This caused Visa shares to drop by 5%. But this caught my attention.
US Attorney General Merrick Garland said Visa's illegal conduct discouraged potential rivals, particularly fintech companies like Square's CashApp, from entering the debit processing market.
Stackers know CashApp is moving the bitcoin protocol forward on different fronts but if the DOJ allows for more fair competition this could be a catalyst to allowing the lightning network to flourish thus making Block(SQ) an attractive equity leverage play on successful bitcoin adoption.
