„A Novi készen áll a piacra lépésre” – mondja David Marcus, mivel Diem jövője továbbra is bizonytalan

David Marcus, the leader of Facebook Financial and Novi, apparently remains confident in Novi’s ability to succeed despite more than two years of regulatory hurdles.

Augusztus 18-én blogbejegyzés, Marcus wrote: “Novi is ready to come to market. It’s regulated, and we’re confident in our operational ability to exceed the high standards of compliance that will be demanded of us.”

A Novi kezdetben Calibra néven jelent meg, egy Libra számára tervezett pénztárcát, amely ma Diem néven szerepel. Mindkettőjüket intenzív szabályozási ellenőrzésnek vetették alá, amint a Facebook 2019 júniusában bejelentette a projektet. A Diem még nem indult hivatalosan, és az azt támogató szervezet áthelyezve Svájctól az Egyesült Államokig.

Marcus alluded to this blowback from policymakers, referring to efforts to block Facebook’s involvement in the payments system as “profoundly un-American.” He further emphasized the utility of stablecoins and the need for the best-designed to come out on top.

“What defines a well designed stablecoin is how its reserves are designed and managed, how transparent these are to consumers and regulators, and what consumer protections and compliance features the issuer offers,” wrote Marcus. 

A blokk nemrég reported that Novi is exploring the use of other stablecoins. In today’s post, Marcus appeared to echo Novi’s interest in creating a sense of distance from the Diem brand: 

“In the US, we have secured licenses or approvals for Novi in nearly every state, and we will not launch anywhere we have not yet received such clearances. The Diem Association has become an independent entity.”
