Is diem getting launched in January 2021 or what ? https://piptle.medium.com/what-is-facebooks-newly-rebranded-cryptocurrency-diem-b823992ac87e
So, via Diem, Facebook wants to compete with Shopify as well? https://developers.diem.com/docs/merchant/overview
Sometime in January, at least the Diem Wiki says so. David Marcus, head of Facebook Financial, confirmed that this launch estimate is correct during Singapore's FinTech Festival, which took place the week of Dec. 7.
interesting piece from that website - "Uses & Benefits" "Diem Coin can be use in our everyday life to buy goods and services, send Diem Coins to your friends or family." Using Diem to buy everyday items, I can see websites popping up soon like DiemFood.com , DiemMobiles.com, DiemHats.com, DiemGadgets.com etc etc.......for people to buy goods online using Diem.......people and businesses will be promoting Diem and using the coin for everyday buys which is what Facebook want! Just need to search the most popular things to buy on the internet!
....I also think Diem will be big in the casino/gaming sector too, just like all of crypto is already! Someone already purchased DiemCasino dot com (not me) Could be a great investment if Diem goes the same way as Bitcoin, who knows?
