Facebook ' s controversial ' cryptocurrency ' project is turning into a bit of a soap opera, starring the tech giant and regulators as the main characters.
Just yesterday, Germany 's finance minister Olaf Scholz said the departure of several high-profile partners from the project was a good sign, but unsurprisingly the Libra Association had a different take altogether.
The Association, which just this week managed to get 21 organizations to sign its membership charter, took to Twitter to defend itself.

It's not entirely clear whether the tweet, which I'm sure was supposed to read "doesn't agree with us," was directed at one single article or simply a message being sent to address sentiment across the entire industry .
Mark Carney, the governor of the Bank of England , has leapt to Facebook's defence , warning that the UK 's "slow and expensive" payments system was "not good enough in this day and age."

Mark 'Hogan' Sheffer was a game-changer in the soap opera world
Not the kind of person who studies and strives and sweats over honing the kind of skill it takes to tell a compelling, engrossing tale punctuated with pathos, empathy and wit sharper than a straight razor.
He was born with it, as if it were encoded in his DNA. There was nothing he could do about it. It is what he was.
His younger brother, Craig, remembers when they were kids, Mark would write plays and he and Mark would perform them for an audience of two, their parents, Rock and Anna. The reviews were always good, as you would expect! What is Libra? All you need to know about Facebook's new ...www.theguardian.com ...libra - ...cryptocurrency Facebook says Libra is a "global currency and financial infrastructure". In other words, it is a digital asset built by Facebook and powered by a new Facebook-created version of blockchain, the...!! But looking back, Craig recalls those plays were actually pretty good.
Mark was always reading and writing and making up stories, even as a kid. He was reading literature classics when he was 10 – a big fan of E.B. White. The stories he wrote were always about "crazy stuff," his brother said, but he was able to pull it off, setting that insanity in a world that made perfect sense. "He was just on a different level," Craig said. "He was a genius."
