Sure, doesn't change the fact that libra started by facebook and facebook started by one person, zuck.



I didn’t have Facebook,the social network way back, in my mind when trying to make my argument (I definitely should have made this clearer).

Remove the history behind Facebook and just look at the numbers of the LibraCoin consortium and you’re not dealing with just one person. That’s the lens someone wanting to make a competitor should be looking through, not that LibraCoin has a long thread tying back to “just” Zuck. That catalyst has little to do with the challenge of competing with LibraCoin as it has started today.


I'm arguing against original argument that one person can't do anything against something big.

Any changes start from one person trying to do so. I'm arguing that’s the lens you should have in mind.
