Topic: Could Facebooks LIBRA coin destroy Bitcoin? - page 3. (Read 22465 times)

there is nothing to worry about.
Bitcoin cannot be compared to other coins. instead of libra which is predicted to be present in 2020.
everyone is just speculating and guessing. Libra still has many licensing problems.

As for me Libra is not a treat for bitcoin, Libra hasn't launch yet and it has been summoned and a lot of concerned has been raised, libra is going to be a stable coin bitcoin is not.

Highly unlikely. Bitcoin has established a name and niche for itself and it will be extremely difficult to replace. The use case of BTC is simply insurmountable and this can be seen in its continuous trade pairings with other cryptocurrencies and will continue for the unforeseeable future.

The way it works is simple. Bitcoin has its own target group that includes people who understand what decentralization is and old miners and supporters who will never abandon it for a centralized project. Libra will have its own group that will include newbies who will get into what they think is crypto by clicking a banner on facebook.

There's really not much competition between centralized stable coins and decentralized coins that can be used as stores of value.

Libra will help Bitcoin by bringing more awarenes of crypto and the trustless and permissionless aspects of Bitcoin...

You cannot trust Facebook any more than central banksters!

I think they can do this completely. Libracoin is really powerful because their partners are successful businesses and can always work well in a new market by a professional team.
They will soon replace BTC and be the most powerful coin.
Through Libra coin's whitepaper, we can see Mark Zuckerberg's great ambition.
he is really trying to manipulate both the electronic money market and the outside world.

I think you have to be more specific here. Destroy BTC in terms of what?
There are several aspects such as price, volume, liquidity, usage etc...
No coin can destroy BTC in terms of price and not even Libra, after all it's just a stable coin which means it's price would be stable.
In terms of liquidity there are possible chances that Libra might compete BTC but then you never know what happens.
In terms of usage I think Libra has a good chance since it would be regulated in many countries and people will have more trust on it than BTC.

Another claim just to create some hype for the enthusiastic people to pivot their investment on Libra Coin. how delusional this claim is. I mean If they can destroy Bitcoin they already did so. They are so many Coins and tokens has been created since then no one has ever claim Victory even the strongest of them called Bitcoin Cash is its like a kid on Bitcoin.

99% people  here uneducated in simple things in life not talking about complex things which they far away from understanding this....but in order to answer you this so you will know what wait us in the future without predicting and be sure we need to dive deep from where bitcoin come...

LETS GO..
bitcoin come from peer to peer file sharing with twist called blockchain.
now why peer to peer file sharing(decentralized tech) was burn because before this there was centrelized tech which mean there was few main servers that hold all the info like movies,mp3,software and computers around the world was downloading from this main servers without be depending on each other, what happen is the governmnets pretty fast locate this servers and shut down them.

then people became more smart

and build decentralized=peer to peer file sharing which mean our private computers are the servers, for example computer A download from computer B and computer B upload something to computer Z and so on...

BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer protocol, which means that the computers in a BitTorrent “swarm” (a group of computers downloading and uploading the same torrent) transfer data between each other without the need for a central server.

now the governmnet need to shut down more then 500 million private computers and its impossible ,,its called decentralized tech.

now bitcoin is peer to peer money and not file sharing compare to libra project which is centerlized tech and decentralized tech always win...

libra is not threat and will be huge failure for sure its stable coin.

stable coin its not investment its exchange nothing more because the price dont grow its like to exchange usd to euro nothing more but even more
libra stable coins its not real crypto stable coin its centralized and control by facebook ...real crypto its mean its peer to peer money and no central control exist and no body can lock your account or other shit

so fucking simple...

decentralized tech mixed with distributed tech will eat the entire system like peer to peer file sharing it cannot go the other way,

Mark Zuckerberg wanted to create a coin that is backed by big companies like Uber, eBay, etc. So that they can stabilize the coin and in hoping that in the near future it will be a success like bitcoin though they are not similized the cryptocurrency libra to bitcoin.
I believe that Libra will bring a very big impact, a good impact on the whole market not in just bitcoin. It won't destroy bitcoin because they are all cryptocurrency.

Anyone who thinks libra could even rival bitcoin shows clearly how they didn't even understand why bitcoin is so successful to begin with.

Bitcoin is so great because it has no central organization, it has no controlling party and it is purely incorruptible. Whereas libra is literally facebook coin that will be stable and pegged to fiat currency and will be sold and managed by facebook.

If you mean investment wise libra will be stable so it won't have any chance making you any richer, if you mean technology wise bitcoin had 10 years to improve whereas facebook will be new, if you mean community wise bitcoin has built a strong one for 10 years whereas facebook has its users but not all will use libra and only a small portion will. Basically in every single aspect bitcoin is much better.

There will be no LIBRA vs BITCOIN in this currency (crypto).
As i always said, NEW cryptocurrency is new support for BITCOIN.
As long as there are more alts to come the better and give more strength to bitcoin.
We should not see the libra as a rival for BTC, we should give both a support for the future of the world currency.

all this libra talk tbh i dont think the coin matters at all.    
will its CREATION cause mass adoption of BTC tho? MAYBE!  people thought crypto was a scam, but they might buy now that fbook is making one
Libracoin tho, will be like gems in a game, an INTERNAL coin
there WONT be external markets for it, and it wont be transferable OUT of fbook
nor will it even have a desktop wallet (i dont think)

its just hype, and fbooks way of getting 1 bil off of people selling DPoS nodes haha

Well.. Its hard to tell could or not , anything can happen on this world.
Libra vs Bitcoin , for popularity.. Libra has it. Libra is Facebook coin which this coin founded by Founder of Facebook itself. Mark Zuckerberg , while Bitcoin founded by Satoshi Nakamoto which we don't know look of him and where is him now.
And if talk about price between this coin , Bitcoin has a big value right now , around 10k$ and Libra ? Meh.. we still didn't know what price later on Libra.
Its just my opinion.. and also maybe Libra hard or maybe can't beat bitcoin.

The answer is no, because the one is centralized and the other one is decentralized.
Libra is no different with the banks, they still control your money and they have full control to freeze your money. As for bitcoin, this coin is fully decentralized and no one controls it.
So I think people tends to choose bitcoin rather than Libra.

There is no way that LIBRA can destroy Bitcoin, like user above me say bitcoin have stronger community than LIBRA.
Facebook has pulled in significant partners in this project and what from my side I can say that they are not partners in this project (Mastercard,Visa, Vodafon, Coinbase, Xapo and etc...) LIBRA there would be nothing of this coin from my side of view.

The kind of hype you guys are giving this Libra coin is really too much. I won't be surprised if this Libra coin ends up nowhere, to be sincere… what makes people think that Libra coin is going to beat Bitcoin is what I don't really know. Bitcoin is the number cryptocurrency and many altcoins has tried to beat Bitcoin but all of them has all failed and I don't expect Libra coin to achieve that, cause there altcoins that are far much better, I think. And another thing you have to know is that whenever people talk about cryptocurrency the first thing that comes to their mind is Bitcoin andb no other thing and nothing is going to change that. Bitcoin will always remain at top, LIbra coin will only compete with altcoins.

@Nhebu you’re absolutely correct Libra is gaining attention due to it’s association with Facebook, who has billions of followers spread across the globe. The Forbes article you’re referring to can you share the link, cause last I had read many companies were on board to support it, not to make profits from it. Bitcoin will not be effected by Libra cause once the hype dies, people will realise Libra can’t offer the returns or features of bitcoins and they’ll immediately dump it and purchase bitcoins.

Well, we can't deny that Libra gains an attention today because it is new. And its not far that it can take also millions of potential users. And I had read from the forbes news that libra will initially be controlled by some of the world’s largest companies, who will profit directly from the use of this currency. What do you think about it? I guess people will somehow divert their attention with it but bitcoin created a trademark that it became the most successful cryptocurrency. Let's see how Libra affects Bitcoin.
