Facebook announced plans for a crypto currency called Diem in January 2019. Diem Association manages the digital currency. It is backed by the US dollar. This project has been plagued for regulatory snafus. Facebook has been slow to implement its plans. A statement from Marcus says that the company wants to reshape the financial services industry. It's unclear if the project will be successful or fail. However, it seems like the company will use cryptocurrency for its services.
Calibra, the subsidiary company Facebook is creating to handle its crypto trading and protect users' privacy, is Calibra. Facebook won't link payments made to Libra users with personal data as long as Libra remains decentralized. No personal information of users will be linked publicly to transactions. Calibra as well as Facebook will earn interest on every Libra transaction. The money in reserve can be used for platform enhancements and security.
Facebook's redesigned efforts are focused on creating a cryptocurrency platform that uses the blockchain technology behind cryptocurrencies. Stablecoins make digital tokens that are tied to major currencies such as the dollar and the euro using the underlying blockchain technology. While some people say that these currencies are unstable, Facebook believes that their underlying technology is more secure than the erratic behavior of bitcoin. The social network has been criticised for not providing the promised security but its user experience is the key.
Libra is the new cryptocurrency being worked on by the Facebook team. Its aims are to make this currency accessible to everyone. Foreign direct investments will fund the new crypto. The goal is to build a global platform for the digital currency exchange. While they wouldn't be able to control the crypto currency, local regulators could monitor software and pocket companies. They would be required to make sure Calibra doesn’t get an unfair advantage in the marketplace.
The Facebook project was launched a while back and aims to provide a simple and stable way for users of WhatsApp to transfer money. The project is also an important step towards creating digital currencies that are backed by the US dollars. This is more than a cryptocurrency. It's the first to use it. It's not yet fully operational, but it could prove to be a gamechanger in the near future.
The Libra project by Facebook has enabled a digital currency and the Facebook team is ready for the blockchain revolution. Developers will be charged $10 million to run a node. The company also plans to create physical ATMs and kiosks to serve its users. The currency will be stablecoin. It won't be volatile, and it is tied to a safer asset like gold.
