They just beat FB because they are earlier to announce. While facebook, gave some hint but there's no final words from them. All they do was to hire some blockchain engineers and specialists but we just can't be sure if they really are planning out for their own crypto.

This is just another altcoin that will have to pair with bitcoin but if VK will have its usecase to the level that their users will enjoy it and at the same time treats it as precious coin for their platform, it will be huge success for them.

Good development for the crypto world, but I guess we need more.
The Russian social media giant VK has launched its mineable internal currency called VK Coin. Anyone saw this coming? While all the buzz was on Facebook and its plan to launch its own cryptocurrency, it appears that VK has been planning to launch first and beat FB  Grin

You said that it is mineable, so probaly it will not be backed like Facebook coin, right?
What is the purpose of this coin? Nothing? Only backed by a big company promises?
I hope you can find what you are looking for in this link : https://cointelegraph.com/news/russian-social-media-giant-vk-launches-mineable-vk-coin

My take on this is -  just another crypto adoption by a known social media network.
This would create mass adoption for its users. But I don't know how far is the reach of VK, in terms of the number of users?
They should create a valid reason why it should exist. Otherwise, this is just another project riding the hype of crypto projects.

I think this will be a very good thing if Russia also launches its own digital currency, and I am very sure it will be able to beat Facebook grin for the future.

If it really happens, then I think it will be positive for cryptocurrency currency. But honestly, I think that this coin will be very little like Bitcoin.
