Facebook is reported to be reviewing its own virtual currency issue.
According to Cheddar, an American economic site, Facebook has been researching ways to add a block chain to Facebook for over a year, and has recently created a virtual currency department as part of a major reorganization.
Cedar is quoted as saying, "Facebook is seriously considering issuing virtual currency," he said, and is studying how to use block-chain technology in virtual money as well as in identity inquiries.
