Perhaps mildly off-topic, but it looks like Google is not in on the project?

  Why would they want to be in it?

    facebook would not want to invite google, since facebook's biggest competitor is google (advertising wise).

      Agreed. Seems Google would throw 10mil at a project like this as a tax write off, if it was allowed in...another example of how this isn't now nor ever going to be decentralized.

    Well, it seems like if the biggest social network is initiating currency project then rather have a foot in than out, no? More broadly, it seems that yet another media campaign to push Facebook's bowl over somehow is going on. Not a fan of the company by any means, but it does look like this project has merit and will happen whether the naysayers want it or not. Given this I would just assume that any big tech company would like to participate with their knowhow. And yes, maybe it won't succeed, but it's hard to see how it wouldn't. I guess the regulators are the biggest possible obstacle.
