Diem digital currency to launch in 2021
Facebook-backed Diem digital currency is expected to launch before the end of the year. The project was launched as the Libra project in 2019 by Facebook. It was later revolutionized to Diem to include more companies.The project was initially designed as a universal currency tied to a basket of sovereign currencies such as the U.S. dollar and the Euro. However, the project was watered down after facing significant opposition from regulators globally. Facebook opted instead to launch multiple stablecoins backed by different fiat currencies.
According to CNBC, the Diem Association, the Swiss-based nonprofit entity in charge of developing the Diem digital currency, wants to launch it before the end of the year. Indeed, a source close to the matter told CNBC that the project would start with a single stablecoin pegged to the U.S. dollar in 2021.
The anonymous source said the pilot details are yet to be made public since they will be small in scale. The pilot will focus largely on transactions between individual consumers. It might also have an option that allows users to buy goods and pay for services. That said, the Diem Association has not yet set a date for the launch.
Diem project faced a lot of criticism
Facebook had faced a lot of criticism with the Diem project. The social media platform has nearly three billion users globally. Politicians and central banks are feeling unease about the prospect of launching a stablecoin that such a large number of people could use. The worry is that the currency could threaten monetary stability and potentially enable money laundering.Not to mention, Facebook’s involvement also caused some concerns as the platform has been criticized for not adequately protecting user privacy. Michael Gronager, CEO of blockchain analysis firm Chainalysis, said, “I think it will get past the gates this year. It would be a missed opportunity if not. At the same time, it’s one of the multiple initiatives happening, and it’s similar to Tesla buying $1.5 billion in crypto. This is just part of a big movement, not a new movement.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?
We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
