Gate News 消消息，April 8, Web3 asset data platform RootData has整理了 Mastercard’s cryptocurrency business partners, with the number already exceeding 100 (specifically 104), covering multiple key areas such as public chains, stablecoins, trading platforms, risk-control services, and payment infrastructure. Compared with a strategy that leans toward “curated partnerships” with a certain traditional payment giant, Mastercard is trying to become the connecting layer for all payment links. From a structural perspective, this network can be understood as a “multi-node collaborative system.” Mastercard’s strategy is essentially to lower the access threshold and expand network externalities: it connects with more chains and asset issuers upstream, and attracts payment institutions and financial terminals to connect downstream. Its strategy is closer to the center of the next-generation payment system. RootData has continuously released multiple editions of crypto project ecosystem maps, nominating Web3 ecosystem partners that serve upstream customers such as a certain traditional payment giant, a certain payment platform, and a certain CEX. It is reported that RootData welcomes Web3 project teams to claim their materials and will continue to track and open more entry points for disclosing project business relationships.
