Facebook considering its own cryptocurrency Payments

As per the news reports, the social media giant Facebook plans its own cryptocurrency-based payment system that it could launch for billions of users worldwide.

The system would use a digital coin similar to bitcoin, but different in that Facebook would aim to keep the coin’s value stable.

Bitcoin and similar cryptocurrencies have been susceptible to wild fluctuations in value.It could reportedly undermine credit cards by sidestepping the processing fees that generate much of their revenue.

The news said Facebook is recruiting dozens of financial firms and online merchants to launch the network.

Facebook’s plans may include ways to financially reward users who interact with ads or other features.

Facebook says only that it is exploring many different applications for cryptocurrency technology.
