“While it was previously reported that Facebook was meeting with venture capitalists to secure funding to back the token, people familiar with the matter said those talks have cooled in recent weeks.”

Facebook is raising $1bn by charging 100 companies $10mm each to operate a node on its crypto network.

What?! ?https://t.co/9yZX73YTQ0

What was clear from reporting this story is that Facebook is being very, very ambitious about this digital token, and wants to see it be as ubiquitous as USD or EUR. The goal is to also bank the unbanked in developing nations.

Also it won't be called GlobalCoin.
