I have not yet looked seriously into a crypto-card, although I keep seeing ads for them. Since I am mostly HODLing, I don't yet need one. I did start wondering about them, though. I have a few questions.
First, if the cards are issued by Visa or Mastercard, are we giving up some of the privacy advantages? I assume those companies would not have access to our keys, but could someone who stole a credit card drain a crypto account?
Second, does using Visa or Mastercard mean a company such as Uphold might be pressured to "cancel" people's accounts for "wrongthink"?
I don't want to give up freedom and privacy for convenience. I hate being mined for information by big companies that support centralized banking and support anti-freedom politicians.
Is anyone savvy about this? Thanks.
