New York For the last year, Facebook has been signaling it wants in on the cryptocurrency phenomenon. At its F8 developers conference last month, cofounder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg said he wants to make sending money as easy as sending a photo: digital, immediate, free and secure.
On Tuesday, the company formally unveiled its highly-anticipated digital currency project. It's called Libra. Facebook also announced the creation of the Libra Association, an independent organization that will manage the currency, and Calibra, a unit of Facebook that will build applications related to the new digital currency. Facebook has 2.4 billion users around the world, an audience that could help it spur a bigger mainstream adoption of cryptocurrency than others have yet to generate.

ClareCNN So what happens to conservatives Facebook just keeps your money?
ClareCNN I would never trust Facebook, because I'm not an idiot but, 65,000,000 people voted for Clinton, so there are plenty out there. I own 8 good cryptos and when 2 billion people start blindly and stupidly buying the most well known ones, I will become a millionaire. Libra, Libra.

I wouldn't trust Facebook with anything to do with my money
that would be nice. But I've got some reservations about the security of Facebook. Can they tackle scammers, mostly from Africa?😤
Too bad India is working to ban crypto-currencies on their country. Probably Facebook's biggest market. I'd be super scared to let Facebook control a currency - the whole idea behind BitCoin was that no-one would control it.
Yes, because Facebook needs another way to dominate your life, right?
