Gemini Credit Card
The most regulated issuer context for a crypto-rewards credit card (NYDFS trust, WebBank-issued Mastercard World Elite): 4% gas/EV/transit, 3% dining, 2% groceries, 1% elsewhere, no annual fee, rewards in BTC or 50+ cryptos. It is a credit product (bureau approval, no crypto funding), US-only, and the issuer carries a 2025-2026 withdrawal-security-hold complaint pattern at the exchange level.
Moon
Watch - do not load funds. The Lightning-funded virtual card worked until late November 2025, then cards were blocked en masse and withdrawals stalled (documented cases). Support has gone silent while the site still markets the product.
