Most people in the comment section will just share their referral links. Here’s categories of different crypto cards/neobanks based on what you actually want to do with them: • If you want access to DeFi + yield & more: @avici & @useTria • Best customer support + access to yield: @plasma & @ether_fi • If you’re in the EU: @gnosispay • Best card options in APAC & Africa: @Redotpay • If you want to send money abroad, get USD accounts, off-ramp, etc: @jup_mobile global & @hyperbeat • Agentic payments: @cypher • If you want a privacy card: @payy_link (KYC) & @offgridcash (non-KYC, still in beta) • If you want to gamble on maybe having your transaction paid for: @itstuyo What did I miss?

So, mistakenly funded @okx with bsc usdt, and there was a already a self-service that allowed me send it back to the initial wallet for a small fee ($1). Now the question is, do other exchanges allow this or do they require users to open tickets while charging up to 20% fees or even outrightly refusing to help?

If you feel like you don't have an edge, start asking yourself if you are focusing on the right areas. Instead of trying to improve your weaknesses, start embracing your strengths. This goes for crypto, but also life in general. Eg., if you don't like sitting in front of the screen all day, long-term investing may suit you better than trading. If you are good at talking with people + handsome, use your strengths for sales, BD, and marketing. Good at writing, then become the best copywriter, etc. People are whining about hating their job; this shouldn't be the case in 2026 with so many opportunities for leverage, especially through social media. Everyone has something. You were given these talents for a reason. Don't give up on finding what you're naturally good at.

most blockchains pivoting to crypto payments are just rerunning the same scheme they used when launching a valueless token they kept selling to people. there was this particular project that recently pivoted. they keep writing about how amazing the product is. on testing, it’s nothing but shitty. the first time i tried it, passkeys weren’t even working, not to mention i couldn’t get a peep of what the app actually offered. after like two days, i went back again. everything seemed normal. i was able to log in, but every time i did my verification, nothing showed up whether it was successful or not. to say the fact, the UX is also so clunky too. meanwhile, every comment on twitter whenever they post all those buzzwords about how great their product is, it’s always the same circle-jerk of people backing them up with good replies and no mention of the actual product. tells you more about whether they’re really building or just trying to attract volume to their token so they can dump on you again. pls don’t ask me the project name because i won’t tell you, but this is really so bad to see tbh.

Plasma One having a breakout here on their card volume. $795K in spend yesterday, nearly double their previous high. Very clear bullish trend for their neobank product and as an investor all we'd want to see is a renewed focus on as a beneficiary of this growth. Its so early in this product life-cycle that you can think of it as a pure growth play with revenue and token economics to be developed as economies of scale kick in. The bull case is billions of spend per month on Plasma One, small fees redirected into XPL buybacks or dividends to share holders. Trillions?

not trying to make anything up, but i've never interacted with any of these accounts in any way possible. really sad to see what happened to them, but it's a warning to everyone to commit to the grind instead of using shortcuts. fakes are obvious at first glance. you can't trick the system.

A bunch of CT accounts got suspended overnight 1. How many do you know? lol 2. Why did they get suspended? I checked their accounts with wayback machine and this is what I found out: - Engagement groups (200 likes, 100 comments, 1k views) - AI generated comments - Spam commenting (300+/day) We don't know the exact reason they were banned But damn just grow your account organically

reason why i despise crypto card rankings to this day is the rationale behind them. some people rank based on performance, some based on cashback, some based on UX, and some based on they are paid to do so. it just never gives the full picture. i think the best way to go about it is for everybody to use what works best for them tbh.

X Accounts are getting suspended left and right Here are few tips that you should do right now to prevent that happening to you aswell: - Posting the same spammy replies like “GM” or “GN” again and again - Promoting ads or paid posts without proper disclosure - Mass following, unfollowing, liking, or sending bulk DMs like a bot - Using bots or automation tools to like, follow, or tweet - Posting violent or graphic content without a warning - Logging into another account after a suspension on the same device - Clear "Apps and Sessions" - Engaging too much with accounts that are already flagged or suspended - Not enabling security features like two factor authentication - Using abusive language, slurs, or excessive cursing

> 2-4k impressions > 100-200 likes > 100-200 comments The amount of “KOLs” here with these statistics is insanely high. Obviously faking their engagement through engagement farming groups and this brings 0 value.

finally got eligible for X monetization around two days ago. been battling with getting my ID verification done in other to add my payment option even though I'm ID verified on X, stripe is declining the same ID and I don't know why. I even got a new card yesterday. so far it just:- • says "unable to verify ID" • and if it goes through, it just declines the ID I've tried using a different better camera, gotten a new card, tried all kinds of lighting and positions and it still does the same thing. the funny thing is, this same verification medium has worked for many others - I don't know why it's different in my case. I've reached out to @Support and haven't gotten a response so far. if you have some tips to share for how it worked for you (using the NIN card) please share. I'll keep trying and hope X support grants an audience this week

Bro they just know their audience so well most people going there are just there for the cheap items hence the random pop everywhere and this aren’t just pop up’s if you know your way around it it’ll surely help with the price slash Have figured out my way around it and I’m happy to help as well

temu’s website is one of the worst out there. i don’t get why people don’t talk about this. it’s chaotic even when you land on their page from a product ad you saw somewhere else. they won’t let you just check the product and buy. it’s always some random pop-up ads on there. spin the wheel games for free items, promo promo promo. i get it, stuff is cheap. it’s why i’m there instead of jumia or amazon. don’t redirect me, don’t sidetrack me. let me shop. but i get it. a good chunk of their customers are price sensitive so they don’t mind the ux

for those project thinking of being yet another Etherfi killer…. just so you know, they’ve spent nearly $20m on user incentives. if you’re ready to spend more than that, you’re welcome. if not, don’t even try.

@Octop3s Although I work for one, I agree completely. Firm believer in using what’s best for YOU as there isn’t a card that is the best one overall. Every business has diff perks/features to appeal to a wider audience.

@Octop3s Agreed, but for example I follow you and your views resonate with me. I'd be curious to hear your take, since I know you use a lot of different cards, you have a ton of experience and you really know your stuff in this area. Why not 🥹
