Zerohash seeks new funding at higher valuation after Mastercard investment collapses

Mastercard has withdrawn plans to invest in cryptocurrency infrastructure company Zerohash. A recent CoinDesk report said Mastercard’s $1.8 billion acquisition of UK stablecoin infrastructure company BVNK appeared to have influenced the decision. Mastercard had been considering a strategic investment even after Zerohash signaled it would go its own way in January. Zerohash is now pushing a new funding round at a higher valuation than before.
