Get your head straight. Any crypto card will in essence always be a regular bank card since the banking world still works in fiat. There will alsways be a conversion, whether automatic or manual to fiat, to load to the cards with funds you can spend.
You repeated and confirmed exactly what I wrote.
Therefore if everything was working or was on the verge of working why all the delay?
Why did Borys go with the card partner he is with now and why did he not use them earlier instead giving us lies about Novarise and CSOB?
Maybe because novarise just came along their path and those negotiations were already more advanced then with the other issuer, so they parked them until they needed them again. Easy explanations. You can negotiate with multiple partners you know.
Its like shopping online, you pick from various options the company who can deliver the fastest, and when it turns out they cant deliver on time you pick another company.
