Can someone help me please
People seem to be torn, however, about the actual concept of Libra's impact. Some argue that it is not so much Facebook that's the issue, but the idea of Libra in the first place. Meltem Demirors, the Chief Strategy Officer at CoinShare said, "My issue is, Facebook has chosen to style this as a cryptocurrency'. [This] has led media and lawmakers to say what they're doing is just like bitcoin and should be treated similarly, and it's fundamentally not." While others suggest that the pros could heavily outweigh the cons. David Ely, from San Diego University, commented on one of Libra's main goals. "Many individuals, especially in developing countries, have limited or no access to banks. Libra has the potential to make financial services more accessible to these individuals. Along with a means to transact with merchants, Libra could become a low-cost way to transfer funds internationally and a stable store of value in countries with volatile currencies." So are the risks worth the potential benefits or is it a disaster from the start? Facebook's head of blockchain subsidiary, David Marcus' response to skeptics and supporters is this, "We will have to make very strong commitments so that people trust us, and we will have to honor those commitments for a very long period of time to earn people's trust." While Mark Zuckerberg promised that Facebook would do everything they could to help create an innovation that people would be happy with, both in ethics and in practice. "We are trying to provide a safe and stable and well-regulated product, so that's always been the strategy and we'll continue to engage here." With Facebook's pledge to a higher system of currency and the world having a collision of opinions-what will become of Libra? Case Discussion Questions 1. Will Libra be the next bitcoin? 2. Libra launched in 2020. How has it performed so far? How do you predict it will perform in the future? 3. Is Facebook foolish to take on a task like this with the reputation they have? Why or why not
