ether.fi Cash
A genuinely different architecture: keep full self-custody of 250+ assets and spend through a credit line instead of selling - with tiered memberships, travel cashback and premium Visa perks. The risks are equally clear: borrowing costs, portfolio volatility/liquidation risk, and a protection program that was still 'not yet live' at review time.
RedotPay
A heavily-marketed APAC crypto card whose fees and terms we could not independently verify (bot-blocked pages) - a verify listing: confirm the current fee schedule and issuer on their terms page before loading funds.
