hello everybody,The market valuation of all of the cryptocurrencies combined has surpassed the market cap of leading financial service provider Visa, by $30 billion :)~.

Crypto-Currency will surpass all the most expensive valuable gems in the world, and it's just the beginning because 2018 will be the year of Altcoins and the market world will be flooded by ICOs and new coin projects.

this is only the beginning for crypto world and for what i hope this system will be in the future crypto currencies will surpass a lot of other technologies because the many advantages that crypto has  anonymity, security ...

I really do not know how visa works.I for myself do not have an atm.It depends on how crypto currencies or visa could make your life a lot more easiear.But for me they are both valuable.

Not sure I understand the logic of your comparison. Why not compare the amount of spend through the Visa Network to the spend on crypto currency surely that is a more tangible comparison?

Theres no comparison my friend visa is centralized while crypto is created to remove these limits,decentralization and anonymity for good.

I think it's just a start, the market for crypto money has 10 times the potential, so seize the opportunity, it's going to be a profitable opportunity.

If your statement is true then the future of Cryptocurrency is around the corner, we should not be surprised if Digital Currencies replace all fiat currencies in the future.

Would be interesting to compare this valuation with transactions/second.

with the amount of potential that cryptocurrencies have, then i wouldnt be surprised at all to see ALL fiat currencies become obsolete in the future!

One is used as intended an the other is not.

A poor comparison when all of crypto is a bubble inflated with idiot noobs playing online pyramid scheme for profits.

Go ahead and compare.
Make a list of what merchants accepted Visa for payment for good or services then compare to Shitco.
I can safely say Visa would dominate that metric 99.99%.

Tell me are you all THAT stupid or are you aware you are nothing but ponzi / pyramid participants ?

A world with no fiat paper! Now that's a sight for sore eyes!

The end of banking power is coming soon. Looks like Satoshi's dream may come true! I do think that banks will have a role, it will be a lot more minor role than they have since the rise of digital payments though.

If everything works with Blockchain technology and currencies go digital, then their wont be the need of the "middle man" and loss of money.

Theres articles on the internet that suggest cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum could become global currencies, that would be something extraordinary. The whole world using One currency!

You know, but it’s really interesting to watch how cryptocurrency is becoming more available for each of us. https://mytc.io/ Ive just checked their website and wanna try it. A blockchain platform to turn time into the cryptocurrency.

You cant compare the two,visa is centralized digital assets and the other is decentralized digital assets,morelikely the crypto will be the future money for all the human beings.

i liked the fact that you used the word market "valuation" not market "capitalization" where you are actually reporting the Market Capitalization. and the funny thing is, the "valuation" of these altcoins combined is not even 1 millionth of Visa because with Visa you can buy stuff since it is a real payment system but with altcoins you can not to anything but to trade them, get the profit and enjoy the pumps.
you can not really compare things that are too different.

We gotta agree that crypto is huge because it is accessible by anyone from anywhere

If we actually look at Debit/Credit cards, it has criteria like personal infos, records and etc.

Crypto has none of this, hence, decentralization is the key :P

cryptocurrency > visa,because crypto gave us the opportunity to buy/sell without any tax and spent it with anonymity.

It's not about the decentralized or centralized but the main thing about the total valuation in the crypto already surpassed the visa service. But I see the only ethereum platform will try to compete with the visa on its scalability. Crypto will worth more than it.
