NYT DealBook: Facebook Stock Not So Different Than Bitcoin

The title of Rob Cox's post says it all, except perhaps for the money laundering angle.  Easier to launder money using Bitcoin or put it differently, I'm not aware of any federal criminal cases where prosecutors are alleging money laundering through the use of Facebook stock.

  2. What I find surprising is that some investors were surprised about WhatsApp's revenues. They charge next to nothing for a service that requires heavy infrastructure to maintain.
