Will Facebook’s Coin Trigger Mass Adoption?
The publication of some details of Facebook’s Globalcoin, the White Paper is planned for today. (The project or the cryptocurrency is allegedly called Libra now.) This will not be a classic cryptocurrency, it will be a stablecoin pegged to USD, EUR, and JPY, and the real introduction is scheduled for 2020.
But the huge advantage of Facebook is that it has approximately 2.5 billion active users globally, and so it can educate many people on the world. Many users have no bank account but they have a smartphone and Facebook. Also, the consortium behind is crypto seems to be big, with names like PayPal, Visa, MasterCard, eBay or Uber participating.
