Facebook hopes the cryptocurrency it backs will launch in 2021, top exec says
Facebook should be given the “benefit of the doubt” by regulators in its ambitions to launch the cryptocurrency it backs and its digital wallet, the head of the company’s financial services arm said on Monday.
David Marcus, the head of Facebook Financial, also known as F2, said he hopes both the cryptocurrency called Diem and the social networking firm’s wallet Novi will launch next year.
