Facebook Messenger VP Joins Coinbase's Board of Directors

in #news7 years ago

Digital currency exchange startup Coinbase has announced the appointment of a Facebook executive to its board of directors.

In joining the board, David Marcus, vice president of messaging products at Facebook, will bring years of experience in building large-scale mobile products, according to a Coinbase statement posted yesterday.

Previously president of online payment giant PayPal, Marcus said that he has been "fascinated by cryptocurrencies since 2012," and that the technology "has the potential to materially change the lives of people around the world."

He joined Paypal after his own mobile payment startup Zong was bought up by eBay for nearly a quarter of a billion dollars in 2011.Preye 20171120_212411.jpg

Hey,
I see you are new to steemit, WELCOME!
You may want to take my advice:
Do not power up your posts. Getting 50/50 is much more profitable now as SBD has 6 times more value than steem. It may change in the future but I usually try to act according to present opportunities. :)

Hope you don't mind my advice. :)
