The CEO of the social media platform Facebook mentioned, he is thinking about to implement the cryptocurrency Bitcoin in Facebook. He means, the system could help to decentralize the technology, the web and the power of Facebook. This stands in contrast with the current business-model of Facebook.
Mark Zuckerberg plans to check the use of crypto currencies in Facebook. Firstly he wants to check the pro and contra of the Blockchain-Technology and after this he wants to think over, how it could be usefull for the Facebook society. The control and power could be given back from a few persons to the crowds, mentioned the Facebook-Co-Founder.
The announcement of Zuckerberg could be a change in the whole company-policy. He himself means it is a big problem that the force in the internet is based on four concerns: Amazon, Apple, Facbeook and Google. The crypto-tokens and the blockchain-technic could it make possible to set this force back like in the 90´s, when humans thought, technology would be cause a decentralization of the force.
The message was picked up very positive by the Bitcoin- and crypto-fans. Bitcoin increased with over 3% and the total market cap of cryptocurrencies is now over 800.000.000!
It will be interesting how serious Zuckerberg means his statement.
I believe that Zuckerberg is just going to create his own coin instead of partnering with one! What do you think?
