Looks like a bunch of bitcoin developers will soon be signing a non-compete with Mastercard?  Thank god the pseudonomymous nature of bitcoin ensures that these smart people aren't going to be put to pasture the moment Mastercard shelves the product.

Wasn't Mastercard so much anti Bitcoin?

Quote
MasterCard has spoken out against bitcoin's perceived risks and called for regulators to create a "level playing field" for payments systems.

And now they invest in Bitcoin?
Weird!Bizarre!Any hidden agenda?
