Yet Another Stablecoin
还有另一个Stablecoin
Recently there have been many emerging stablecoin projects. In fact according to Stable.Report there were more than 120 similar ventures at some point. Unfortunately as simple as the idea might sound at first making it a reality has turned out to be far harder than initially anticipated.
最近出现了许多新兴的稳定币项目。事实上，根据Stable.Report，在某些方面有超过120个类似的企业。不幸的是，这个想法最初听起来很简单，但事实证明它已经变得比最初预期的要困难得多。

你为什么要相信Facebook的东西？
According to a recent report by The NYT which summarizes the review of more than 270 internal company documents and over 60 interviews with former company employees partners former government officials and privacy advocates the social media giant has been giving tech companies access to more personal information than disclosed.

The report concludes that Facebook also shared all of its users’ friends’ names to Microsoft Bing allowed Amazon to collect their names and contact information through their friends and it allowed Yahoo to spectate on users’ friends’ posts. And the worst is probably yet to come — a few days ago the Washington D.C. state filed a lawsuit against the company because of the Cambridge Analytica scandal and the 2016 elections.
该报告得出结论，Facebook还向微软Bing分享了其所有用户的朋友的名字，允许亚马逊通过他们的朋友收集他们的姓名和联系信息，并允许雅虎观看用户的朋友帖子。最糟糕的情况可能还未到来 - 几天前，由于剑桥分析公司的丑闻和2016年的选举，华盛顿特区州对该公司提起了诉讼。

该公司是否与这一努力成功，以“帮助数十亿人” 与否还有待观察，但有一点是肯定的- Facebook是推出一个cryptocurrency。
