Dear @chronos
It's hard not to see that currently discussions around Facebook and their libra are attracting attention and are very intense. And to tell you the truth, personally don't know yet what to think about it.
I'm mostly interested how FED and other central banks will react if they will realize that Libra is a threat for current financial system.
Personally I will not put my trust in Facebook and I don't think I will ever use Libra. However I will surely pay attention to this project as it may turn our financial world up-side-down....
Important question I would like to ask you, and hopefully you would share your own opinion:
- many people out there seem to see Libra as a threat to current monetary system. I'm one of those. However I've learned that global economy is build on debt. And all debts are in FIAT currency. So does it really matter if people use Libra to pay for their "groceries" and shop online? They still need to pay all their debts and mortgages for next 20-30 years in their local fiat currency.
For that reason alone I cannot see monetary system being changed much. Neither by libra or bitcoin or any other crypto. Debts, goverment expenses, trade oil - all of it will still require $$$.
What do you think? Upvote on the way.
Yours,
Piotr
Great question. Here's one thought: many people store their savings in USD. If they switched to using a different store of value, and bought USD only to repay debts, pay taxes, etc., demand for USD could plummet. This might cause a crisis.

Thanks for your kind comment @chronos
I also wanted to make some suggestion.
My impression is, that the hardest part of attracting attention on STEEMIT is the fact, that our audience have very little chance to actually find our publications. Lack of solid notification system is an obvious issue. And regardless how hard I would try - there is very little chance I would find out about your new interesting publications (my feed is just flooded with to many posts).
Please allow me to share some suggestion with you. If you would ever publish content related to blockchain, crypto, artificial intelligence, psychology etc. then perhaps you could simply send me memo with link to that post.
This way not only I would have a chance to read your publication, drop a comment but I will also `upvote it right away with almost 20k SP voting power (I also have almost 10k PAL tokens, which may give you some extra benefits is you're using PALnet.io)
Please let me know what do you think. This surely should sound like a interesting offer :))
Cheers, Piotr
