I welcome this move by Facebook even though I will not go back to use FB nor will I buy into Libra.
I am totally in the same situation.
In regards of sending money around the world I would use Dogecoin over many many cryptos. Its speed is great in my opinion and it has pretty good trading volume as well on multiple exchanges.
Moreover from my knowledge, in some European countries such as Austria, you can even cash it out at ATMs.
Libra for me is another tool towards an Orwelian created to control and supervise everything and transforming us more into products instead of treating us as beings.
I am a bit conspiratorial ever since I read more than a decade ago about the future of the humanity with a world government having total control on us, a world currency and some kind of a modern slavery in which we might live.
I am afraid of cryptocurrencies ending being manipulated by hidden and known world leaders more as slavery tools instead of financial freedom ones. I hope I'm mistaking and we will not dive deeper and deeper into the mud.
Sometimes I rather use cash instead of loosing that much of my freedom and privacy as the current financial system requires and who knows what the new one will bring.
I don't like Libra at all. A matter of fact I don't like anything related to Facebook as I don't believe in it being created by Mark Zuckerberg in a dorm and for the benefit of its users.
