    Yeah, it's marketing now. And later, it will be used/loaned for seemingly academic articles/exhibits about commerce and crypto sponsored by Visa.

    Who is their target market exactly? IME (at least in Europe) you get either Visa or Mastercard depending on what your bank uses, and I don't think there are any differences.
