  • When Facebook first announced it was getting into the crypto business-with a basically unregulated currency called Libra-the reaction from Wall Street and government bankers was about as expected. Fast-foward a few months, and Libra is in trouble. The social media giant had lined up a long list of corporate backers for the initiative, including major players in the payments space. And in October 2019, several prominent backers began to back out. Here’s how Facebook’s crypto future got into serious trouble.

      Synecdoche Difference here is that Facebook isn’t opening a bank, it’s trying to launch a new currency that relies on PRIVATE SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNT. The last thing we need now in today’s capitalism is a private organisation owning the currency. And Facebook doesn’t really have a clean slate when it comes to selling user data or getting hacked. Really hard to trust them.

      OtG - it's no more terrifying than the Federal Reserve (a US Private Corporation) having control of the US Dollar, the world's only reserve currency. It's no more terrifying than the US-OPEC agreement regarding the Petro-dollar.
      Libra currency represents direct competition to the US Dollar and in some cases to the Euro.
      The real problem is that national currencies are created and owned by private corporations in most developed nations. So, the issue is a fiat currency has no tangible value and can be easily manipulated. A crypto-currency can only be manipulated at the start. As time move forward, the "owners" of the currency will lose that ownership as others "buy" the coin. It means the US Govt via the Federal Reserve will not be able to create $BB out of thin air when it's politically convenient.

    • @valkyriefrost5301
      @valkyriefrost5301 4 роки тому +3

      @Jack Sparrow - First, Libra was designed to not be controlled by fb. It was designed to be initiated by 100 existing companies that already have a large digital infrastructure. So, your fear about fb controlling the world's currency does not hold water.
      Second, the US Dollar is issued by the Federal Reserve (a private bank), not by the US Govt. The cabal known as the multinational private banking industry, controlled in large part by Wall St banks, controls the US Dollar. They are not concerned with your political views because you have no power, either politically or financially. Now, Zuckerberg's cryptocurrency actual does have both political and financial power, and that REALLY scares them. So, they called their duly owned congress-critters and began applying pressure against Libra.
      Libra may die, but a global crypto currencies will come about, most like from China and India. The US and Europe will be left out cold.

I am seeing improvements in my portfolio, dividends look certain, but I have to attribute this to only to guidance of a licensed fund manager who allocates funds to a plethora of assets.

      Wechat is not doing anything funny with currency, is it? It's like paypal but with camera and QR code instead of email. Such a small seemingly insignificant improvement ...

      The problem is that the US governement will lose control over the traditional banking system. Libra certainly looks promising regardless of the illegal activities risk but it does more harm than good in general.

      TBH, you have much more to worry about from your own US Government. A lot of people would choose Facebook over the Fed or other central banks.
      Why? Because people are Facebook's clients, and if the client is unhappy, the company goes bust. This relationship is unlike that with governments/central banks: these entities don't give a finger what their own electorate/stakeholders want. They can do as they please for centuries and billions of people have no mean to stop/bust them.

      The existence of the federal reserve itself is undemocratic and uncapitalistic..
      Also, democracy cannot exist because of the sheep masses.
      Controlled Capitalism and controlled democracy have always been the way (rightfully so).

      Well. It's a something of value (good) that has customers.
      You seem to have forgotten that paper currency was originally gold coins.
      The whole ForEX is built on this.
