Visa's and FTX's Partnership Goes Global

FTX, one of the world's largest crypto exchanges, is expanding its partnership with Visa, one of the world’s biggest financial services companies, to 40 more countries in addition to the U.S. FTX will offer customers a Visa debit card that will enable them to pay with cryptocurrency at Visa's 80 million affiliated merchants. The head of Visa's crypto division has called it "a big deal for the crypto industry." At the top of today’s Real Vision Crypto Daily Briefing, Marco Olivera and Moritz Seibert talk about what expansion of the FTX-Visa tie-up means for mainstream crypto adoption. Also up for discussion: a big leak of Celsius Network data included in a court filing in the bankruptcy process, with hundreds of thousands of users affected; and the Reserve Bank of India’s launch of an e-rupee. And David Siemer, the co-founder and CEO of digital asset manager Wave Financial, joins Marco and Moritz for a survey of the crypto VC landscape. Plus, we share a video dispatch from Real Vision Managing Editor Samuel Burke on the major themes and topics of discussion at the World Blockchain Summit in Dubai.
