I mean it is 'only' a debit card to your USD on a Coinbase account...likely PayPal will have more utility than
this with their BTC/Crypto launch..
Based on Coinbase's card page, it seems like you can choose the "crypto" you want to pay with, and it converts that crypto to USD at point of sale. Pretty much like how Xapo did it with their debit cards in the past which is really really convenient.
Pretty much. This is just good in a way that current Coinbase users won't be needing to again submit KYC/AML information on a separate custodial service; and it makes it more convenient for them too.
