Meta Platforms, Inc. Board of Directors - USPTO, Digital Assets and Moscow Exchange

[Gunnar Larson]

Ms. Chollett:

If we understand the situation correctly, this sort of thing is frowned
upon.

Over the next five years, the marketplace would have found out and had to
deal with the situation. That is what Bank.org is doing now.

How does Meta intended to resolve this?

Thank you,

Gunnar
