“Send money the way you send a message or a photo” Facebook announces on the website of its news app.

Gemini Co-founder Cameron Winklevoss believes that this digital payment system will not be the last one and we can expect that the FAANG companies (Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, and Google) will begin adding coins over the next year or two.

Here’s his post on Twitter below.

XRP could play a role

One Twitter user suggested that Ripple‘s XRP could play a massive role in all of this.

As reported by Oracle Times, someone said that Ripple’s digital asset would bridge these coins via ILP.

A user responded: “no, it won’t, xrp loses its whole use once facebook coin, apple coin, Samsung coin, Google coin, yahoo coin, jpm coin, goldsac coin, boa coin all hit the market.”

The response he received was: “You are entirely misaligned and have not done your research. How do you expect those ledgers to connect together and transfer one coin to the other? That’s where XRP will bridge them. Stop spouting out biased opinions and do some research.”
