I'll be honest, I don't 'get' bitcoin and other crypto currencies. What their value is based on, how they are issued and held and exchanged. Facebook though seems to think that their users need a currency with which to transact business on the app, so they are issuing their own....upon approval. While I think I understand why FB would be interested in this, I really don't think it's a good idea, and do think that congressional calls regarding the monopolies of the Silicon Valley's giants to break them up is warranted.
