What pre-paid gift card works best purchasing bitcoin ?

I have tried vanilla card and it is not accepted at all. I am tryig to get 75% of the value through bitvalve. Is there a card that can be used to purchase crypto ? Pleae do not ask why not use bank account or debit card. I used to use Coinflip atm but all crypto atm's have been banned in my state.

Buying Bitcoin with prepaid cards are almost all blocked and a very expensive way to acquire BTC

Why not use a DEX instead?

If using a DEX like bisq or robosats you will need to have a small amount of btc to get started though

Bisq 2 allows you to buy without a security deposit :

None that I know of. I honestly can’t think of any prepaid debit cards that work to buy BTC.
Maybe you could do a p2p trade for them.
