Meta Platforms’ cryptocurrency wallet, Novi, will allow users to send and receive money through the social media giant’s messaging app, WhatsApp.

The pilot programme is open to a limited number of people in the US, Novi head Stephane Kasriel said in a tweet late on Wednesday.

Meta Platforms, formerly Facebook, has been working on the wallet app for several months, while scaling back its global plans for rolling out a digital currency called diem on regulatory concerns.  — Nivedita Balu, (c) 2021 Reuters
