In Congress, the United States appointed another hearing on the digital currency Libra

On July 17, the Financial Services Committee of the US House of Representatives will hold a meeting on the Libra digital currency. It is reported by The Hill, with reference to the head of the committee, Maxim Waters.

It is noteworthy that among US lawmakers, it was Waters who became the most active public critic of the Facebook initiative and a number of large companies that formed the Libra Association in Geneva, Switzerland. In particular, she urged the social network to suspend the development of digital currency and said that the United States could not allow Libra to compete with the dollar.

It is likely that David Marcus, Calibra CEO, will be present at the hearing, who will take the full blow on himself.

Recall, July 16, a meeting of the US Senate Banking Committee will be held, at which lawmakers will also discuss Libra.
