Hello everyone, it's good to be back. I'm the author of the Green Bone Saga, which began with Jade City, continued in Jade War, and concludes this week with the release of Jade Legacy. The series is an epic urban fantasy gangster family saga set in a modern Asia-inspired metropolis and spanning about 30 years. It won the World Fantasy Award, has been translated into a bunch of languages, and is optioned for TV development. I've also written three YA science fiction novels and a smattering of short stories. I did a previous AMA here for the release of Jade City and here for Jade War.
Besides finishing the biggest creative project of my life so far, I've been spending the pandemic eating takeout and watching anime. I recently played my first D&D campaign. It's been a whirlwind week, and I have to say it feels damned good to have completed the trilogy and have it out in the world.
Obligatory links: Website, Instagram, Twitter, and my Patreon, where I post Green Bone Saga short stories and bonus content. I'll be popping in and out throughout the day to answer questions. AMA!
UPDATE: Thank you all for your questions! I'm going to log off for the night because I'm traveling to Emerald City Comic Con tomorrow and not yet packed or prepared. Sorry if I didn't get to your question today, but as there were several similar themes, hopefully many of them were addressed in previous answers. I appreciate all the excitement you've shown me this week and I hope those of you reading Jade Legacy enjoy the trilogy finale.
After roughly 3 months of utilizing my Ruby as much as possible (Spotify/Cashback) and adding all rewards to DeFi + the pump from yesterday I've decided to upgrade to Jade Green as a Christmas present to myself!
Its been an awesome 3 months and can't wait to see what CDC / CRO does next year!

Merry Christmas everyone! Heres to 2022 :)
It takes way to long man. It was issued on 28th November.
(SPOILERS: Obviously don't read if you haven't finished all three books yet).
Fonda Lee... I am truly speechless!! This absolutely epic emotional bloodbath of a story that I will NEVER stop thinking about. Truly legendary. After finishing Jade War, it was almost impossible for me to imagine how the final installment could measure up. I had no idea that this story would take place over such a long period of time and am glad I didn't know going into it.
I can say without a shadow of a doubt that Hilo is the best character I have ever read in fiction. He (and pretty much everyone else in the Kaul family tbh) is so superbly written that it's truly hard to believe he wasn't a real person. I was inconsolable when he died but his ending was as perfect as it could have possibly been. Every character in this trilogy was flawless (doesn't mean I liked all of them - lol) and left their mark in a unique way.
No one I know in real life has read this series, so if anyone on here wants to talk about it, I'd love to!! Now it's time to convince everyone I know to read it :)
How many people have linked their CDC cards to the curve card?
Same as title

You can crucify me for this take, but it's true
Hey guys with jade green we get Airport lounge, have anybody tried that?

My jade green card arrived today in Australia. I activated the card and topped it up with more funds, and I tried using it at Dan Murphys then KFC, both times the card was declined. Note: I tried to use the chip/pin and the tap&fo feature.
Is there something I could have missed with the setting up of the card?
Hi guys, I’m new to CDC and it’s been almost a month I joined. I’ve been using CDC card as my daily card and loving it so far and still waiting for my physical card to be shipped. From what I understand, if I don’t want the green card I dont need to pay £50, and I can just keep using my Ruby card and get jade green’s rewards. So I’m still thinking if it’s a good idea for me to upgrade to Jade green or stay in Ruby for a few more months before deciding to upgrade. Any recommendations?
It's a specific green tea. I have no idea where to find that exact one. I know it's cheap and I know it's something simple. But I've tried over 20 different kinds of green teas and can't find it. It's a loose leaf tea of some sort though. I'm sick of going through packages and packages of green tea
Hi everybody. I just signed up for the Jade Green card and was wondering, once my virtual card is issued, can I use it right away for payments like Netflix and Spotify? Will it affect my stake in CRO for the card?
As the title says. I want to upgrade from Midnight Blue to Ruby or Jade Green, Now I am hesitating between the two though. If I were to go for Ruby. Can you upgrade to Jade Green afterwards within x-weeks or does the stake period (180 days) need to have ended first?
EDIT: Thanks everyone for the comments. I just upgraded to Ruby and the new perks apply immediately. 2% and Spotify was automatically activated. I also did not have to pay any fees (unless I had opted for a new physical card). For now, I will DCA to Jade Green in the near future. Cheers
No polls allowed on this sub, I know they're functionally identical, purely an aesthetics question.
Just wondering before I put in over $3,000+ into my debit card if the card will let me buy a peloton bike with no issues. I live in the United States. Thanks!
Will Jenny Scott (daughter of Alan Scott and played by Ysa Penarejo) suit up as Green Lantern Jade in Stargirl Season 3? if so, this is how I imagine she will look like. I made this image in Photopea.
I even hope Obsidian will appear in season 3 and join with JSA with his sister.

Hi fellow hodlers!
I’m currently building a house myself, with some works including contractors as I can’t have the resources to do all kinds of work alone.
A contractor now just gave his acceptance I pay the 12k euro bill with visa. As I have a jade green card, this could be a great cashback opportunity.
Are there any important things I should consider before going on with it? As a jade green holder my daily (and monthly) spending max is 25k euro so that should be fine. For now my bank has always let my sepa transactions to crypto.com through so I guess they also won’t make a problem of it now.
What about taxes? I live in Belgium and I pay my tax which is included in the bill I pay to the contractor, so that’s it I guess?
Any advice more than welcome!
Kind regards
I have been trying to figure this out, if you stake for this cards, will your CRO get 10% of interest (in the amount you staked for the card)?
It does not say anything in the web and I feel this information should be there.
Do I only get for staking rewards for the 3,5k locked, or for all my CRO-coins I own?
Recently I have seen a few comments from people who have received their Ruby Card after 1-2 weeks (EU). And here I am still waiting for my Jade Green Card for about 2 months (EU). This really is frustrating. I thought the higher staking tiers a getting prioritized...
I got a free Midnight Blue about 6 months ago and decided to invest £300 in CRO to upgrade to Ruby Steel for the improved benefits. I wasn't a CRO fanboy but I figured I would break even in 18 months even if CRO didn't go anywhere.
Since then I've tried to use my CDC Visa card for normal purchases wherever possible.
Today, with the recent increases in value of CRO I have upgraded to Royal Indigo/Jade Green requiring a £3000 stake. I didn't buy any more CRO apart from my original £300 investment and my 6 month staking period hadn't even expired! I now get 3% cashback, 10% interest, and Netflix free.
Thanks CDC!
Hello mechmarket!
I'm looking to give this keyboard a new home with a price below group buy cost.
Matrix ME SE (Warm Gray Bottom Plate) - Built with TX Stabilizers and SP Sacramentos Lubed and Filmed- $587 shipped SOLD
It has never been typed on with keycaps so is new! Just built it and realized have too many keyboards coming in. Will include all of the default accessories.
Thanks for taking a look! Please PM and comment if you have any interest. Happy to answer questions.
Have a nice day/night folks!
I can’t decide which color I want. 😩 What made you chose the color of your card.
Today is the day, just applied for the Jade Green Card and waiting for verification and then go go go. Not get rich quick but long term growth. Taken a while to get the coins together but it's finally happened. I would invite you all over to party but with covid we here in Western Australia have hard borders closure .
I’m thinking of going to get the Jade Green but I don’t really care for Spotify and Netflix reimbursement since my family already has a plan and we get them for free. You get a 3% back on spending with the card which is nice and 10% CRO stake rewards. However, since I am really just interested in staking, is it worth getting the card or just using Defi? Which do you think is the better deal? Currently I think defi is about 12.5% interest.
