Which deposit method is best in Egypt — crypto or local bank? Here's the honest breakdown.

Local Bank

Local bank deposits apply the bonus automatically, with no network fee and no exchange-rate loss. Easiest option.

Crypto (USDT)

Crypto works too, but you apply the bonus manually after deposit, and network fees or exchange rates may reduce the amount received.
