#Mastercard Partners With Chainlink To Enable Direct #On-Chain Crypto Purchases
Mastercard and
$LINK have announced a partnership allowing cardholders to purchase cryptocurrency directly on-chain through decentralized exchanges.
The collaboration integrates Swapper Finance, XSwap #DEX, Shift4 Payments, and ZeroHash to enable compliant fiat-to-crypto conversions.
ZeroHash provides compliance, custody, and transaction infrastructure for regulated smart contract consumption.
The Swapper Finance app went live Tuesday, connecting Mastercard's 3 billion cardholders to on-chain #trading environments.
Chainlink co-founder Sergey Nazarov highlighted the convergence between traditional finance and decentralized finance through this #partnership.
Mastercard previously added stablecoin settlement support in April and partnered with OKX for a new crypto card.
$LINK surged 13% following the announcement as markets responded positively to mainstream adoption progress.
