Mastercard has announced the launch of the "Crypto Partner Program" aimed at promoting the use of digital assets in cross-border transfers, business-to-business payments, and global fund distribution scenarios.
The company stated that the program will explore blockchain-based payment solutions to enhance cross-border payment efficiency and reduce costs by partnering with cryptocurrency infrastructure providers.
Market observers believe that as traditional payment institutions increase their focus on on-chain settlements, the role of digital assets in the global payment system is gradually strengthening.
