In 2021, Facebook Plans To introduce Its Own 
Cryptocurrency
The digital financial revolution is the new thing that the world is now talking about. 
We have seen so many changes and developments in financial transactions ever 
since the world got to know about cryptocurrencies. In 2009, the concept of peer-
to-peer transactions surged with Bitcoin, and now we are exploring new ways to 
make it the new normal. Many big names and companies are now coming up with 
their digital currencies. The new addition to this list is Facebook. There has been a 
lot of conversation about Facebook launching its currency, and now we have the 
news that Facebook will be launching Libra.

What is Libra?  
To aid seamless financial transactions, Facebook will be launching its 
cryptocurrency Libra. This is backed by Mastercard, Visa, and PayPal and will aim 
to exchange currencies. As per Facebook, Libra will be less volatile as compared 
to other digital currencies like Bitcoin. There are some of the big names that have 
already invested in this project. Names like Spotify and Uber have already 
invested in it.

Another notable feature of Libra is that it is designed to be accessible globally. 
Moreover, it is a low-cost payment system. As per Facebook, Libra is here to 
complement the conventional mode of payment. It will make this payment 
available to all, and it will be working in sync with domestic currencies.

Libra will be working on a decentralized platform that will have different validators. 
They will work in sync with each other to process the transaction. These validators 
will also be a member of the Libra Association. The work of this association will be 
to provide a framework for the governance of the network. Facebook plans to have 
a network of supporters that will be initially limited to geographical location, and 
later, it will become public. Libra will shift to become a permissionless system.
