Facebook’s Calibra wallet will use a brand new cryptocurrency, Libra. The cryptocurrency will be governed by the Libra Association – a purpose-built, independent non-profit headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland. As of today, the Libra Association has 28 co-founders, including MasterCard, PayPal, Visa, and of course, Facebook.

 

Eventually, Facebook said, it wants to offer more services for people and businesses, including the ability to easily pay bills, buy a cup of coffee with the scan of a code and use it to ride public transit without the need for cash or a physical pass.

I can see this going very well in order to recoup losses from having to pay a ~five billion dollars fine. LOL

Interested to see how they go about this. I wonder if this will be a flash in the pan type of thing or if it will actually take off
