Colin and Sara are joined by a host of brilliant guests this week to talk about the latest and greatest news in blockchain, including:
\\n\\nFirst up, we take a look at Project Libra. Facebook\'s long-rumored stablecoin will be at the center of a brand new payments network and is in discussions with payment networks Visa and Mastercard. The group discusses whether Facebook could be the Metro Bank or Monzo and asks if there\'s a strong enough use-case for the coin at all (02:16).
\\n\\nNext we talk about SIX\\u2019s planned digital exchange going live with a native token and an \\u201cinitial digital offering\\u201d (IDO) service in 2020. By 2021, they expect the SIX Digital Exchange (SDX) to be tokenizing traditional securities such as equities, fixed income and funds, provided the regulatory set-up is in place. Our guests ask if the token was made just because everyone else was doing it (11:30).
\\n\\nWe also have a great Tweet of the Week from @VladZamfir on calling Ether money.
