FB has been very obviously investing in crypto currency stuff. David Marcus has been put in charge of this as it says in the article, and I take it he is an important person. Their recruiters were bugging the hell out of me for a while, which indicates they're more interested in using ledger tech in advertising (something I'm working on) than in exchanges, which in fact is along the lines of their core business needs. I mean, when was the last time the Economist or Independent broke a Silicon Valley merger story? Pretty much never, AFAIK. The substance of the story is Marcus has coinbase connections, and that's about it. I suppose there is the eternal Winkelvoss/Zuck rivalry, but if that's really at play here, well, lol.
