Some reports have surfaced that Facebook could be getting closer to adopting cryptos sooner than we think: https://cryptocoin.news/cryptocurrency/social-media-giant-weighs-up-crypto-options-19422/

Do you think they would issue their own token?

Well we know that Facebook has been in some kind of talks with steller:

But Facebook later denied that they were going to adopt steller:

Now to your question "Would they make their own crypto"?---I think yes!

Remember that telegram was going to do an ICO only to later cancel, I think this was do to the regulatory framework and uncertainty we still have in the USA. Once there is more clarity we may very well see huge enterprise level cryptos being created. Just the other day the bank of Thailand (BOT) announced the creation of their own crypto. What this would do to the existing crypto market is up to speculation but it would be extremely interesting nonetheless.

That sounds quite awesome actually, let's hope so :)

There are lots of rumours everywhere, some say they are going to buy coinbase, other say they are releasing their own coin. All this comes from nothing, just someone playing games by shilling nonsense about stellar and other crap. With all that money and tech they will surely release their own blockchain

This would be great for crypto community as the "smart money" would be starting to come in. But I don't think they will issue their own token, none of these so called giants. There are too many risks to take for them.

well that of course just fucking bullshit.
buying coinbase, kidding me.
need a ton of money.
i will chose the second option,
will be logic if they create their own coin self

i think that such a modern company as Facebook is will take into consideration the necessity of going with the time so why not

I think Facebook to launch the token itself is not the time bro, because launching the token itself must be a long and mature thought
but this is good news, what should Facebook wait for in the future
Hopefully there will be more good news from Facebook for cryptocurrency users and suppliers

Facebook will probably use blockchain technology, so there might be a native token as well but I don't think it will happen right now.

I also think thank they will need to issue their own token. By their investment and advertisement capacity they will be popular very quick. I think they do not want to miss the train about blockchain technology :)

Im not sure if they are coming up with their own token but i read somewhere about a fb official who was interested to implement blockchain into fb platform, so we may see blockchain version of fb soon.

A few reports have surfaced that Facebook could be drawing nearer to receiving cryptos sooner. This would be awesome for the crypto network as the "keen cash" would begin come in. Facebook will most likely utilize blockchain innovation, so there may be a local token too. With their speculation and promotion limit, they will be famous speedy.

First do not believe any centralized firms or any other sectors. It will give the right oath or faith towards the world people.

As I think these troll the cryptocurrencies at the same time they utilize the marketplace like how they handle the stock market shares under their control.
So as I suggested you do not consider these firms and keep on hold the coins in your wallet for making profit.

They can buy Coinbase and enter the crypto world in a big way. If they are not going to buy Coinbase, making their own coin makes no sense to me. They are centralized company. Running a blockchain makes no sense for a centralized company. It goes against the main principles of cryptocurrencies. What would they use their coin for?

The social media’s ranging from Facebook to google and Instagram all favor crypto currency as a whole and
They are only wanting to protect ico investors from phishing and fraudulent icos

The social media will back crypto currency fully soon enough

Don't know what's facebook have plans regarding crypto. But big companies like Google. Amazon, Facebook, and Microsoft used to fit their eyes on the big market. They used to create opportunities for them whenever they see anything. Already Blockchain technology doing very well in the market and many markets are adopting it. Those big giants soon come with the great idea in the market of Blockchain technology.  ;)

facebook get suck really more ... groups or sites named of crypto have an bad time at facebook...
see forword in future if there will change something

If Facebook is going to come fully into crypto, it means they will also make their own coin. Well, it is a reputable platform that has gained popularity and i think they deserve to have it.

I think that yes facebook will release its token. Now every top project wants to create its own token. They like everyone want to pay attention to catching the hyip while the Crypto currency is in demand

if they are indeed as reported, it is very likely, they will soon launch new coins that have the potential to coup old coins that already exist in the top 10 crypto ranks of the coinmarketcap version, and that is very likely to happen, because Facebook has never refused advertisements based on crypto currencies and so on

I think it would be an interesting project. I'd love to take part in a bounty. T would write a couple of articles. You can still subscription to take. With such a large team and a promoted project, you need to know everything before.

Everybody would like to take part on it! lol

At this point I doubt they can get in bed with something small, they worth so much that anything small would be insignificant and not worth their time. The main two subjects of facebook on crypto could be either creating their own token which would be sold for fiat and used for facebook ads or facebook games and such, or they could buy something big like coinbase which would let them be the biggest exchange in the world.

Coinbase plus facebooks power to advertise themselves online can combine for x10 of what coinbase is today. Hence, either way they are going to get into blockchain market, either by doing their own tokens to use on their website, or get an established business.

That would bring the presence of Coinbase up by x1000 ... That would be cool

I also heard some information. Facebook is conducting a blockchain study to create their own cryptocurrency. Hopefully we will soon get the message from facebook because if facebook is involved in crypto it will help the market go up madly.

If there's a rumours then why would you think doubt on Facebook company. THey can't beat crypto in the first nor they will study the system and jump it in the next era of innovation. We are going to have a serious mass adoption if that will happen.

i would not support a coin from facebook. it would certainly be a big event if facebook would release its own coin, but still i would not support a coin from such a company.

What if it was a stable coin? Those are pretty popular at the moment and FB sure has the money to back them up

I have seen a lot of reports about Facebook. Some reports indicate that Facebook is likely to issue its own cryptocurrency. I am very confused because they are banned from crypting and issuing coins.

In my opinion, their promotion in the crypto currency was obvious, and they were originally going to create their own coins!

This is quite awesome I think so this is a good idea. Facebook nowaday is a ver popular social media application it is wider than as we expected. Promotion and advertising is the best to promote crypto.

long ago facebook really disliked crypto and they banned ico ads and others, but why are they now turning around? honestly they themselves did not see the opportunity in crypto and they should be able to learn from steemit.

Yes, I think that Facebook will release its cryptocurrency, as the ICO sphere is still developing.

I still see more ads about cryptocurrency and still spread on facebook I think I have no problem spreading crypto on facebook to expand the crypto field.

i think that they win't miss the oppurtunity especially with that marketing power which they have.

agreed, high possibility facebook will take the same route.

Gradually, cryptocurrencies occupy their niche and if Facebook wants to keep up with the times without losing its positions,it will have to release its cryptocurrency .

Facebook might be slow in its decision about adopting cryptocurrency, he might be looking like he is caught up in the middle, but one thing is certain, Mark is a business man and he has a very large community, it is just a matter of time he will act rigthly

I think that is the best thing, because large online companies have turned to cryptocurrency. So the development of crypto will be faster, and the growth in prices will also be good.

I said it a while back that Facebook banning all crypto related matters to me is impossible. I asserted back then that all they wanted is more recognition. With development like this, I think sky is just the beginning for us.
