Facebook’s Libra is one controversial project. Now, its Ripple’s turn to criticize it.
However, Marcus has a supportive stance too. He believes that the entrance of a tech giant like Facebook will help strengthen the crypto industry. Ripple, on the other hand, is a perimeter-less network that allows anyone to use the technology. Definitely both projects are a stark contrast.
Libra’s troubles
Specifically, he acknowledged the problems that the company is facing. And added that right now his focus is on doing everything right.
Besides, on 26th September, Bloomberg mentioned that Sheryl Sandberg might testify on behalf of Facebook in front of the House Financial Services Committee about Libra’s 2020 launch.
Libra’s executive has been continuously trying to create a supportive regulatory ground for the project. Bertrand Perez, Libra Association’s MD, recently addressed esteemed speakers at a blockchain conference at the U.N. headquarters. And claimed that the project is not trying to reinvent any monetary policies using Libra reserves. In fact, he shared that Libra targets to address global issues like tackling poverty and promoting gender equality that happen to be the U.N.’s development goals.
However, judging by the overall attitude toward Libra, Facebook’s benevolence as such is in question.
