Mastercard sau khi phá vỡ thế bế tắc đã chuyển hướng đầu tư vào Zerohash duy trì hoạt động độc lập

【链文】Paying giant Mastercard recently changed its strategic direction after negotiations to acquire blockchain infrastructure provider Zerohash stalled. The two sides had previously engaged in serious discussions in October last year regarding a potential acquisition, with a valuation range between $1.5 billion and $2 billion, but Zerohash’s insistence on maintaining independent operations became a stumbling block for the deal. Currently, Mastercard has not given up on this relationship—sources revealed that both parties are now exploring the possibility of strategic investments. This shift reflects the traditional payment giant’s continued interest in the blockchain infrastructure sector, even if direct acquisitions have not succeeded, they are still seeking to establish a presence in this field through investment approaches.
