The American programmer and entrepreneur in the field of Internet technologies expressed interest in the feasibility of studying cryptocurrency technologies and the possibility of their implementation on the Facebook network.
Mark Zuckerberg considers the confrontation between decentralization and centralization to be the most interesting point in the technological aspect. For a large number of users, the decentralization of cryptocurrencies has become a symbol of free trade and a driving force for the development of digital technologies. But, according to the head of Facebook Inc, many have lost faith in the power of technology. After all, the increasing use of technologies to track citizens by states or large companies convinces users of the direction of technology towards centralization.
“This must be countered by important trends, such as encryption and cryptocurrencies, which take power away from centralized systems and return it to the people. At the same time, they are associated with risks of more difficult control. I'm interested in learning more about the positive and negative aspects of these technologies and their possible use in our services,” Mark Zuckerberg posted on his Facebook page.
Recall that last year, security and technology experts from Facebook and Google announced their intention to defend the “digital democracy” of the United States using blockchain technology.
