#4 Visa to buy Square

Square, the mobile payment start-up founded by Twitter creator Jack Dorsey, focused on mobile payment technology.

Square uses a device called the Square Reader to accept debit and credit cards on smart phones. Visa is already an investor in Square, which has raised $300+ million in funding from venture capitalists and has been valued at approximately $5 billion. Square seems like a company that has been built to be acquired, and a company like Visa would be an ideal destination for the payment company. Indeed, Square could potentially help Visa and other card companies by bringing plastic transactions to the market.

#5 ebay to buy Etsy 

Etsy is an e-commerce website focused on handmade or vintage items, supplies, as well as unique factory manufactured items under Etsy's new guidelines, released in October 2013. The site had 30 million users and over 1 million active sellers, with total annual transactions around the 1$ billion mark. Etsy has always been about the human element in e-commerce. The beauty of Etsy is that in an increasingly mass-produced and machine-driven world, the site celebrates human creativity and connection.

eBay has had a lot of issues regarding counterfeit and false items for sale, with a lot of protests from genuine power sellers; Etsy would be a logical choice for eBay to acquire simply because their business models are so similar. Theoretically, an eBay owned Etsy could operate as the vintage and artisanal arm of the online auction business – either independently or through a simple merger with the Etsy user base. On a good note there are possibilities that Etsy will try to solve the problems, however it will not be easy given the size and growth of the company.
