### [🗞 As Visa and Mastercard raise fees, merchants may look to crypto](https://cointelegraph.com/news/as-visa-and-mastercard-raise-fees-merchants-may-look-to-crypto)

>Credit card providers charge merchants a cut of the payments they accept, called interchange fees or swipe fees. With two major card providers aiming to elevate rates, could crypto become an alternative? 

*“Visa Inc. and Mastercard Inc. are planning to raise swipe fees for some types of credit-card purchases in April,”* the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday, adding:

*“Though invisible to consumers, they [interchange fees] are glaring to merchants, which often end up paying fees of about 2% of their customers’ credit-card purchases. The fees are set by the card networks, such as Visa and Mastercard. Merchants pay them to the banks that issue the cards.”*

### [🗞 Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust Is Trading at a Discount. Should Investors Worry?](https://decrypt.co/59329/grayscale-bitcoin-trust-trading-discount-investors-worry)

>* Grayscale's Bitcoin Trust is trading at a discount for the first time in years.
>* Some analysts are concerned it's a bad thing for the market.
>* Others aren't so worried. Here's why.

>Shares in Grayscale’s $32 billion Bitcoin Trust are trading at a discount to the price of Bitcoin for the first time in over five years. 

>Some analysts are concerned that this could depress the price of Bitcoin. If this trend continues, the worry is that Grayscale might stop buying up Bitcoin. And as one of the biggest Bitcoin buyers, a lapse in demand could sink its price.

>Darius Sit, CIO of QCP Capital, said there’s nothing to worry about. “Most ETFs trade at discount to NAV,” he said. “It’s not a big deal.” 

>The catch is that Grayscale will issue these shares in GBTC in about six months. So, in six months, the lending desk could get that GBTC, which they expect to trade at a premium, and use the money to buy back the Bitcoin for a profit. 

>So when the premium drops, that’s just trading desks cashing out their premiums, he said.  “GBTC trading at a discount to the price of Bitcoin doesn’t necessarily indicate bearish outflows,” he said.

### [🗞 New York Is Done With Tether. Will Other States Follow?](https://decrypt.co/59363/new-york-is-done-with-tether-will-other-states-follow)

>* Tether and Bitfinex settled with the New York Attorney General's office.
>* Other states and jurisdictions may be watching how they handle disclosures mandated in the settlement.

>On Tuesday, iFinex, the parent company of cryptocurrency exchange Bitfinex and stablecoin issuer Tether, settled a two-year-old investigation brought by the New York State Attorney General.

>While the company is publicly celebrating that its stablecoin and exchange can move past this episode, legal experts say iFinex could remain under scrutiny from other state attorneys general and the Department of Justice.
