Here’s a good start: https://techcrunch.com/2015/10/27/barry-silbert-launches-digital-currency-group-with-funding-from-mastercard-others/amp/

Also look into MasterCard’s patent portfolio and how many things are owned by MC subsidiaries.

Thank you kindly!

What do you think this means?

“Silbert explained ‘being structured as a company, versus a fund, allows us to evolve with the industry given our permanent capital base and flexible mandate’.”

A fund has to follow a bunch of laws. A company be more involved and controlling.
