"On June 18, Facebook finally released details of Libra, its
long-anticipated cryptocurrency. But the project, as well as having
regulators up in arms, is fundamentally misconceived. Absolutely
everything Facebook described in its press conference on Libra last
Tuesday could have been done on a conventional financial computer
network system — and better."
David Gerard on Facebook’s new financial amibitions.
