Facebook's new Cryptocurrency "GlobalCoin", by irl1 on May 24, 2019 17:38:56 GMT 1, Facebook plans to launch 'GlobalCoin' cryptocurrency in 2020
Facebook is planning to launch its own cryptocurrency in early 2020, allowing users to make digital payments in a dozen countries.
The currency, dubbed GlobalCoin, would enable Facebookโs 2.4 billion monthly users to change dollars and other international currencies into its digital coins. The coins could then be used to buy things on the internet and in shops and other outlets, or to transfer money without needing a bank account.
Mark Zuckerberg, the founder and chief executive of Facebook, last month met the governor of the Bank of England, Mark Carney, to discuss the plans, according to the BBC.
Zuckerberg has also discussed the proposal, known as Project Libra, with US Treasury officials and is in talks with money transfer firms, including Western Union, to develop cheap, safe ways for people to send and receive money. A report last year said Facebook is working on a cryptocurrency that would let users transfer money using WhatsApp, its encrypted mobile-messaging app.

I will probably jump into this a bit as it is way over hyped especially since there are big backers but as many have mentioned above the droid (Suckerberg) will do something to lose the trust and hopefully FB will finally fail. But Instagram can live.

Billionaire Zuck is asking investors to pay for this crypto scheme. He is asking for one billion dollars.
Is facebook just pumping up it's value or losing money?

As for Bitcoin, its popularity has been growing every day, especially after the increase of its price. I even read that Libra can replace Bitcoin. Does anyone believe in this?
