Built on crypto rails.
Backed by Mastercard's 200-country network.
While CT argued about prices,
was quietly signing 85+ companies.
The next phase of payments is already being built.
Mastercard just chose who builds it with them.

Hey look! Cosmos!
Ethereum missing
Go Supra!
So prices are going to tumble to make it competitive thanks. 🫶🏾
Good list on “What to avoid and never touch”
Seems like those aren’t yet chosen…maybe only first round? It doesn’t make sense to have so many of each.
No Algo
Lmao
Meh, clearly a last ditch effort to try and delay irrelevancy and keep unnecessary fees. The funny thing is how Mastercard is literally not needed for blockchain based payments.
Cosmos,let’s go!
crypto transactions do not need Mastercard, why are we cheering? Or do you want to exchange crypto with “dirty FIAT”
No chainlink and going with supra instead, interesting

>The Mastercard Crypto Partner Program reflects a core belief that the next phase of on-chain payments will be built **through collaboration.**
>Through the program, **participants will engage with Mastercard teams on the design and direction of future products and services**, including solutions that aim to bring the speed and programmability that digital assets offer together with established card rails and global commerce flows.
>By creating a shared framework for collaboration, the program helps align innovation across the ecosystem while **supporting consistent standards and responsible growth.**
It’s basically just an advisory board for Mastercard. There’s no indication theyll actually be using infrastructure from those 85 companies. Mastercard already has its own blockchain and a dedicated team building digital asset infrastructure.
No chainlink, etherium, algo etc?
What, they pick names out of a hat?😂
Shitcoin galore
SOS$ 🚀
Yea, sure. Thats the font that Mastercard would use.
Where is Loopring
Most of them never hear about.
Seems best coins like eth and link got taken by Visa
Partnerships in crypto do not mean what you think they mean
Lmao what a shitshow
Let me guess, they’re all American, yes?
Reminds me of the xrp people claiming iso 20202020202
This thread is clickbait
I’ve been in crypto since 2019 what is this should’ve guessed these banks would start up their own sub companies to propagate. Almost none of these are the best options let alone the most popular ones
These old rails are old news. We need new rails with lower fees for both the business and the consumer. In comes Flexa.
Ava Labs isn’t a Blockchain. It’s basically the marketing arm of the Avalanche blockchain network.
Solana and ripple blockchain 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ahh man, not BTC or Eth?? /s
Anyone who understands how this crypto projects works knows very well that it is a colossal bullshit 🤣
Wtf is Tempo?
Nexo coin will explode. They just reentered USA and now this. 🚀🚀🚀
