1. Another one?
2. In the sense that it'll likely lift other cryptos, sure. Is that actually a good thing?
3. Facebook IS the internet for many consumers in third world countries as their FB access is subsidized and free. I find it hard to believe FB isn't going to similarly force-push Libra.
Hacker News is biased against both Facebook and cryptocurrency, and for good reasons. I hope Libra fails.
