Rewards As Earned Via Gemini Credit Card

Boost for Bitcoin DeFi With Smart Marketing

Not only in widening Gemini’s operations, the Bitcoin Credit Card could have a lasting impact on the Bitcoin ecosystem as well — particularly in its intersection with DeFi.

Since every transaction made with the card is rewarded in Bitcoin, it will also help in gently onboarding users into managing BTC wallets and interacting with digital assets in real time.

As these users accumulate and withdraw their rewards, they become candidates for future participation in Bitcoin-native DeFi services. They are likely to use the earned Bitcoin for staking, lending or other services. This will in turn can help in boosting the ongoing efforts of bringing Bitcoin to DeFi.

Further, Michael Saylor’s public embrace of Gemini’s new card lends it the kind of institutional credibility that could accelerate adoption.

Thus, as Gemini’s Bitcoin Credit Card finds its way into more wallets, Tesla Cybertruck incentive comes as a strong marketing tip.
