What is a Cryptocurrency Credit Card?

     In 2021, the company Crypto.com had a lot of media repercussions, due to its Credit Card that would work through Cryptocurrencies. The main crypto to use is Cronos - and we're not talking about the Greek God of Time.

     Cronos (CRO) is the cryptocurrency of Exchange Crypto.com and is very similar to Binance Smart Chain (BNB). And for those investors and holders of crypto (who had a relevant amount), they could request their credit and debit card to use on a daily basis - very similar to what we are used to.

     Shortly thereafter. in january 2023 came Binance (the biggest cryptocurrency exchange in the world) and launched their card! This is definitely becoming fashionable. I wonder which will be the next Exchange that will launch its.

     These brokerage credit cards work in a very similar way to traditional cards, however, their differential is: payment can also be made through cryptocurrencies, not only fiduciary currencies such as Dollar and Euro.

Is Investing in Cryptocurrencies Worth It? This is a question that many new investors ask themselves, after all, when the market is down, it is normal for many to be full of uncertainties and doubts.


How to Apply for a Crypto Credit Card?

     To Apply for a Cryptocurrency Compatible Credit Card will depend a lot on which Exchange you intend to use. In the case of Crypto.com (which is a bit more boring and selective process), you will need to have CRO Tokens locked in the exchange for 180 days. Furthermore, it is a significant amount and not accessible to all investors.

     Today, the easiest option - without a doubt - is through Binance Brokerage! As the Exchange itself says, "it is an accessible card for all Binance users", with that, it is a more accessible card. The only caveat to requesting the card is that you will have to carry out the Identity Verification, and this is a little "bad" for users looking for decentralization.

     Binance has already shown itself to be in favor of this path and is increasingly centralized. The cryptocurrency market is very broad and you can find users both in favor and against centralization of the exchange, so these are the easiest cards to apply for.


Is it worth having a Crypto Card?

     The question you should ask yourself is: Why not have a Credit Card that works with Cryptocurrencies? After all, we already know that this market is the future, so why not get ahead and guarantee your card? Maybe up front, these cards will even be a historical heritage.

     We cannot guarantee you with absolute certainty what the next few years will be like, but we believe that the adoption of cryptocurrencies will be much greater than it is today, including buying in establishments with cryptocurrencies and tokens will be increasingly growing.

     Many businesses already accept bitcoin, ethereum, cardano and other cryptos as a means of payment and you won't be able to stay out. If you are an entrepreneur, open your mind and don't be left behind!

     Therefore, it is very worthwhile to ask for your Credit Card and start using it to encourage these companies to continue investing in this sector and make our crypto market more and more recognized and reach its due merit!
