Revolut, N26 and Monzo all have premium accounts with metal cards which are nothing than a status symbol. The banking industry has been doing this for years though with premium credit cards, so it's nothing new.

I don’t think it’s true that Monzo has a metal card.

You're correct, it does not. AFAIK Monzo does not have any paid tier accounts either.

The closest monzo has is an investor card for crowdfunding investors.

If we're talking metal cards by new-age pseudo-banks, there's also Crypto.com's MCO card.

I have one, and aside from how it's practically useless because I can't top up fiat into it (I currently have to do SGD>EUR>BTC>SGD just to use the card), it's also heavy.

Maybe I'm just the type of customer that they're not targeting.
