We know that Mark Zuckerberg takes task every new year.
He does it to improve him as a person and be more knowledgeable.
This year also took some resolution and one of them is to understand cryptocurrency.

he quoted:

There are important counter-trends to this --like encryption and cryptocurrency -- that take power from centralized systems and put it back into people's hands. But they come with the risk of being harder to control. I'm interested to go deeper and study the positive and negative aspects of these technologies, and how best to use them in our services.

As we can see that he is currently monitoring the trends which are effecting his bussiness.
So, lets break it down into parts.

Real reasons why Mark is interested in cryptocurrency?

  1. People are addicted to facebook, whatsapp and other social networking, now if people are getting paid for doing that. It will be deadliest combination, which steemit has proved.
  2. One more thing to focus here is that, he is aware of the social networking is being hot topic in blockchain.
  3. Steemit has proved that social networking is possible on Blockchain, so it is threat to facebook. Now people are paid for every like, comment on Steemit , so peolple are spending less time on facebook.
  4. If we put in ourself in this situation then we are not spending time on facebook, but on steemit, reason is simple to earn some money. These things and trends are collected by huge facebook team, they have keen eye on it.
  5. Specially there are more upcoming platforms like EOS, which are more scaleable . EOS can support large scale application like facebook, as per their white paper.
  6. Steem and EOS teams are small and still they are able to achieve this, so facebook can achieve more and easy because of the huge team of highly experienced developers.
  7. One last thing we can see that, in past if there is any social network which is growing, mark has bought it. Like whatsapp, instagram and many others. Now if any platform which gives money for gives money for post like comment then it's going to be on radar of Mark.
    1. I think this can be very exciting for cryptocurrency community.
      It will take whole technology mainstream.
      But it is not clear he is gonna implement as a product or service in facebook.
      Right now we can't predict that however we can say that now people like him are focusing on crypto market.
