Are cryptocurrency rewards credit cards a good idea?

• 1.5 percent with no CRO stake (at the Midnight tier)
• Up to 6.5 percent with an active CRO stake between $500-$500,000

The new series of Crypto.com credit cards offers welcome bonuses and ongoing rewards-earning potential across five tiers of membership. To access the program’s higher-level rewards, however, you’ll need to lock up (or “stake”) as much as $500,000 in Crypto.com’s CRO currency for a minimum of 12 months from account opening.

In addition, these cards only earn rewards in the form of CRO tokens, making them a good choice for those who are already committed to Crypto.com’s ecosystem or who are willing to lock up a substantial amount of capital to gain access to higher membership tiers.
