IS this possible to make bitcoin mastercard.
Mastercard is very helpfull for giving payment.
We can carry it in anywhere.
Is this possible world wide it will show his power.

ITS JUST MY OPINION.

  One of the reasons Bitcoin came into existence was to wrest the control of money away from a central authority.  Why would you willingly give it back?!  This is counter-intuitive.

From my perspective this is not a good idea and this will create some problem in this market because this is not the actual purpose of this market and there will be difference between poor and rich which is not suitable for this market too.

"
This will make the coin a dominant one in the market and that is not the main purpose here. So this overall is a bad idea. The same thing will happen here, the widening of the rich poor gap."

Actually that will be not be a good thing. Bitcoin is here to weed out the dominance of the currency economic system of paper currency and to spread the concept of digital currency. So this type of MasterCard concept will be the repetition of the same situation.

There have actually been a few attempts to do something similar, I wouldn't call it a bitcoin mastercard or bitcoin VISA etc. But there are numerous bitcoin credit cards available which allow you to pay for things in store and online just like a debit or credit card, by using some automated exchange feature. However, these tend to be banned or shut down quite soon after launching so they are still quite risky to try out.

But you can find of these online by searching for bitcoin debit cards.

The purpose of BTC was to make the lives of the people easier. If a BTC master card gets emerged, then the rich will again get the power which is the complete opposte of the purpose of the coin.

No this is a bad idea to have a BTC Master Card. The reason why BTC is here so that the marekt is changed from the typical fiat system. By bringing this card in the marekt, the dominance will go back to the usual way.

I don't know if this is another spammy post or not. If you do a simple google search you are going to find out that visa/master card service providers are available out there for bitcoin and crypto users. Although many of them have cards on pause atm, but you can use them. Please inform yourself more about the matter than just posting some ideas that already exist. They are usefull for places that don't accept crypto. But I'd rather spend my bitcoin as bitcoin if I can and not to use cards and get fiat money as everybody else.

master card no doubt has been created for easier usage and convenience has it can be carried out to any desired location. it wont be out of proportion if its been created. as a matter of fact, i think its already in existence and people are really loving it. its great. bitcoin is nice.

Some altcoins are already have the mastercard for their coins but when it comes to bitcoin maybe this is still not possible this year. Maybe in the future but hopefully that is still a decentralized card that government has no control so we can still enjoy the real purpose of bitcoin and transact anywhere without experiencing any hassle.

Maybe he wants fast answers here. Too lazy to research huh! Our digital age is very different now. Many people want to have that kind of belongingness in crypto. So this one is always possible to be exploited in the near future.

Its a good idea, but i think it will compromise the aim of which bitcoin is born...

I think I saw something like that couple of days back, but I don't think  its official yet,  give it some little more time

I think the Bitcoin will ge there sooner or later. The idea is to make financial transactions as easy as possible and the option of a bItcoin mastercard is no exception. Maybe the name Mastercard wont be used, but I'm sure there will be someting similar to the functions that the Mastercard offer, with the Bitcoin soon enough. Lets hope this comes to pass. It will surely be a lifter to the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem as well as the rest of the world

This is a very interesting thing. With this card online and offline shopping activities will feel simple and comfortable. This is very likely to occur given the increase in merchant and consumer demand for cryptocurrency payment problems.

In my opinion nope easy short explanation why i'm not agree to your proposal about bitcoin master card
Your bitcoin online wallet are automatically as your mastercard they  can use it to all the time as payment transactions if the availability  in your local localtion accepting bitcoin as payment.

This is overall a b not a good idea. Because BTC is there in the market to eliminate the dominance of fiat and to make the digital currency within the reach towards the people of all kinds globally. Introduction of the master card will make the situation worse.

actually it is okay to do that, but what must be remembered is that not all countries have permission to use bitcoin, if we go to a country that strictly prohibits bitcoin, the mastercard cannot be used. Imagine if only one country permits bitcoin, is it very efficient to use it, for me it's also inefficient.

That’s true but I think it will not be easy for bitcoin to create that kind of card since there’s no private company owning its technology. Maybe if someone make a project like this, for sure it will be big and many investors will also come in. Let’s see this in the future, cryptocurrency will become more valuable for sure in the future.

I think this will be the contradiction to the objectives of the bitcoin. Bitcoin is here with a dream to root out the effect of traditional system to provide more safe and reliable system. But you will be able to enjoy this benefit with bitcoin also in future.

Bitcoin and all the cryptocurrencies using cards as a method of deposit and withdrawal is having the problem of setting a constant price within a period due to the high fluctuations of the crypto prices. Exchanges can be implementing a Card processing for bitcoins rather than mastercard themselves.

Why Mastercard? It's better to create a new payment system that would use bitcoin with all its advantages. And to make so that it is possible to make payment of all basic services through this system.

Yes you can, but not directly change from bitcoin into mastercard form, right now we can see that many developer of a project that make it real to makes your bitcoin and other cryptocurrenices is work using a card (visa or mastercard) maybe after they do some research and testing we can use it daily

Mastercard is not in line with bitcoin or other crypto currency. The foundation and fundamental base of Crypto is decentralized which is no central system menage or regulate it. It becomes worth because that reason. Now how could you be wishing to establish or have a mastercard of Crypto currency?
It will remove the main goal or value of Crypto currency.  

Actually there is already a bitcoin debit card, one of which is Loadoo. To get an ATM from Loadoo is also quite simple and easy because it only needs to load Loadoo without requiring ID verification so anyone can have this Bitcoin ATM. In addition to guaranteed security, in Loadoo there are several options for deposit and withdrawal payment methods that make it easier for users of course.

the idea is good, the problem is that mastercard is already an intermediary and cryptocurrencies seek to avoid them.

In the end, in your scheme you will be charged a fee. You also cannot avoid the Bitcoin conversion rate. However, you can increase the security of storing your Bitcoin funds and reduce unnecessary costs.

You are to open an online wallet with a Bitcoin card provider service and save your Bitcoin that has been obtained there. You don't need to worry about security because all your Bitcoin can be stored in a safer wallet. Another advantage of the second scheme is that there is no transaction between your Bitcoin wallet and a Bitcoin wallet that is connected to a Bitcoin card and, therefore there are no additional fees in this step.

I think it can't be applied at this time, for the transaction it's very complicated because mastercard must first convert the existing bitcoin / will be used in local currency. While the ownership of bitcoin is not on behalf of people but based on complicated codes so that it cannot be applied at this time, but for the future it is very possible.

I think bitcoin MasterCard will logical inconsistency the targets of the bitcoin. Bitcoin is here with a fantasy to find the impact of conventional framework to give more protected and dependable framework. However, you will have the capacity to appreciate this advantage with bitcoin additionally in future.

I agree, a payment system like you mentioned would be much better, and useful, now and in the log run

In that case, a central regulatory authority would be needed and this is in a total contradiction with the idea with which the BTC was created, decentralized digital currency without a central bank or single administrator.

From my own particular view this is certainly not a smart thought and this will make some issue in this market since this isn't the real motivation behind bitcoin and there will be contrast between poor people and the rich which isn't appropriate for bitcoin advertise

I think this is not really good because it will not allow bitcoin to change the fiat system and will slow the market.

It seems difficult to use btc mastercard because some people will not be able to accept, it is difficult to exchange in the bank. If the card is lost then it is difficult to take care of it. Better bitcoins are exchanged through existing exchanges.

No it is not impossible to issue a Bitcoin mastercard but if that happens, then you are just willingly giving away the control of your expenditure and record of your expenses to another third party like banks. People trust Bitcoin because of it's decentralized nature and by issueing a card, I don't think a scene will be helped.

I don't thing Mastercard or VISA should take part in this. There are projects that already want to secure this area like TenX. Let the decentrlaised apps take care of decentralised money.

Why would you need master card when you can just transfer the coin using you mobile wallet. I don't think there is much difference. Rather people would definitely love to use their mobile phone which they usually don't forget to keep with themselves whereas we often forget to carry our credit/debit/mastercards.

Having a bitcoin and cryptocurrency app is much better for me. Since we have a modern technology now, tap can be used and is more convinient with swipping. We can also transact via qr code thru our mobile phones which we always have. A card is good, but an app is better. Both can be stole anyway.

Bitcoin itself is like mastercard. You carry your wallet with you, which is your phone or laptop and you buy whatever you want using your coins which you are giving away from your wallet. So, I honestly don't see the reason behind making another card for that reason.

If this ever happens, then Bitcoin should not be the only one crypto being adopted by this. People should have a variety of choices, what to spend on their expenses.

It's one of the main reasons we want to use bitcoin, to get rid of these centralized scammers.

I think it would be superfluous for us but fuck master card it will be profitable at the expense of the Commission ! We do not need it because we can withdraw money to a payment system that works with master cards.

It is easy to say it but very difficult to understand the process. If a mastercard is allowed for you to spend your Bitcoin, then a central authority will issue the card who will also have the authority to track your usage and all the details about your coins. This will not only invade your privacy but also make the decentralized feature of BTC useless.

People are already concerned about their Bitcoins even if they are kept secure in their hardware or cold wallet and if a mastercard like card is issued for Bitcoin it will just only increase the risk of losing your Bitcoin easily if somehow you managed to lose your card. I don't think this could be a good idea.

One reason Bitcoin appeared was to wrest the control of cash far from a focal specialist. For what reason would you energetically give it back?! This is nonsensical. I know it's tough to get your payment done smoothly with cryptocurruency but you have to understand that it makes them be differentiated from the fiat.

While using bitcoin or any other crypto currency you want to have decentralized currency market where no one is regulating you for your transactions or expenses. If you merge bitcoin with master card then government will have the authority to look over your coins.

Whatever you are thinking right now is coming from the inner expectation you strive for, but I believe it will take time to get in that position. Because bitcoin is gradually getting acceptance from so many countries. One day it will surely gain the smoothness of transaction anywhere in this world. We all need to stay hopeful for that.

It will not be reliable for the users. They want their bitcoins to be private and no one can look over them by any means. If bitcoin associate with master card then it will lose its decentralize form and government will regulate the coins.

Whatever you are thinking right currently is originating from the inward desire you make progress toward, however, I trust it will require investment to get in that position. Since bitcoin is steadily getting acknowledgment from such a large number of nations. One day it will most likely gain the smoothness of exchange anyplace in this world. We as a whole need to remain cheerful for that.

I don’t think it is relevant to the purpose of the bitcoin or crypto currency. The purpose of using crypto currency is to reduce the government influence from the currency usage. If bitcoin gets associated with master card then government will have the chance to regulate your crypto coins.

Well if mastercard will just be a bridge for us Bitcoin users to be able to make purchases with BTC using standard terminals in stores, it won't give them power over BTC, they will earn some provision from it and that's all.

I think better to call this card as Bitcoin Debit Card where it is loaded with bitcoins and can be use in payment or withdraw fiat money from your bitcoin in an ATM. There are some bitcoin debit cards already out in the cryptocurrency industry. Although there are difficulties in the process since bitcoin usage is not yet mainstream. Limitation in its transactions. Another difficulty is that third parties issuing the debit cards. These process put your bitcoins vulnerable to theft. Total security haven't set yet.

Bitcoin master card is not good because bitcoin is decentralized currency and peoples love this because no one can track their bitcoin transaction now some financial services providing bitcoin master and visa card  but this is not official authority so no one can say how long time this services run. if authorized banks are providing these type of cards and peoples spend their bitcoins than their transaction will be traceable, now no one can trace any small and bulk bitcoin transaction on blockchain network and peoples love it.

I think it's possible, but it doesn't make sense now. The prices in the stores are expressed in dollars and then this card will just convert bitcoins to dollars. This makes no sense until there are no shops with prices in bitcoin.

Today nothing is impossible,  I USE to say that we are living in the future , every single day comes a new and amazing technology that surprise the world and make our life better

How come it doesn't make sense?
There are not a lot of merchants who accept Bitcoin so Bitcoin debit cards make spending Bitcoin much more easier. Yes, Bitcoin is converted to fiat currency you desire but that it's inevitable and I don't see problem in that.
People, like you have never heard of Bitcoin debit cards? There already exist Bitcoin Master cards, like Mistertango, but they are only debit not credit.

From a utility standpoint, bitcoin is one of the most usable currency. It is a new form of economy linked with the modern technology and its net work systems are very strong..Bitcoin can be used as an investment tool, for the day trading,for the local and international shopping,and for utility bill payment etc...

Well it can be done, but you should not do it, as this will defy bitcoins main purpose of existence i.e. freedom from centralised organisations. If you were to make a Visa card, you would basically hand over the control of bitcoins over a centralised organisation what good would that do to you, well it's true you can carry your card anywhere, but same is true in the case of bitcoins.

Also there were some people who have tried it, but they have spectacularly failed, and those who brought it were scammed too, think twice before you ever buy or consider this.

I guess a company named Graft did something very similar to this MasterCard/visa thing for paying money and similar stuff. Graft also had a signature campaign running here. But I would really prefer such ICOs than Mastercard and all because it is again like giving authority to banks or any central authority.

https://www.graft.network/ (https://www.graft.network/)

Several companies have offered bitcoin debit cards over the last few years, but one by one the banks that were issuing them cancelled them.  The banks that issue them get pressured by the governing authorities of wherever they’re domiciled to enforce all KYC & AML procedures on the cardholders.   I guess having a bitcoin credit or debit card as a cool novelty item is ok, but it doesn’t solve any new problems if it’s the same as having a centrally controlled bank account. 

a few days ago, I found a video from LinkedIn about using several types of credit cards and making it in one card form. so that the barcode can be replaced depending on our needs at the time, the appearance of its use is more or less like hardware wallet but its shape is like a credit card in general, so I think the use of Bitcoin Mastercard might be achieved

of course, Mastercard is very supportive of the development and innovation of bitcoin, I think we will find mastercard bitcoin in the future, mastercard bitcoin will compete with debit cards, and other fiat transaction cards.

bitcoin mastercard will also be very helpful for our transactions.

Now that it has a card, it suddenly worries you? Then I can picture you not ever having an ATM card or a credit card as that will be hackable according to your logic. ::) There probably is going to be a 2FA and/or a pin code when using a bitcoin debit card. We're all about safety and security here.
Yeah, but an app comes with a phone which already costs you a lot of money even when they weren't able to get your coins. Not everyone puts password in their phone. Not everyone puts password in their bitcoin apps. With a card, it will probably have a pin code since it doesn't make sense to not have it.
Probably so that we will be able to swipe our cards to scanners and be able to pay with our bitcoins with whatever we are buying. The total will be converted into how much is it in bitcoins and that will be the amount that will be deducted to your card.
Exactly, but whenever you're using an exchange, that creates centralization right away. Even online wallet creates centralization. There are small circles of centralization happening and people don't really realize that it's happening. They think that bitcoin is decentralized but it's only the ones that aren't in any institutions or third-party wallet/companies.

Bitcoin is still not popular is every country. Most of the country dont accept its validity. Its forbiddent in many country. If bitcoin launch a mastercard that have the place to use. I think decentralized systems don't have mastercard. After all if they want to launch, it will take a long periods of time.

Great thinking. It's not possible I think so. Because it's fluctuated and decentralized currency and that's why there will no team to maintain the card.

How  it can be done? But if it happen then it will able to fullfil many BTC holders desire who wants to pay by BTC in many places.

Bitcoin is not a stable currency and it's too much fluctuated. It's not easy term to build up  BTC mastercard. But if it can be done then many will be interested about BTC then.

The idea is very good and it will be realized. But there is one problem. It is called the transaction speed

BTC is decentralized currency and that's why there nobo9dy as third party for doing this job. But it will be helpful if it can be done.,

If bitcoin really able to do this that's should be very helpful for those who wants to use BTC as their daily payment. Bitcoin will be concern about that if it's possible.

Bitcoin doesn't have a mastercard for the coin but some altcoins already have mastercard for their coins. Maybe in the future but hopefully it is still a decentralized card that the government has no control so we can still enjoy the real purpose of bitcoin and transact anywhere without experiencing any difficulties.

With the financial boom of electronic money and the tireless effort of development teams, virtual currency communities are striving to introduce, communicate to everyone the applications, benefits , the superiority of this new financial institution. It is no surprise that virtual currency credit cards are one such application.

Like seriously,  I saw something like this few days ago,  and I must confused, it really a perfect move for the blockchain technology

If we go to that MasterCard, then the money will be accumulated again in one place. We don't want to do that again because we are working to launch a decentralized trading system outside this centralized situation.

Yes, you may right, but in that case we have to take our full money into a specific hand, from which we have been using decentralized method to get out. But it does not seem right to me.

This would be a good idea, because these days there is not enough in the crypto world more simple application, although it is much easier? But all of course society is not enough, so we have to go to new methods.

Yes bitcoin mastercard is very useful. Advcash is pretty good one. It does not require maintenance free for month. The card type of Advcash is anonymous, plastic and virtual. It only support EU based countries.

There are some good bitcoin master cards. Personally I did not face any issues yet with bitcoin master card. I find it quite useful till now. To me Bitnation is one of the bests.

You may give a try to SpectroCoin which is a bitcoin master card that is included of all countries across the world. The type of this card is both plastic and virtual.

Many projects related to Debit card have been created. They have not been able to go far, but there are many people working on it.

Yeah I'm also wondering which one will make progress and adapt it to real life! It against the Bitcoin's philosophy but it might be interesting. Let's wait and see. :)

Although bitcoin is a useful and profit earning thing for some investors it is also used as for buying and selling things in some parts of the world but what i think is that it may not be use a regularly for buying and selling things all over the globe as compared with the hard paper currency.

I think that mastercard is very comfortable in our time, so that, so it's convenient

I think that it is bad using bitcoin as a payment in a master crad...why?

1. The reason of have a master card/ credit card is because of having a badrowed money/bitcoin, you use bitcoin and later you will pay the barrowed money for bitcoin.

Ps: its good you use the mastercard and it will automatically dedicated to you saving from bitcoin

2. For me having bitcoin use as a payment in credit card is a hasel you should have just used an see change wallet from bitcoin or altcoin to any foriegn money that is much better.

Because if you think about it you use bitcoin and later it goes byebye because bitcoin is an investment that goes up and down. If you use bitcoin and when the value goes up there will be lower chances that your bitcoin or altcoin prices will decrease.

I think it is a strange view to associate BTC and mastercard as BTC is theorically oposite of mastercard.

BTC is not centralized in one company and is accessible for everybody. This is a purpose of it so it is for me killing the vision an duse of BTC to use it like standard payment card.

It could be convenient but will lose almost all the interest of using BTC only as a crypto.

I think this will definitely happen in future where the card will be used to buy goods on all online stores and this will really help the value of bitcoin

It is just a myth. I think it will never come. But if it will come this market will be more and more strong.Traders will increase to invest.

If it really happened, that would be a good news. Traders and investor be more serious about BTC.Generall people can do anythings with that mastercard. As it is a decentralized system, so i think it wouldn't be happen.In present time only few big company accepting BTC. SO i think mastercard may come but it will take a long time.

if there is a bitcoin mastercard good news that because we can use convenience stores it's easy to have that mastercard for bitcoin

omg! is it really going to happen. Using mastercard very payments can pay. But i am think other problems, still every traders and shop not accepting bitcoin. So i think bitcoin mastercard still unusable.

You may be correct but I think that if this is done then the money will again be centralized, which does not go with the characteristics of cryptoconference. Because we want a decentralized method that should really be the subject of concern.

what! is it really possible. I don't think so. If it really come, it will be very beneficial for newcommers as well as all investor. They will be able to use it as current mastercards. But worldwide acceptance is also a matter of concern.

You're right. The main principle of bitcoin is the decentralization, it is away from an authority. If bitcoin creates mastercard means it breaks the principle. The use of blockchain technology in bitcoin is to offers high transparency and simplicity in the transactions. I think bitcoin should be developed and improved based on the principle.

The essence of bitcoin is that it can not be subordinated to banks. Banks themselves will not agree to cooperate with bitcoin.

Yeah this will increase the ease of payment. But the worst part is that it will give the control over any organization of your money and which is the main issue that was resolved by introducing crypto

This will surely help people in case of payments. But we will lose freedom and will be liable to any centralized system. And this is the main reason that it is not possible to implement card in real

i don't think it will happen in bitcoin. mastercard also have many disadvantages. and i don't feel any bother for payment.

Yes it can be an another system. Bitcoin already have wallet facility it also can be offer because it can easily takeable also it is easy to use.

it should have become part and plan of the existence of bitcoin. mastercard BTC? I think it's a very interesting idea, it's not impossible if later bitcoin has replaced the future currency. brilliant concept. 8)

I think this is one of the cause of  Bitcoin came into being was to gain the control of money from a central specialist. It would not eager to back it an security intuitive.

I think bitcoin wallet already give this facility because it already have such system that people can easily transfer money. The most important thing is people can control over the process.

Bitcoin now digital currency. But Bitcoin MasterCard is not good and no one support it because no one control Bitcoin. I don't think it'll be happen

I think that in the nearest future this will be possible. I also consider Mastercard very useful and convenient.The same is about btc. if to combine them, the effect will be great. it is worth thinking about this

I am sorry to say that I am not sure if bitcoin mastercard is available or not I haven't hear aboutit but yes if it actually arrives it will be very helpful for the users they will able to easily do their all the payments

Well mastercard has a new patent that could allow bitcoin transactions on credit cards. Mastercard introduces a patent to manage "fractional reserves of blockchain currency." ... Bitcoin bull Tom Lee says this is good news as it validates cryptocurrency as a form of transaction.

Bringing phone with app installed is much more easy than having card. And if it happens it will be similar to fiat, so what is the use of crypto being digital if we transfor it? We need to think about what is really the main goal of cryptocurrency for everyone to fulfill it with satisfaction.

that is interesting but I don't know any update about this but will really hope that the bitcoin authority will think about this cause it will be very helpful for the users and it will bring a new development at the market as well

that is a very wonderful plan, but I don't think that the authority have still thinks about such things about yes the place is updating every day do in the future maybe they will bring such developed systems for the investors

The reason behind initiating bitcoin is to reduce the use money controlled by a centralized authority. If they introduce mastercard, I think, the concept of decentralized network would be violated.

Some clarifications are needed here actually.  When you say bitcoin mastercard, did you mean to say that bitcoin be under mastercard? or are you simply implying bitcoin be use in the same effect of a mastercard where it will be widely accepted for payments?

If you mean the latter, then i'm in for it as that is the end goal of bitcoin, to be widely accepted by most establishments around the world where payment transactions is seamless and easy. I think yes, this is a good boost.

But if you mean the previous, where bitcoin be under the central authority of banking entities such as mastercard, then it sounds like a bad idea really. Bitcoin gave us freedom and here we are wanting to wrap ourselves again by the financial checks and surveillance that bitcoin rid for us.

It would be great to hear more precisely what you wanted.

well, in the direct sense of the master card is impossible, but there are alternative means of paying a card and replenish it with your coins, the payment system is very convenient and suitable for describing your goals

If anyone is seeking bitcoin payment options, ColtPay provides the plug in for e-commerce for merchants to accept bitcoin payments www.colt.solutions

We are CBD, Cannabis, Firearms and other high-risk merchant friendly :)

I don't think that Bitcoin mastercard is really necessary as it itself a gateway for payment for several transactions. You can refer bitcoin as alternative to mastercard as well.

Bitcoin mastercard will be contradictory to the concept of making BTC, I think. So, I am sorry to say that I am not agreed with your opinion.

We are going to take away decentralization and anonymity if we allow Mastercard to control Bitcoin, maybe in the future, we could have this feature when there are people who can make an innovation on how to make Bitcoin part of mastercard but for now, it's no let's enjoy the beauty of decentralization and anonymity.

Agree with you mate no one controlled bitcoin that is why many people wants it, but i dont think so if bitcoin will having master card why you will continue using bitcoin if you can used your own currency to purchase anywhere. Bitcoin is virtual there is no physical thing exist to estimate the value of thia currency.

I really can't give you a fitting assessment of why you can't have a bitcoin card but is lt seems as a far stretch as who will monitor these cards

Maybe in theory this is quite possible. But what will BTC get from this? The idea is to have decentralized currency, and that will change things radically. I also think this is not a good idea.

You can carry your bitcoin to anywhere and to pay for any transaction. If they think of mastercard, they also need to establish machine for using mastercard. As they are trying to avoid this traditional payment system, why they shall consider to discover BTC mastercard?

I think it's a good idea because it's better for Bitcoin to issue a master card because it can make it easier for someone to buy something he wants. if bitcoin issues a master card then someone will be easier and faster in making transactions, therefore I am sure bitcoin will be easily accepted as a global currency.

There are bitcoin debit card around previously but most of them stopped or postponed their services. Tenx and MCO are two projects that are looking to issue their cards.

it would be very convenient so I support this idea but it seems to me that this is practically unrealistic and impossible because of its decentralization bitcoin

I don't know whether it's good or not. But I think, if it turns bitcoin into a centralized one, maybe it's not good for bitcoin

Therefore, this is still a lot of consideration and trial. Many issues are related that this card will be realized. There have been many issues that crypto or bitcoin will make a card but I have never heard or seen it in person. Indeed, this needs a lot of consideration. So far MCO and MNX have card-related projects, but I don't know for sure if the card from the platform can be used....

maybe someday if it's useful and needed for the good and many benefits aspects, maybe mastercard is very necessary and this company will make it for the progress of bitcoin itself.

Well if alts are able to pull through this kind of project then btc of course can as well though it'll of course need a lot of work considering bitcoin's large following. Though it'll push convenience in using it a lot forward.

In fact, banks now see a threat from cryptocurrencies.Therefore, there are 2 ways for banks-to prohibit cryptocurrency in use or to connect with new opportunities and new technologies for further activities.This was the way the project is now conducting its ICO-   https://wbb.io/.    They will issue their own debit cards.I don't see anything wrong with that.

Mastercard is a VISA brand I believe, so it's very unlikely you're going to get a partnership between Bitcoin and VISA in order to produce some sort of amalgamation card. I think you might be able to get a viable Bitcoin debit card, but t would probably need a proprietary payment terminal in order to correctly register the transaction. This is something that could definitely be facilitated by the lightning netwrk howeve, where payments could be handled offchain through specialized payment channels and a BTC credit card.

I think,the author has meant of having a card using which we can buy things or do other transactions. In my point of view I believe in some scenarios this is already there as a service. However to be able to buy things, the sellers should also adapt to crypto currencies. However, I believe in future as the fiat currency evolve into digital currency what you expect will be reallized.

I think it shouldn't even be a problem in the future. bad idea

I don't really understand,if this is another spammy post or not. If you do a simple google search you are going to find out that visa/master card service providers are available out there for bitcoin and crypto users. Although many of them have cards on pause ATM.

I hope so. Indeed, everything needs a process not as easy as we talk. We can hope and try, time and perseverance that will produce results. It's very clear that Bitcoin will have a card. And this will happen, we can't avoid it. Logically, banknotes and metals come out as payment instruments, after several years there have been innovations in credit cards, ATMs and other payment cards. Obviously, this can happen also in Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.

in this modern age,is it possible to have a bitcoin that works as a master card or visa card.Same as these cards,bitcoin mastercards is reliable and has security features which enable a card holder to have an access 24/7.Bitcoin mastercards may also worked as debit card and credit cards which is a hassle free transactions.

Possessing a Bitcoin MasterCard or Bitcoin Visa Card is a matter of personal choice. I think the idea behind it is to increase usability / popularity of Bitcoin and make it more impactful and real. Doing business with those that don’t have Bitcoin wallets will still need to be done using  fiat currencies.  Some countries that Bitcoin is not accepted will also require the use of fiat currencies. In these circumstances, Bitcoin ATM will need to be used. Places that adopted the use of Bitcoin ATMs include: Slovenia, Finland, Ireland, Netherlands, among others. 

So far MCO and MNX have card-related projects, but I'm not sure whether the card from the platform can be used .... This is how the project is doing ICO- https: / /wbb.io/. I do not see anything wrong with that.

it seems to me that this is possible. if this were done it was very convenient and gave a new impetus to the development of bitcoin

If Mastercard will work with bitcoin, it will be a big push for the cryptocurrency market. I am sure that the market will grow very much after that. This event will be a big plus, and will start the development of new events.

Hm. I think it is possible because bitcoin is a currency also. Maybe, it will make soon but for me, I will not use any card anymore if I can pay my bills, cashout and cash in using my android phone. However, it will become a good news when mastercard will honor bitcoin and integrate it to their system.

Its a relevant idea for currency exchange and will be very good for blockchain technology. However, some other altcoin have adopted it but what is the success rate of the project. I dont think it should be difficult to do, other alternatives had not made it mandatory

If this happens, it will be a big breakthrough. Although many companies now pay attention to crypto more seriously, it seems to me that some more time must pass

There are many Bitcoin debit card companies in the U.K.
Check out a company called Wirex.  8)
I think it will take some time to see this becoming popular around the world.

Seems good! Any company take this idea? ;D (I love visa more, haha just kidding)

it seems you do not understand how both debit card and credit card works. firstly mastercard is a company name known for providing both debit card and debit card services. for any company to have right to distribute this mastercard, they need to comply with mastercard term and services. One major drawback associated with project startup intending to get license from mastercard to help produce cryptocard is that almost all of them do not meet mastercard terms and conditions for the service.

Because it doesn't make any sense.
Bitcoin was created to fight banks and other financial institutions control over our money.
If we use Mastercard to make bitcoin transactions so why we have to use bitcoin in the first place!
There are Bitcoin ATMs but it seems that people don't want to use them.

In my opinion, it is very possible, but nowadays we already have gadget which is our smartphone where we can do many things, including pay something using btc. Just scan the barcode, set the number of the payment, then you do the transaction. So, I think Our smartphone is more helpfull for giving payment than using mastercard.

 You could have easily looked this information up before posting blatant misinformation.  MasterCard is a separate company in direct competition with Visa.

I am believe it will happen master card with bitcoin. Bitcoin is cryptocurrency and right now, many coin developing debit card with their own cryptocurrency. If master card use bitcoin, i am believe bitcoin price will rising because people can use it in any merchant

 Did you just take the misinformation from Parodium's post and create a shitpost from it?!


 It looks that way.

Its good to know that master card already using bitcoin for their debit card. I am believe it will popular in the world and used by crypto community. Hopely it will come to my country

Mastercard as a virtual money leader sees opportunities for bitcoin to be used throughout the world for the long term, it can be ascertained to provide mastercard bitcoin someday. The world has been put together by the internet in terms of communication technology, so that in terms of financial bitcoin can become global money, which eliminates the role of third parties when transactions.

Actualy this is a good perception or ideas coming up for your on thought thats theres a possible to create a bitcoin master card  soon,but i thinks its would probably implemented first for those country having regulated and legalized cryptocurrency like the country of japan or some eurpean countries,but some other countries thats not allowed bitcoin to become regulated,i thinks its impossible to become implemented of using master cards as a bitcoin because one would make stop this are the world goverment and the banks because they thinks its a competion to the banks investment  and the legality of its own purpose.

In my own perception, although its hard to believe but it is possible for bitcoin to be with mastercard. Since there are now atm machines for bitcoin in some other countries. However i think there could be more complications but i think with the development of cryptocurrency this can be done possibly.

everything in the future no one can know but all possibilities can happen the most important thing is all countries recognize bitcoin as an official currency that can be used

Just few minutes ago I went to do school runs for my uncle who is in US, after which, I stopped at a gas station to get fuel, and I was asked to pay using my ATM card, which I did and it was fruitful. Immediately my mind keyed into the fact that sooner than we thought it could be, cashless transactions will become predominant in developed countries. You might go for 2 months straight without touching liquid money. So if someone is already thinking of a mastercard for Bitcoin, then it's research and development is ongoing somewhere. And sooner than we expect it, the world will become more digitized and convenient and cashless transactions will take over the order of the day.

It would be nice to make such a card for the future.  Very cool, do not bother with exchangers and get money as quickly as possible.

Great idea. I will be waiting for it to be created soon.

You just use BTC to buy things, like mastercard so why would you need a card?

because you cant buy all of the things with bitcoin not all merchant accept them because of volatility that's why OP want a bitcoin mastercard, OP can check out minexpay if you want crypto creditcard not bitcoin specifically.

Successful currencies meet three criteria:

(1) they are in widespread use as medium of exchange
(2) they serve as unit of account
(3) they are a stable store of value.

Most sovereign currencies fully meet all three criteria.

What about Bitcoin?

Why not, if the bank could do that it would be easier for us to transact using bitcoin mastercard. It is just like an ordinary bank mastercard that will use in the form of payment. It would be much happy if the bank support bitcoin members.

Mastercard and VISA are existing large companies that have their own product that is sold and developed around the world. In my opinion, they will not merge with bitcoin, since bitcoin will lose certain funds and there will be increased fees. It is worth saying that bitcoin is easier to issue your debit card.

This will make the coin a dominant one in the market and that is not the main purpose here. Bitcoin is here to weed out the dominance of the currency economic system of paper currency and to spread the concept of digital currency. By bringing this card in the marekt, the dominance will go back to the usual way.

I think the best bitcoin debit card implementation is Wirex card. Check out this company from London.
