I expect this to keep happening with these card networks

I wonder when the card networks will actually admit that bitcoin (perhaps also crypto) is a threat to them and start fighting in earnest.

Are not these events proving they are already fighting it?

I think this card may have been shut down for compliance reasons. Maybe too many fraud/illicit complaints were raised.

Yeah, this is the bearish case for Fold. While the duopoly we have with the card networks could prevent this to some extent, the “crypto” card companies aren’t really a threat at this point in time.

Wrong questionn. Right question: why bitcoiners still use these cards and are not the ones that fight against them. These cards are the pure fiat evil disguised in bitcoin services comnpanies.

Because they are useful

Yeah this is just going to keep happening again and again.

Until the merchant cards themselves are begging the well networked bitcoin / lightning service providers to connect, and lobbying congress to have it whitelisted.

Stay in your lane, know your lane, obey the traffic rules. Whatever ;)
