So this kinda came about from seeing a tiktok last night of a restaurant in birmingham uk that had put up signs in the window where they accepted payment in four different crypto currencies (dash, litecoin, eth and i forget the other) but if you ever wanted to know what was a good coin to hodl that’s a fairly good list right there! (be kinda great to get BSV added!)
I’ve already made the change away from twitter to twetch, centralised to decentralized, also any time i tweet, or reply, i have to pay something for that to happen, it’s quite cheap but it’s always in the back of my mind that my data is mine and i can track those interactions and payments.
I just love the idea of our digital lives/time incentivised for interaction with a project that’s backed by a blockchain. Our involvement, just like in real life with our day to day jobs has a price to it, that’s based often on experience and skillset — with blockchain often that entry point is much lower to start.
For many, that can be the difference between eating today or not.
Which is partly why i wrote/posted this video. As i’m on the edge of having to take some of my recent gains on things i try and find alternatives so i don’t have to eat into those investments. It’s always hard to eat hand to mouth and still partake in these economies - sure i could sell and even sell my recent NFT but then that’s not thinking long term, i’m trying to support the next wave of what i believe to be a more fairer economy — the digital crypto currency economy.
you only have to take a look at defi to see how disruptive that is to the way you can get a loan these days when the banks won’t even touch you. If you held now you don’t need to spend any of that crypto you can borrow against it, holding longer term. Not having to swap your original investment for fiat is always good!
So yeah, i was thinking, what else, what other day to day platforms that i use could be changed, where are the common pain points for a digital worker these days on centralised platforms, from payment times to the cut they take, those things could be made better by instant payouts and operating on a blockchain as part of a “digital cv” of the work you have done previously — a literal proof of work, combine that with a decentralised testimonials element and you could really just disrupt work/jobs and cv’s in a blink of an eye.
I’d love to see BSV disrupt fiverr, instead of algo decided “payout” windows (you have to get to top rated for instance to get paid out in seven days, unlike me, in level two, which took me a long time and takes two weeks! a lot of stuff happens in two weeks in crypto!)
I’d love to see BSV disrupt upwork, they take like 20% cut of your income.
I’ve love to see BSV disrupt gumroad (well we kinda have canonic.xyz for that i guess) but still, with gumroad it’s a week for a payout, i want that instantly after sign off from the client, i want to be able to do stuff with those funds, some kinda smart contract to split anything i send to a wallet and divvy that up to investments and tax maybe — smart, automated stuff for digital workers is a massive area if tapped.
Let’s not wait for the “general public” to arrive, build things that happen fast and cheaper and people will come over in droves. you just need the audience of businesses who are already hiring to see that it makes happier digital workers and everyone wins.
I’ve love to see BSV and the speed of sending funds and low cost bolted into maybe something like fareshare style charity setups. fareshare has relationships with super markets to take the stuff they can’t put on their shelves in their stores and brings it to a centralised location for distribution to charity projects that have a food kitchen style space —- you have a suit of local cooks who take the food and make something nice with it, socialising and eating healthy.
If you had a crypto component for that, where you could take payments super fast with BSV, set up some kind of wallet setup for everyone involved so that the funds went towards the provisions of the next fortnightly food drop AND made you money for being part off and supporting the local community projects — opening them up maybe for the first time to crypto that could be interesting, everything public, easily managed, a nice public ledger circle economy.
With bitcoin SV it actually get’s this value out there and moving around, value into the system, showing how it can be used instead of just pouring more ill managed fiat funds into things, they really dislike the notion of tracking all these things end to end, it exposes the flaws and bottlenecks i guess.
My point is, i’d love it if my contributions into these ecosystems could be so disruptive that you could live your whole meat sack life from the digital automation of your virtual assets — to be able to spend a bit of my digital stake in a local food bank, to be able to be paid instantly after i’ve done the work and then invest in some kind of compounding bot for two weeks.
I’d be better off in life and actually might be able to get ahead instead of dipping into funds early, it’s almost like investing in your future you is off limits for people who don’t have the ability to pull themselves up out from their upbringing.
I dunno, just my two cents today :)
