Neobanks Tier List 🧵

S:

@gnosispay: Self-custodial + fiat rails; clean crypto <> fiat bridge with IBAN options, best for EU users. No TX fees.

@ether_fi: Most comprehensive spectrum of native yield opportunities + card with cashback & perks. No FX fees in USD.

@UR_global: Multi-currency money app with card and off-ramp; great UX and usability with full global banking rail access. Minimal fees.

@Thorwallet: Non-custodial wallet with partner Swiss IBAN/card options; great onchain <> banked flow. Minimal fees.

A:

@plasma: Stablecoin-native neobank concept with running virtual/physical card with 4% cashback & 10% native yield, no IBAN yet.

@stables_money: Global USD account for simple top-ups and worldwide easy card spend; strong in the APAC region.

@AviciMoney: Full-scale neobank with cheap-tier crypto cards, an internet native trust score, unsecured loans, and home mortgages onchain. Big cook by @RamXBT.

@Tap_Fintech: Straightforward app with EU IBAN + UK details and a good card. Average fees, and routing that just works for basic crypto <> fiat moves.

@useTria: Self-custodial neobank with great crypto cards and bank connectivity; big potential. IBAN/SWIFT has to roll out soon.

B:

@wirexapp: Veteran player with personal EUR IBAN, card, rewards, and wide country support. Don't like the fee structure.

@Fiat24Official: Wallet-linked Swiss IBAN + debit card. Pretty good usability, but the UI is outdated IMO.

@plutus: EU IBAN/UK and decent cashback. Great for power users, though many perks can depend on your plan.

@KASTcard: Strong global crypto card with high limits. No personal IBAN; conversions are simple, great as a spender, not your full bank.

C:

@Nexo: Exchange-first app with a card and select EUR IBAN support. Works well inside the Nexo ecosystem, but banking features and fees vary a lot by jurisdiction/tier.

@GetPyra: "Spend without selling" UPS using a secured credit line. No IBAN yet; more of a clever credit primitive than a full neobank, but useful for tax optimization.

@neobankless: Brazil-first: Pix → USDC global account and a card on the roadmap. No IBAN and card yet live; promising regional play still in early build/coverage mode.

D:

@cryptocom: centralized exchange app with a popular card with SEPA/transfer support, but requires heavy staking requirements, and has regional shutdowns.

@Bybit_Official: Fully custodial with no IBAN available. If you're ok with centralization, this may be for you.

What else did I miss?

Hope you enjoyed this post and found some new VALUABLE information.

Have you ever FOMOed at highs and sold the absolute low?

That's your brain's "factory settings" working against you.

Here are 10 ESSENTIAL mistakes you must acknowledge and avoid 🧵 Image
1/➣ Loss Aversion

Losing money hurts more than gaining it. Winning $1000 doesn't match the pain of losing $1000.

For example, if your investment drops 50% and more bad news comes, you can sell to cut losses. However, due to loss aversion, some prefer to wait, fearing loss from selling.
2/➣ Overconfidence

"You're not a good trader, everything is just pumping" - seems familiar?

We tend to overestimate our abilities. We get lucky a few times and think we're smarter than we are.

The key to beating overconfidence is solid risk management strategies.

If you could return in time and buy $TIA at a $320m market cap, would you? The answer is obvious.

Well, you actually can.

$AVAIL is one of the best bets of this bull market. Here's why 🧵 Image
1/➣ What's @AvailProject?

Avail serves as a unification layer that enables modular execution layers to scale and interoperate in a trustless way.

It features three key products ↓

- Avail Data Availability
- Avail Nexus
- Avail Fusion Security

We'll analyze each of them. Image
2/➣ Key Features

- Avail DA: A data availability layer, providing data for anyone, including other blockchains, to build upon.

Avail uses validity proofs, allowing developers and users to independently verify data availability without relying on Avail's assurance. Image

I've been in crypto for 7+ years and I've seen my portfolio go to 0 multiple times.

I can confidently state that by the end of this bull run, the majority will exit broke.

Here's how you can avoid it 🧵 Image
1/➣ Keep only liquid assets

The thesis is simple: even if your $1,000 investment pumps to $100k if the asset lacks liquidity, you won't be able to capitalize on it. Acting quickly is as crucial as the investment itself.

The recent $GIGA case is a prime example of this.
2/➣ Always set invalidations

Whenever you buy a coin, always have an invalidation plan. This could be a fundamental trigger (narrative cooling down/legal issues), or a technical trigger (break of key support).

There's no shame in closing at a loss for a better entry later.

1/➣ Origins

While revolutionary, Bitcoin's original architecture posed significant limitations for DeFi.

Core design elements and their limitations were the UTXO model, limited scripting, lack of Turing completeness, big block sizes, and slow transaction speed. Image

Reality check: Crypto is a tough industry that is heavily controlled.

Whales and VCs will constantly try to outsmart you.

Here are 5 secrets that will help you fight back 🧵 Image
1/➣ Don't HODL

"Just HODL and you'll make it" - a familiar phrase, right? Well, it's wrong.

Outside of Bitcoin and perhaps Ethereum, you cannot blindly HODL an asset.

The altcoin space is incredibly volatile; even the TOP 10 projects can go to ZERO in a heartbeat.
➣ Here is a snapshot of top projects from December 2017.

How many are still at the top? Exactly. You need to stop holding your bags for years and take profits!

"But what about the tech?" - All these projects had revolutionary tech at the time, so it's no argument. Image
