This is not the first time that Facebook, which is now Meta, has revealed plans to make cryptocurrency payments through WhatsApp. In a 2018 report, Bloomberg said that the company is working on a ‘stablecoin’. Knowledgeable people told that the company is developing a stablecoin. It will be a kind of digital currency, which will be pegged to the US dollar and will have very low volatility. However, these people are not authorized to discuss the internal plan of the company.
Now, three years later, WhatsApp has partnered with Novi to allow people to transfer money using cryptocurrencies. Apart from America, this service is also being tested in Guatemala.
