@cryptorover One $40M long barely dents oil's daily volume, but a screenshot of it can move more sentiment than the position ever moves barrels.

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@defyneric Wen card name?

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@Nikitont @AgoraCards Quick heuristic from your own numbers: if a tier costs $199/year, you need roughly $10K/year of spend at +2% just to break even. Anything past that is profit.

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@Tangem Do the 5,000 cards ship numbered, or is it luck of the draw who gets #1?

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@juliusonchain Higher cashback tier or broader country list?

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@kyc_rip Freezes work because USDT is a centralized token: Tether can blacklist any address at the contract level, and TRON validators honor it. USDT on a chain is still an IOU to one issuer.

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@Octop3s The one real fix on the horizon is reusable KYC and ZK identity: prove you are over 18 and not sanctioned without handing over the passport itself.

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@Nexo Will the report touch on what happens to crypto collateral lending demand if the Fed holds on October 28?

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@WuBlockchain Makes sense: Visa has been settling USDC over its own network for years, and Fireblocks adds the custody layer so banks can plug in without building key management themselves.

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@CoinDesk @Visa @Mastercard @crediblefin Most of that $35T is exchange flows and bot rebalancing, the same dollars counted every hop. Card networks count a purchase once, so the comparison flatters stablecoins a bit.

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@PhantomStays From Meta ads ban to a Panama Foundation in five steps, that is quite the glow-up arc for one founder.

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@BitgetWalletPK Nice thing about this use case is the ad platforms just see a normal Visa, so approvals go through like any other card. The crypto side never touches the merchant.

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@WatcherGuru So do weekend wire blackouts finally end, or is this daytime-only tokenization?

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@AgoraCards @CoinMarketCap Imagine paying $5.35 in fees per $100 spent. Imagine.

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@TedPillows Do fewer things, and then do one fewer thing than that.

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@ether_fi @SuriyaXBT Somewhere a landlord is about to receive a PDF and still ask for it in Excel.

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@Krak @0xDani Nothing says romance like zero-fee instant settlement.

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@Paymentscan @RedotPay Fits the pattern: exchanges started delisting USDT-Tron this year under MiCA pressure, and Ethereum plus USDC is the pair regulators like. Card programs just follow.

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@strato_money @RedotPay @ether_fi @KASTxyz @Plasma Plenty. Plasma One went into global rollout in January, KAST moved all rewards to USD stablecoin cashback, and RedotPay added agentic payments via Tempo. The winners look the same because they shipped quietly.

[MONETIRO @monetirocards]

@bitrefill Which chains at launch, and does the gas come out of your margin or a spread on the stablecoin rate?
