Stepping into what?

[WhatTheHey]

    This looks like a step toward the 1 world system to say the least!    It would seem Facebook is leading the way into the darkness of decline.  This 1 world currency idea (Cryptocurrency) is the same as putting all your eggs in 1 basket.  Doesn't seem like a good idea to me.  With all our eggs in one basket, all it takes is a startle or stumble and all we will have is a mess.  With all that can go wrong in a monetary system based on a tangible currency, imagine all that can go wrong with a digital one.  A "hackable  currency", sounds like a very bad idea to me.  I mean, Facebook has not been the most honest or secure people trap to begin with, so it seems to be a bad place to start. 
   So we shall see what happens in the next exciting adventure of humanity the cat.  I doubt we have 9 lives though.    They just keep dropping us out the window to see if we'll land on our feet and hope we won't notice they keep going up a floor each time.

FaceBook needs to take their crypto-currency and stuff it up their ass with ghost pepper sauce 

The Fed reserve system is bad enough, at least we do get something to stuff in our pockets and hold in our hands, too much digital/electronic theft these days as it is...

At some point Facebook will steal your crypto currency when they likely block the user and prevent access to their funds. It would be another tool they use to censor. People will be even less likely to speak up if it's going to affect the pocket book more so than the ego.

Anyone dumb enough to buy into it will be sorry in the end.
