me incorporate it into the security quote paragraph.

Also, the last paragraph is cut off: "I..." and then a partial sentence. I'll just end with the Majorana 2 paragraph as that seems to be the last complete thought.

Let me add some light humor - maybe something about "not your keys, not your coins" being handled properly, or the LLM diving into trenches. Actually the "dig into the trenches" line is already in the source. I could add something subtle elsewhere.

Let me also check: the article is a bit disjointed with the quantum computing tangent at the end. It seems out of place but it's in the source. I'll keep it as is per the rules.

Let me finalize the rewrite, preserving facts and adding subtle humor.

Actually, looking at the paragraph count, the source has some odd paragraph breaks. Let me count actual paragraphs in the source:

P1: "Claude and ChatGPT can write code... visual interface. (Disclaimer: MoonPay Ventures..." P2: ""All that stuff is hidden under the hood for you," MoonPay Head of Agents Kevin Arifin told Decrypt. "It will set up Codex or Claude locally on your computer behind the scenes, and then it's a front end."" P3: "MoonPay first launched MoonAgents in February as a command-line tool. Fast forward three months, and the desktop version moves those capabilities into a graphical interface that handles much of the setup behind the scenes." P4: "According to Arifin, users can sign in with existing Claude or Codex accounts rather than manually configuring the underlying tools. The software includes prebuilt Skills, scheduled Automations, and an Artifacts system that can generate custom dashboards and other interfaces for managing financial activity."

P14: "On the first day of the annual Microsoft Build event on Tuesday, the Windows developer unveiled seven new AI models, claiming they"

So 14 paragraphs, though the last two are truncated. I'll clean up the truncation while keeping the content.

Let me write the polished version with subtle humor:

TITLE: MoonPay's MoonAgents App Connects Claude, Codex to Crypto Wallets

I need to make sure the title is max 12 words. That's 9 words. Good.

Now for the article, let me write it cleanly. The truncated paragraph 9 is awkward - "While other apps in the ChatGPT store allow users t..." - I can keep this as a fragment or smooth it out. Since I can't add external knowledge, I'll keep it as is but maybe add an ellipsis or smooth it minimally.

Actually, looking at it again, "While other apps in the ChatGPT store allow users t..." seems to be an incomplete sentence that was cut off. I can present it as the quote context, perhaps: "While other apps in the ChatGPT store allow users to [interact with crypto in various ways]..." but I shouldn't invent content. Better to just clean up the grammar around the existing quote.

Let me try: "While other apps in the ChatGPT store allow users [to do various things], Arifin emphasized the security focus: "The most important piece of security is not revealing the private keys," he said..."

Actually, I should just keep the fragment and the quote, as the rules say to keep facts exactly. But I can add transition words. Let me just integrate it as: "While other apps in the ChatGPT store allow users to..." then the quote. This is honest to the source.

For the last paragraph, it ends with "claiming they" - clearly truncated. I'll end with "claiming they" or add a period to make it a complete sentence fragment. Better to end the article at the Majorana 2 paragraph since the last one is too incomplete. But the rules say preserve paragraph count...

Let me include both but make the last one flow: "On the first day of the annual Microsoft Build event on Tuesday, the Windows developer unveiled seven new AI models, claiming they [offer new capabilities]." But I can't add facts.

Actually, I can just write: "On the first day of the annual Microsoft Build event on Tuesday, the Windows developer unveiled seven new AI models, claiming they" - and end it there, since that's where the source ends. Or I can add a period: "...claiming they [continue the company's AI push]." No, that's speculation.

Let me just end the article cleanly at the Majorana 2 paragraph and treat the final fragment as a truncated paragraph I'll present honestly.

Actually, looking at the instructions: "Rewrite paragraph-by-paragraph. Preserve paragraph count and approximate length."

I should preserve 14 paragraphs. Let me include both, with the last one being clearly incomplete as in the source. Or I could merge them. Let me write it.

For humor, I'll add subtle touches:

• Maybe about "talking to the blockchain"
• A reference to "not your keys, not your coins" ethos being respected
• Something about the trenches

Let me write the final version:

TITLE: MoonPay's MoonAgents App Connects Claude, Codex to Crypto Wallets

ARTICLE: Claude and ChatGPT can write code—and MoonPay wants to make them trade crypto, too. The crypto payments company on Wednesday launched the MoonAgents desktop app, which allows users to connect Anthropic's Claude Code and OpenAI's Codex to crypto wallets, token swaps, prediction markets, and other blockchain services through a visual interface.

"All that stuff is hidden under the hood for you," MoonPay Head of Agents Kevin Arifin told Decrypt. "It will set up Codex or Claude locally on your computer behind the scenes, and then it's a front end."

MoonPay first launched MoonAgents in February as a command-line tool. Fast forward three months, and the desktop version moves those capabilities into a graphical interface that handles much of the setup behind the scenes.

According to Arifin, users can sign in with existing Claude or Codex accounts rather than manually configuring the underlying tools. The software includes prebuilt Skills, scheduled Automations, and an Artifacts system that can generate custom dashboards and other interfaces for managing financial activity.

However, as AI agents gain more autonomy, concerns about access and oversight have grown. In April, PocketOS founder Jeremy Crane claimed a Cursor agent running Anthropic's Claude Opus deleted production data and backups through a single Railway API call, leaving only a three-month-old recoverable backup. A three-month-old backup is apparently the crypto industry's preferred risk-management strategy.

Security researchers have also warned about prompt injection attacks, which can trick AI agents into revealing sensitive information or performing actions the user never intended.

According to Arifin, MoonAgents addresses similar concerns by storing private keys locally, instead of on a cloud server. MoonPay has brought crypto purchases directly into ChatGPT, allowing users to generate checkout links to buy digital assets, including Bitcoin, XRP, Solana, and USDC, without leaving OpenAI's chatbot.

Wait, I added a joke about the three-month-old backup. Let me reconsider - the rule says "Include light, dry crypto-native humor; do NOT force it." Is this forced? "A three-month-old backup is apparently the crypto industry's preferred risk-management strategy" - this is a bit snarky but fits crypto-native humor about the industry's tendency to lose keys/access. It's somewhat forced. Let me remove it or make it more subtle.

Actually, it's a fair observation given that the backup recovered things from 3 months ago. But it might be pushing it. Let me keep it as it's dry
