What do they mean to "block Libra"? To block merchants using it?

If yes, I think it won't matter at all. EU already have real-time electronic payments and mostly everyone uses contactless cards or appley/android pay.

I think the benefit of Libra, as peer-to-peer money is valuable for countries in Africa or other parts of the world where cash is king and unsafe (due to high crime rate).

From what I've seen here in London (UK), mostly tourists use cash. Everybody else uses contactless payments. You can pay with contactless cards or apple/android pay on the public transport or on your corner grocery store.

And with the new fin-tech banks like Monzo, Starling or Revolut the banking apps are light years ahead of traditional banks.

I think this view of inequality is misleading. It put emphasis that the top richest should be not rich, or they are not good people. It's a defeating viewpoint that blames other for not having success.

When in fact top 10% richest helped much more people along the way than all average combined. And the consequence is being rich.

Instead of complaining about inequality (aka making the rich poorer), better to think about how to make the poor richer.

Thanks for the input. It picks randomly from the list; if the coin is not listed at that time it chose another one until fits. "Oh Nooo" error is returned when cryptocompare api fails.

Nextjs (react) + Graph.cool as a backend

Nextjs provide out of the box server side rendering, routing, code splitting and all the new front-end stuff out of the box with just one command (no need to setup webpackj, babel, etc)

Graph.cool gets you backend as a service with grapgql. You can manage your db from their consle panel. You're not locked in to their service, you can install it on your cloud cluster too.
