Libra and digital currency
According to the white paper, the global borderless Libra coin has three cores: blockchain based, real asset guarantee and independent association governance. In other words, Libra coin is a "stable currency" guaranteed by the real asset reserve. Each Libra coin will have a basket of currencies or assets of corresponding value for trust endorsement, which is supervised by the founding members of Libra coin Association, and each founding member is responsible for running a verifier node. Facebook believes that there are still 1.7 billion alts in the world who are not exposed to the financial system and cannot enjoy formal financial services, and the current financial transaction costs are too high, so this pattern needs to be broken. According to its assumption, Libra is a stable currency and a super sovereign digital currency. By issuing "Libra coin", we will explore the establishment of a simple, borderless currency and financial infrastructure for billions of people
Libra is linked to a basket of currency deposits or government bonds, and it is more in line with the public's habitual thinking that it is linked to cryptocurrencies without any asset support, such as bitcoin. Therefore, the listing of Libra currency will inevitably have an impact on the online digital currency. Some of the funds were diverted to Libra
however, the impact on real money is very limited, because the right to issue digital money will inevitably be concentrated in the hands of central banks, and private companies will not be allowed to be involved in this field.
in June of this year, the world's social giant Facebook released the "digital currency" of the encrypted digital currency. Once released, it received widespread attention in the world, and the "Heaven coins" released by them will compete with WeChat and Alipay. Their goal is to hope that "Heaven currency" can become the most circulated currency in the world. So for WeChat and Alipay, this is also a very difficult challenge. p>
