AFAIK, the difference between the OP's card platform and all others comes down to fees, freedom, and privacy.


..................        OP's eMunie debit card      All others AFAIK      
   fees    customer: 1 cent *
merchant: zero
customer: varies **
merchant: ~1%
freedom         yes3rd party or govt can block funds
privacy         yes3rd party or govt can track your purchases.

*(eMunie) customer pays 1 cent per transaction but initial card cost can be ~$4 - $25 depending on if you create it or order it. Card never expires.  Transactions are in native crypto (EMU or one of many token assets) without involving fiat conversion. Speed  < 10 seconds.
**(others) customer has to provide 3rd party info to satisfy AML/KYC regs.  3rd Party conversion required to fiat for merchant along with those fees.

Edited with footnotes, etc.
