Goblin Card

The strongest physical no-KYC card pitch: a real Mastercard with ATM access, 0% FX and 0% ATM fees, multi-asset deposits and privacy-preserving support channels. The trade-offs are a $350 entry price, 3.5-4% deposit fees and an unlicensed custodial balance - treat it as a privacy tool, not a bank account.
