Facebook正式公开加密货币Libra计划
Facebook加密货币“Libra”官方网站正式上线。该公司表示,Libra将由一个全球组织管理,预定于2020年上半年进行针对性发布。Facebook还发布这款加密货币的白皮书,详细说明该计划。
同时Facebook成立子公司“Calibra”,将建立一款新的电子钱包。这款电子钱包既可在Facebook Messenger和WhatsApp使用,也会有独立的iOS和Android应用。 Facebook在白皮书中宣称,推出Libra是为了打造一个新的去中心化区块链、一种低波动性加密货币和一个智能合约平台。目前全球仍有17亿成年人未接触到金融系统,无法享受传统银行提供的金融服务,而在这之中,有10亿人拥有手机,近5亿人可以上网;同时,现有的加密货币在保值和交换媒介方面均表现欠佳。Facebook将携手金融部门进行合作和创新,共同建立更低成本、更易进入、联系更紧密的全球金融系统。
因此,Libra的使命是建立一套简单的、无国界的货币和为数十亿人服务的金融基础设施。它将由三个部分组成:
1.建立在安全、可扩展和可靠的区块链基础上;
2.以赋予其内在价值的资产储备为后盾;
3.由独立的非营利性成员制组织Libra协会治理,该协会的任务是促进此金融生态系统的发展,总部设在瑞士日内瓦。
目前,Libra协会“创始人”首批组织包括(按行业):
支付业:Mastercard、PayPal、PayU(Naspers金融分支)、Stripe、Visa
技术和交易平台:Booking Holdings、eBay、Facebook/Calibra、Farfetch、Lyft、Mercado Pago、Spotify AB、Uber Technologies, Inc.
电信业:Iliad、Vodafone Group
区块链业:Anchorage、Bison Trails、Coinbase, Inc.、Xapo Holdings Limited
风险投资业:Andreessen Horowitz、Breakthrough Initiatives、Ribbit Capital、Thrive Capital、Union Square Ventures
非营利组织、多边组织和学术机构:Creative Destruction Lab、Kiva、Mercy Corps、Women's World Banking
Facebook称,希望到2020年上半年针对性发布时,Libra协会的创始人数量能够达到100个左右。Facebook将保有领导角色至2019年结束,并为此创立受监管的子公司Calibra,以确保社交数据与金融数据相互分离,同时代表其在Libra网络中构建和运营服务。
Facebook还表示,Libra的目标是成为一种稳定的数字加密货币,将全部使用真实资产储备(称为“Libra 储备”)作为担保,并由买卖Libra并存在竞争关系的交易平台网络提供支持。Libra并不与单一货币“挂钩”,也不会使用黄金作为支持,而是将采用一系列低波动性资产(比如,由稳定且信誉良好的中央银行提供的现金和政府证券)进行抵押。
此前有媒体报道称,分析师对Facebook的加密货币项目很是看好,表示或许会为该公司创造新的营收渠道。而伴随着Facebook宣布进军加密货币领域,其股价周一上涨4.2%。
