According to @MikeSilagadze, Ether.fi’s metal cards are now available and all Pinnacle users can place orders immediately, giving traders a concrete rollout milestone to track for adoption and usage metrics (source: @MikeSilagadze on X, Dec 19, 2025). Lux and Core tiers will open "soon" and the cards are free, outlining a tiered distribution timeline relevant for monitoring product penetration across the user base (source: @MikeSilagadze on X, Dec 19, 2025). Core users must provide a refundable deposit to receive a physical card as a fraud-prevention step, defining the initial acquisition friction and cash-flow requirement for that tier (source: @MikeSilagadze on X, Dec 19, 2025). The announcement did not include token, transaction volume, or specific launch dates beyond "soon," so traders should anchor on immediate availability for Pinnacle and await official rollout updates for Lux and Core (source: @MikeSilagadze on X, Dec 19, 2025).
