BlockBeats News, April 29th, according to CoinDesk's report, Mastercard is further deepening its involvement in the digital asset economy, announcing on Monday a new global feature to support stablecoin payments within its vast merchant network.
The payment giant is partnering with the cryptocurrency exchange platform OKX to launch the "OKX Card," aimed at bridging crypto trading and Web3 activities with everyday spending.
