Libra, a digital currency introduced in 2020, is backed by financial assets to reduce volatility. It is managed by the Libra Association, a nonprofit based in Switzerland, with founding members like Uber and PayPal. The association validates transactions and manages the currency reserve. Calibra, a digital wallet for Libra, will be available on Messenger, WhatsApp, and as a standalone app, allowing users to send Libra and make purchases.
