Better to cro-w with knife instead
If CRO does well CAW does amazing

So it says CDC buys the CRO which it gives back to customers as cashback? If that would be the case there hadnt been a need to mint 70B tokens.

Hubby and I have been using CDC’s debit cards for 4 years now as our main cards, my level is higher than hubby’s. In 4 years I’ve earned ~$4200 so far, your rewards are in CRO, which you can sell or compound through staking. That’s approx $1K a year so far, there’s also additional perks, free Airport lounge access for example, which we have used quite a lot. Plus, the card itself is good advertising, as I’ve been asked about it a few times, love the metal cards. All hubby’s CRO rewards I collect and send them to myself, they get used continuously. We only use ACH and load US$ free, but you can add crypto if you want, but personally I don’t see the point in doing that 🤷‍♀️
I’d highly recommend the cards, but it’s important when you get the cards, they have credit cards, but haven’t used them.

You’re right. The “benefits” from the unburn is that Kris and Trump being able to unload tens of billions of CRO onto the bag holders. They can play with the supply and manipulate it more with this “reserve”.
I’m going to assume you are a bot account now.

CRO proper dead, DOGE maybe some life but yeah just flip all to BTC and check back in another 4 years

"Burned Forever **200.00M CRO"**

.23 DOGE and .28 CRO...

All talk no action...Buy and prove you're old school CRO.

You will be rich with inflated CRO. 100 billion coins….

Monaco acquired the crypto.com domain and rebranded to Crypto.com, positioning CRO as the key utility token for the expanded ecosystem, including the exchange, DeFi offerings, cards, and more. This was a strategic move aimed at creating a stronger, more recognizable global brand in the crypto space. The community was provided a clear timeline to swap their MCO tokens for CRO as part of the transition.
Regarding token supply changes, including the minting of 70 billion CRO (which reversed a prior 2021 burn), the governance process functioned as designed per the chain’s rules—whether one agrees with the outcome or not. The original burn and subsequent minting via community vote are publicly trackable on the Cronos blockchain.

The core topic here is the SVF license in the UAE, not personal investments. Crypto.com became the first Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) to receive a Stored Value Facilities (SVF) license from the Central Bank of the UAE. This approval enables UAE residents to pay government-related fees—including public utilities, parking, and other services—directly on Crypto.com’s rails. 
Payments are made in crypto but instantly converted to AED (or approved dirham-backed stablecoins) for settlement, so the government receives stable value. This setup effectively allows a regulated crypto company to provide payment infrastructure for a sovereign government’s services. It demonstrates how crypto can bridge borders and traditional systems in a compliant way.
In the bigger picture, this kind of regulatory green light highlights Crypto.com’s progress in securing approvals across multiple jurisdictions. Over time, expanded real-world utility like this—paying everyday government obligations via crypto—could drive broader adoption, even if the direct financial benefits aren’t immediate for non-UAE users. It underscores the potential for seamless, borderless financial rails as more countries explore similar integrations.

You’ll be “rich” in inflated CRO tokens. I have 3 times the original number from 2020 by restaking every time, but the value went slightly down. That’s without inflation too….

The Cronos POS chain enforces a maximum supply of 100B CRO at the consensus layer. Governance can allocate existing supply, but it cannot push total supply above the hard cap without a chain-breaking rules change.
Oh thats the neat part - just break the rule lol

Zach Rynes from Chainlink, a former “ETH maxi,” said in a recent interview:
*"The ultrasound money story was perfect - adoption directly tied to deflationary supply. Then revenue fell 99.9% because they gave MEV and congestion fees to L2s."*

He may be right about the 99.9% revenue drop - but I think he's missing a crucial point: **this decline in revenue was inevitable in the midterm, regardless of the L2 strategy.**
Without L2s, the following would likely have played out instead:
* Companies like Coinbase would have simply built their own L1s (e.g., BNB, CRO), completely internalizing the revenue and further fragmenting the ecosystem - with Ethereum seeing none of that upside.
* Transaction fees were always going to fall dramatically in the mid-to-long term - this is essentially an iron law across all blockchains, because ultra-cheap transactions are a prerequisite for many real-world use cases to become economically viable
My point is: **the revenue compression Zach describes was inevitable.** And if Ethereum's economic zone - built around tightly integrated and interoperable L2s - actually works, it's a far better outcome than every major company spinning up their own isolated L1.
The real question (and my main concern) is this: Will Base and other major L2s remain committed to Ethereum long-term? And will transaction volume grow enough to offset the lower per-transaction revenue? This isn’t Ethereum’s only challenge, but it’s a critical one - and when it comes to revenue from transactions (which ultimately need to be very cheap), **every blockchain faces t**his structural constraint.

Lots of variables. Framework I'd use:
\*\*Custody first.\*\* Custodial cards (Crypto.com, Bybit, Coinbase, RedotPay, Binance) mean the crypto behind your card sits at the CEX. They can freeze it or get hacked. Easy onboarding, usually $0 issuance. Self-custody (Gnosis Pay, Ether.fi Cash, Solflare) debits straight from your wallet. No CEX in the middle, more friction setting up.
\*\*"Credit" is mostly marketing.\*\* Most cards labeled "credit" are prepaid or charge-card hybrids that auto-settle. Only Coinbase Credit Card and Gemini Credit Card report to US bureaus afaik.
\*\*No-KYC\*\* = anonymous prepaid with tiny caps (€150-€2,500). Real spending limits always need KYC somewhere.
\*\*Fees that bite:\*\*
\- FX spread quietly eats cashback. Gnosis Pay sDAI route is 0%. Cryptocom non-base currency is 2-4%.
\- Tier-lock. Cryptocom Visa wants $4K+ CRO staked 180 days for 3% cashback. CRO down \~95% from ATH, real principal risk.
\- Top-up fees and ATM allowances vary wildly.
If you're yield-focused specifically: self-custody with productive collateral is the structurally different design. Etherfi Cash spends against weETH staking yield. Gnosis Pay's sDAI auto-swap settles in a yield-bearing position by default.
Region kills a lot of options before you start.
Full disclosure: I built [sweepbase.net](http://sweepbase.net) which tracks 141 of these with fees/regions side by side. Drop your region + monthly spend and I'll narrow it down.

ya ya and do let me know how has CRO performed stbau

“Honorary PhD” in the hard sciences does not exist. I’ve read and lived through enough of CDC’s press releases, commercials, and hopium while understanding the math behind it to know better.
There was indeed a time CDC and CRO could well have been a sort of utility/stable coin of sorts and it had possibilities. It was a wasted opportunity in favor of greed and fanfare.
Instead they chose to be untrustworthy and yes, the massive unburning against the wishes of all voting groups besides management did it for me. Now add Trump Media Group, combined with what I saw in my account after more than half a decade, and yeah….
It’s not what you would call an uniformed, ignorant, new to crypto person.

Over six years I now have over 300% of the original CRO I started with from re-staking every time from 5-20%.
I have three times the CRO and it was $30 less than the original amount.

been using my crypto.com debit card and earned decent $CRO cashback which I play around on defi as its free but always have the option to put it back again to the card. Recently, they just announced that their new Credit card can earn you $BTC cashback!

both of them, yeah. BitMart took me like 2 weeks to fully set up, apple pay was the worst part, kept failing tokenization for whatever reason. eventually worked.
FX at checkout is fine on paper but i ran it next to my regular bank card on the same purchase once and the gap wasn't zero.
bybit one was less of a headache here, separate EU entity so onboarding was actually fast for once. holding USDT specifically, it just spends without converting, which is the bit that matters because you're not getting some surprise rate. crypto. com i'd skip honestly. the CRO cashback thing has been bleeding for years and you only find out after you lock in.
oh and don't trust the "works across EU" line on any of these without testing in YOUR country. mine took two tries to activate properly.

OK when CRO = 10$ ?
