The Visa CEO Alfred Kelly says that his company is set to embrace bitcoin (BTC)-related business in earnest, and claims that partnerships in both the crypto and stablecoin sectors are already in the pipelines – while adding his voice to claims that cash is in decline.

Speaking on a Fortune podcast, Kelly claimed that the coronavirus pandemic had hit cash hard, stating,

“Cash and cheques will be with us for some time, but I do think their usage will decline at an accelerated rate because of the pandemic.”

He stated that it was important that Visa was “in the middle” of the crypto industry, even if the path forward for coins like BTC was still not exactly clear.

Once again, he sought to draw a line between what he termed “digital currencies” backed by fiats including the dollar – likely a reference to stablecoins – and “more speculative assets,” cryptoassets such as BTC.

And once more, doubling down on similar sentiments expressed in January, he called the coin “digital gold,” and outlined Visa’s BTC-related plans, explaining,

“We’re trying to ... enable the purchase of bitcoin on Visa credentials. And working with some bitcoin wallets, we will allow bitcoin to be translated into a fiat currency.”

This, he added, would allow BTC to “immediately be able to be used at any of the 70 million places around the world where Visa is accepted.”

In the stablecoins field, meanwhile, Kelly said that Visa was currently working with “about 35 different players.”

He stated that fiat-pegged tokens have “a strong potential” to “become a new payment vehicle,” and act as an “accelerant” in “emerging markets around the world.” He said,

“These are currencies that are fiat-backed, but we’re allowing this translation ... into a fiat currency and in a wallet where there’s a Visa card. And again that Visa card can be used with the translated digital currency over to the fiat currency to make purchases.”

But when pushed, he refused to make any bold predictions about the fate of crypto. He stated that he could not forecast whether crypto would “take off” in the mainstream, adding,

“Are we going to say about crypto five years that it was a fad, or is it going to become extremely mainstream? I’m not smart enough to know. But what I am smart enough to do is to make sure that our company is in the middle of it today.” Open / Comment

2021-03-15 16:00:13 ​​Post-COVID-19, Bitcoin & Co May Help UK Escape from Economic Funk

After the UK’s decidedly mixed response to the coronavirus pandemic, the nation has proven something of a frontrunner in all things vaccine-related, leading it to start easing out of its latest two-month-plus national lockdown on March 8 ahead of its European counterparts – almost a year since the country began its first lockdown.

The economic story since Spring 2020 has proven to be full of woe, and last week the British Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak delivered a budget that attempted to plug the gaping chasm in the UK economy. Included were delayed tax rises, increased government borrowing, an extension of the furlough project, corporate rates rises and yet more short-term public spending.

The budget has already been on the end of stern criticism from the influential economic think-tank the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) calling some of Sunak’s measures “unanswerable,” per the Guardian.

Later, the IFS was harsher still, labeling the Chancellor “Scrooge Sunak” after the budget also unveiled government plans to slash spending in the longer term, reported the BBC.

Even ex-Prime Minister Theresa May waded into the debate. Per Sky News, May claimed that the budget had neglected the innovation and research & development sectors.

Sunak, it appears, is damned if he does and damned if he doesn’t – and it all points to a bigger problem identified last month and before – the fact that Office of National Statistics data shows GDP slowed by almost 10% in 2020, and that there is a USD 84bn hole that needs plugging, per Bloomberg.

With Brexit still driving economic uncertainty in the UK, some might argue that the country badly needs a growth engine, ideally one based on new technology, and with the power to disrupt the existing financial sector, which London ruled the roost over during the European Union era.

Some might argue that such a growth engine already exists, if the government will only be brave enough to embrace it: crypto. Open / Comment

2021-03-12 12:01:32 ​​Credits Blockchain and Fintech Project. Coin CS.


Credits may be of interest to those seeking to invest long-term and in real technology.

The project is on a market since 2018, and in the past three years team has proven their hard work by bringing up a blockchain protocol with distinguishing speed and decentralization metrics.
The transaction is less than a second and the transaction price is less than a cent. Full decentralization and ecosystem in place. Public Speed Test date for which is expected to be announced very soon promises to secure Credits top position among other protocols.

More news is expected by the end of the month on the delivery of the new release of Credits Digital Bank. The team announced last year the launch of the work on Neobanking for crypto and fiat clients. They have got a strong belief and vision for the product and aiming to build service allowing them to gain a great share of users.

Why CS is a must

very low entry-level and low risk
most of the releases ( which were in development since last year) are in a pipeline this year
great technology of their products, you can install wallets from Good Play and Apple Store already
the unique protocol that has got the full potential to replace Ethereum

CS is showing a steady rise last month. However, it is still very undervalued. Considering a range of Credits products and the 2021 roadmap, they undoubtedly will be reaching new levels of attention from crypto society.

CS is a rare find in today’s market. For more details and your further research please visit their website https://credits.com/ Open / Comment

2021-03-11 16:00:18 ​​FX Branch of Japanese Giant SBI Planning Crypto Move – Report

Another subsidiary of the Japanese financial giant the SBI Group, FX Clearing Trust, is reportedly targetting crypto-related business expansion.

Per an official release, the firm has now acquired a license for investment trust-related business operations, and will rename itself the SBI Clearing Trust.

The firm was set up in 2014, and has capital reserves of over USD 1.8m. Although the official release made no direct mention of crypto-related developments, Nikkei, reported that the SBI arm was also planning to expand into cryptoasset investment-related operations in the near future.

The company stated that in recent times, the need for trusts in finance had “become more sophisticated and widespread,” adding that in order to “respond to the diversification” of the investment market it was “not limiting” itself to the FX market.

SBI operates a number of crypto-related subsidiaries, including its own domestic crypto exchange, SBI VC Trade, and the mining firm SBI Crypto.

The most recent move comes in a busy month for SBI and its quickly expanding crypto and blockchain operations. Last week, the firm announced that it would be using its blockchain and distributed ledger technology prowess to digitize local gift certificates issued by the Chamber of Commerce in Miyama, Fukuoka Prefecture.

The Miyama is SBI’s sixth such blockchain tie-in with digital gift certificate initiatives organized by city governments as an attempt to revitalize their local economies – allowing users to spend their certificates using smartphone apps.

However, the developments have been somewhat overshadowed by events elsewhere in Asia, with SBI supremo Yoshitaka Kitao telling the Financial Times this week that SBI was set to pull out of Hong Kong due to recently imposed restrictions on business “freedom.”

He also claimed that other Japanese firms were likely to follow suit, but stated that the firms in question did not have the courage to admit it yet. Kitao said,

“They are unlike me. I’m a very straightforward guy. But all the others, in their bellies, they think they should move out or won’t invest more in Hong Kong.” Open / Comment
