I’m excited to hear Revolut is launching its new card! It’s rolling out first in the UK and across the EU, though unfortunately it won’t be available in Hungary, Switzerland, or Portugal just yet.

Solana, Etherlink, Berachain, Corn, and TAC-all shall feel the sting of Lombard’s abandonment. It’s like watching a rat flee a sinking ship, except the ship is on fire, and the rat is carrying a suitcase of gold.
