ECB Exec: Libra has been a "wake up call" for central bankers

That part isn't really all that problematic. The key problem is the supply of this 'stablecoin'. Will Libra continued to be issued as long as fiat money can be deposited, or is there a finite supply of Libra? If the latter, who controls how much is released. If truly a derivative currency that is pegged to the basket, how does one prevent unilateral devaluation of a component of the basket from destabilizing the 'stablecoin'? ECU required significant monetary controls on the way to Euro.
