That’s a significant move for crypto adoption! Mastercard teaming up with Kraken to let millions of users in Europe and the UK spend Bitcoin at over 150 million merchants could really bridge the gap between digital assets and everyday purchases. It’s a practical step toward making Bitcoin less of a speculative investment and more of a usable currency. Kraken’s established reputation as a reliable exchange likely makes this appealing to Mastercard, and the scale of their merchant network—150 million — means this could expose Bitcoin to a massive mainstream audience.
