Cannot trust Facebook to manage cryptocurrencies: US lawmakers
According to a group of law makers, Facebook Inc cannot be trusted to manage cryptocurrency and had urged the social media giant to discontinue the pilot version of its cryptocurrency wallet Novi, which was launched on Tuesday.

The letter further said that Facebook cannot be trusted in managing a digital currency, when its existing ability to manage risks and keep consumers safe has proven wholly insufficient.
