I've read that Facebook is going to have its cryptocurrency
https://cryptobriefing.com/ready-for-facebook-coin/Since Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg as an entity is highly influential, do you think it would bring crypto in a positive light? I am thinking that it may raise awareness of cryptocurrency as a whole and not just bitcoin.
Facebook actively promoting a cryptocurrency (its altcoin) and Facebook promoting cryptocurrency are 2 different things. If anything, a Facebook linked cryptocurrency will be worse than fiat - you will have absolutely no privacy and you can't shift these coins to any other organization. I really don't care whether Facebook starts its own currency or not.
