This wont last too long. I listened to TenX cofounder Julian Hosp this morning and he said, and I trust him, that they will have their cards all replaced very soon, by end of first quarter he said they will have all their international cards released as well, all on the new providers platform.
Also he added that TenX had already been working on replacing the provider they were using so they unlike others are further along in the replacement phase.
He expects this inconvenience to improve TenX market share as they will be back up and running before the competition. Listen to his video here:
Thank you for the video!
I have no doubt that this is temporary, but it is a real pain in the ass, especially if this is your only way of actually using your crypto in the real world.
But, a big part of me is glad I don't have to walk around with a VISA card in my pocket, supporting the status quo:)
This is like a purging of the big status quo whales from the financial system. They're dying off.
cocaine is a hell of a drug
Someone at VISA finally wised up to the fact that they are in the process of being replaced. Great idea to refuse business in the segment that is the most rapidly expanding... crypto.
The "big guys of finance" are going to be shooting themselves in the foot with more and more regularity. And the main unintended consequence will be their extinction. Some things never change:)
Grab the popcorn and your favorite beverage, sit back, and enjoy the show! What a great time to be alive.
Visa: "Wait a second, we are enabling our competitor to wipe us out! Should we maybe stop that?"
haha
UPDATE
Email I received from Wave Crest, the card issuer:
hahahaha....hahahahah...hahahahahaha..jahahahahahahaha..with the smile...hahahahahahahaha xDDDDDDDDD
I think mastercard will takeover now or some new shit ...they can't stop it because they don't know how to regulate it...very nice!! just shut it all up!! easy!!!! bastard visa...they already lost billions...crypto don't sleep ,...ahahahahahaha...that smile though...it reflects how confused they are!!! been taken by the face and dragged and now that they made money they simply go out and say ...no!
here is my statement to visa...
I love it!
Crypto and block chain will steamroll these guys soon enough. No worries!
I agree. Even Kurt Russell agrees:)
Amazing film & great performance!
Perfect gif for me! I’m a Canadian, so I’m a hockey fan!
Hi all, Wirex community manager here.
We do give our sincerest apologies for those affected. The ban took pretty much the whole market by suprise. We are working as hard as possible to get our new cards out.
A quick update on the card situation:
Yesterday,one of our partners who provides the entire Crypto Industry with VISA prepaid debit cards, received direction from VISA to immediately close all accounts.
Unfortunately, we were given little notice by the supplier to prepare for this change.
We’d like to assure you that all your funds are safe and that they will be moved from your blocked VISA cards to your Wirex accounts ASAP. Additional information in regards to the refund procedure will be emailed to all our users within the next few days.
What we are doing about it
We have been working with a new card issuer for the last couple of months and are very close to being able to release our new cards. As part of this changeover, our new card issuer will provide free replacements to all users who already have cards.
You’ll still be able to buy bitcoin using your local bank card and we will be increasing daily limits until we release new cards.

Thank you for chiming in, but I do have a question.
Was this really unexpected? It seems like everyone was preparing in some way for a switch.
exactly what I thought too...I doubt you will have a reply ...
I completely understand your concern here. Let me clear a few things up.
We were preparing a switch to be able to provide for customers outside of Europe, as our old provider only served the EU.
So yes, what happened was totally unexpected, unfortunately, and so we had little to no time to prepare.
We do expect to have a solution in the very near future, and again we apologize for any inconvenience caused to anyone in the community. Any cards ordered after the 1st of December will be refunded.
Thanks for sharing this important info
Coincidence ? or Secret war on Crypto?
According to Visa Europe, they terminated WaveCrest's membership due to "continued non-compliance with our operating rules". Maybe a simple matter of compliance, maybe not - we'll see when the new card issuer get up and running. In any case, nothing too sinister:)
Some bad news for Bitcoin lovers and good on the other side for exchanges.
good post..please upvote me @bestskhan2017
