After the banking giant JP Morgan Chase launched its own digital currency (JPM Coin), it was the social networking tycoon Facebook who planned to develop their own electronic money project, with participation of the 'big boys' have made the electronic money market more active and stimulated the need for more electronic money.
It is important to know that most banks and credit institutions now charge fees for services and this is the weak point for the electronic money project of "big men" with billions of users. "Create a" flat world "without charging for electronic payment transactions, giving users better security technologies (blockchain) and benefits.
Everyone is talking about Facebook and its plans about cryptocurrency or blockchain network. But there is no real announcement about it. Where did you hear or read this? A few weeks ago, Facebook's CEO M. Zuckerberg talked in F8 Developers meeting. But he didn't mention about cryptocurrencies. If he has a thought about it, wouldn't he mention in that meeting?
It's true that rumors about Facebook will issue their own coins since last year and until now there is no real evidence from Facebook to develop the coin.
In my opinion Facebook will indeed issue its own coins, but Facebook itself does not want to be serious about it and I think in the future when digital currencies become popularity, Facebook will really be serious about this Facebook coin.
