Around the world, more than 25 digital currency wallets have linked their services to Visa, giving users an easy way to spend from their digital currency balance using a Visa debit or prepaid credential — anywhere Visa is accepted.

One of the biggest advantages is the Visa Direct system, which will allow consumers to convert digital currencies quickly and easily. It is closely linked to Visa’s FastTrack program, which in turn aims to help fintech companies integrate into Visa’s global network.

Visa adds that the research team has been focusing on blockchain for several years, and one of the latest investments was Anchorage last year, a company that is building a security infrastructure for the digital currency ecosystem.
