Payments duopoly with inflation-protected double-digit growth
Visa and Mastercard are an unregulated two-company payments oligopoly that collects a percentage of each card transaction, is protected against inflation, grows earnings 10-20% annually, has low debt and trades below or near historical valuation; the speaker's funds accumulated both in the low $300s.

Visa Mastercard rails gain stablecoin settlement volume.
More than 100,000 merchants already accept stablecoin payments without knowing it because the transactions are settling through existing Visa and Mastercard rails in the traditional way. As merchants begin to demand faster stablecoin settlement, upgrading the existing payment networks should keep Visa and Mastercard at the center of the stablecoin adoption flywheel.

Payment rails distribute AI inference.
Ejaaz argues AI plumbing will require payment rails to turn token spending into business intelligence. Visa and Mastercard are already integrated into companies' financial books and payment flows, potentially letting them distribute AI inference. He notes Stripe's acquisition of OpenRouter and frames this as an early, tinfoil-hat thesis but says the rails are positioned for it.
