Visa and Mastercard will lose out to Web3-based payment projects in 2022

Billionaire and former Facebook CEO Chamat Palihapitiya called out payment giants Visa and MasterCard as 2022’s biggest losers.

Palihapitiya predicts the decline of both companies during 2022 due to competition from payment projects based on Web3 and cryptocurrencies.

“My biggest business loser for 2022 is Visa and MasterCard and traditional payment rails and the entire ecosystem around it,” Chamat said in an All-In Podcast.

To him, the long-standing payment systems used worldwide are a “completely contrived duopoly that doesn’t need to exist.”
