Crypto Card Report

The Crypto Card Report

A monthly dataset on what crypto cards actually pay. Every edition carries the same three things: the computed effective rate across every tracked card, the gap between that and what each card markets, and every data change logged with the date I made it. Right now that's 13 cards and 50 logged changes.

All editions

A month appears here once there's dated data behind it — I'd rather skip an edition than pad one out. Nothing gets a quiet update: every correction lands in the edition for the month I made it, including the ones where I was wrong the first time.
