since the past few months, Facebook decided to launch its own coin, they have been a lot of controversies, as some compared the altcoin directly with bitcoin.

one of its major controversy is if it can upset the world economy, if not regulated.  The worry of majority is  prospective firm having as much power as countries in creating a means of payment. 

According to Benoit Coeure, Global stable coin could boost competition in payment sector, reduce fees for consumer and support greater financial inclusion, but warned it might undermine the effort to clamp down on money laundering, terrorism financing and tax compliance.

Is Facebook launching a stable coin on a global scale without regulations harmful to world economy?
Imagine how much money will escape certain countries to facebook's pocket? Libra is a centralized crypto and the one who issues that coin will hold the power, such a thing is dangerous if they are just bunch of greedy people controlling some percent of world money, we got enough with all those ultra rich people that rule over more than a half the country's economy. Libra if not regulated will just add another problem, that's just my 2 cents.

They are having a hearing on this and the US government will not allow such thing to happen, because Facebook is operating in their territory they will give them a lot of compliance rules and will be heavily regulated, this is to make sure that Facebook will not undermine the dollar.

Obviously libra will be regulated by their government, it is impossible for the United States to leave it alone, because they do not want to lose taxes and other benefits. But more importantly libra will not upset the world economy and libra will be the same as other centralized payment instruments based on dollars.

In general, the very idea of cryptocurrency undermines the financial sector. Because this is a different world where banks and governments are not able to control this market today. For this, of course, any projects of such scale lead us to a new world. However, countries may simply ban cryptocurrencies. And back to the usual banking systems.

Yes it's harmful for the gov't because if people will lean on facebook's stable coin, then who's going to use dollars anymore? that's why they are threaten and they are hearing the facebook's management regarding this matter. But if the gov't just want to tie up with the project, they can also do that because it is centralized.

it can not be created unregulated. there is simply no way! the reason is also pretty simple, because it is centralized! the government has an entity to put pressure on and force anything they want on them exactly because of that  so they will have no other way to be regulated. and that is assuming the government is going to allow Libra to even be created and exist.

will it upset anything? no! does PayPal upset anything? that is a stable coin too and pegged to US dollar. so there is no difference in this new one either.
