Mastercard develops new, partitioned blockchain

Mastercard has been actively investing in blockchain developments for financial services. This week, we see Mastercard is developing a partitioned blockchain for storing multiple transaction formats and types in a single blockchain with enhanced privacy and reduced computing resources and processing power. Interestingly, Mastercard also unveiled its new logo at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) on January 8th, 2019. The new logo is only two interlocking circles without the word “Mastercard” inserted or accompanying it–a modern look and an adaption to a digital environment.
