Our Take
Oldest CBI and the strongest published visa-free figure on this CitizenX set
CitizenX: crypto accepted as source of funds only up to 30% of the assets demonstrated. Paying the contribution in crypto adds a 5% spread. Strong passport, but crypto-majority applicants hit a hard documentation cap.
Presence: No visit required
Source: CitizenX · single-applicant all-in unless stated otherwise
