Facebook<\/a> Inc. is considering building products and features related to nonfungible tokens, or NFTs, the digital assets that have taken off with the rise of blockchain<\/a> technology.
“We’re definitely looking at the number of ways to get involved in the space because we think we’re in a really good position to do so,” Facebook<\/a> executive David Marcus said Tuesday in an interview on Bloomberg Television.
Marcus leads F2, or Facebook Financial, the internal group developing the company’s Novi digital wallet. That wallet could be used to hold NFTs, he said. “When you have a good crypto wallet like Novi will be, you also have to think about how to help consumers support NFTs,” he added. “We’re definitely thinking about this.” He wasn’t more specific about what kinds of NFT-related products Facebook might build.
Facebook’s digital wallet is “ready now,” Marcus said, but the company has been waiting to launch it until it can do so alongside Diem, the digital currency previously known as Libra, which Marcus co-founded from within Facebook in 2019.
Plans are for Diem to offer a so-called stablecoin backed by the U.S. dollar, but it’s unclear when the coin will be introduced. The project faced immense pushback from lawmakers and regulators when it was unveiled, and while Facebook is still a partner on the project, Diem is now run independently.
Marcus said Facebook would consider launching the Novi wallet without Diem “as a last resort,” but he believes both are necessary to change the way people make payments. The social media giant’s hope is that people will use Facebook’s wallet to transfer Diem, which could reduce costly fees and lower the time it takes to send money cross-border.
Without more innovation in payments technology, Marcus said, countries in the West like the U.S. will struggle to keep up with China in adapting to a world where digital payments are dominant.
“We’re really falling behind at an alarming rate,” he said.

脸谱网inc .)正在考虑建筑产品和功能相关nonfungible令牌,或非功能性测试,起飞的数字资产的崛起区块链技术。
“我们在搜集多种方式参与的空间,因为我们认为我们在一个很好的位置,”脸谱网执行长大卫·马库斯说,周二在接受彭博电视台采访时说。
马库斯F2,内部集团或Facebook金融发展中公司的诺维电子钱包。钱包可以用来举行非功能性测试,他说。“当你有一个好的加密的钱包像诺,你还必须考虑如何帮助消费者支持非功能性测试,”他补充道。“我们肯定思考这个问题。“他没有更具体的关于什么样的NFT-related Facebook可能构建产品。
数字钱包是Facebook的“准备好了,”马库斯说,但该公司一直在等待启动它,直到它可以这样做除了吴廷琰,数字货币以前称为天秤,马库斯在Facebook在2019年合伙创建了这一基金会。
计划支持的所谓stablecoin吴廷琰提供美元,但目前尚不清楚当硬币将被引入。项目从立法者和监管者面临巨大的阻力公布时,尽管Facebook仍然是一个合作项目,吴廷琰现在独立运行。
马库斯说,Facebook将考虑推出Novi钱包没有吴廷琰”作为最后的手段”,但他认为改变人们的支付方式都是必要的。社交媒体巨头的希望是,人们将使用Facebook的钱包吴廷琰转移,从而减少昂贵的费用和降低跨境汇款的时间。
没有支付更多的创新技术,马库斯说,美国等西方国家将很难跟上中国在适应一个数字支付占主导地位的世界。
“我们真的落后以惊人的速度,”他说。
