Mastercard wants to make it easier for banks to provide bitcoin trading to its customers. The payments company aims to introduce a scheme that will assist financial institutions with offering the asset. It will serve as a "bridge" between Paxos, a cryptocurrency trading platform utilized by PayPal, and banks. 60% of respondents stated they'd rather test the waters with their current banks.
Cryptocurrency trading is "not suited for the general public", according to Singapore's central bank.
Cryptocurrency investors in Singapore may have to go through a risk awareness assessment before being allowed to trade. They will also not be able to use credit cards or any form of borrowing to trade cryptocurrencies. These are among the measures proposed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) to protect retail consumers. A risk awareness assessment is also being proposed to ensure that retail customers have sufficient knowledge of the risks involved. DPT service providers will not be allowed to offer any monetary or non-monetary incentives to retail customers upon sign-up, or to any person to encourage referrals of its service.
