Use of blockchain and cryptocurrency payments in the freelancing sector... What are your thoughts about it? ::)

This case is very convenient and useful I think. Know several examples where people paid some services with crypto, p2p. Ethereum, bitcoin. I think this case is one of the best examples for people to understand the benefits of crypto.

Good as what it was intended for.

I think many freelancers already aware of the blockchain technology. I have met someone who's a freelancer and has a client that looks to invest to different blockchain start ups. This doesn't means that many are into it but I think that there's a high portion of freelancers that won't have problem with it.

It's good and totally worked to be implemented and even some companies in japan has been using bitcoin to pay its worker dude.

it looks like a lot of companies are trying to use crypto to pay its worker until today https://www.bmmagazine.co.uk/in-business/companies-are-paying-employees-in-bitcoin-and-theyre-loving-it/

Use of blockchain tech generally improves the overall efficiency, transparency of every business or service also it helps in automation and cutting costs so specifically of we talk about freelancing such platforms can really go to next level if they upgrade to blockchain because there are just too many benefits of blockchain tech like i just stated above.

It would be very useful for everyone, if the blockchain and cryptocurrency are applied in the freelance sector for payments, the only problem is that not everyone understands blockchain and cryptocurrency, so it will be very difficult to implement it.

There are already a few freelancing sites that pay in cryptocurrency but they aren't well known because they only pay in cryptocurrency and have no other payment option which can be challenging to people who doesn't understand crypto.

As long as the application of the blockchain system and the type of cryptocurrency are trusted, worthy, and valuable, it will be good enough for the freelancers. Moreover, the value of crypto may be increasing. But of course, be sure that you choose the right company with high trust to ensure that their payment system is really good and working.
And you must also ensure what coin you will get on the payment. Never accept the shitcoin or even low volume coins.

it's very good and efficient, and honestly I've experienced it paid for with cryptocurrency, and it's very profitable in my opinion and also saves time, money and energy, especially if online, you know, freelancing now also has a lot of online,
and for payment I think only cryptocurrency is the right answer.

Blockchain technology should be applied more in our daily lives because everything needs to be transparent in any field to create a more successful world in the future. I think Blockchain has created a new industry in our modern lives and thousands of jobs related to this technology have been on a very high rise in the last 2 years so I believe that in 10 years Blockchain next will be a promising destination for everyone

There are actually several projects who are into that. Why don't you check out LatiumX? It is the only platform I know for now that has a live platform for freelancers to get paid in their native token. Most of the jobs offered there are marketing stuffs but I've seen something like article writing. They also have an internal exchange in case you wish to convert LatX into btc/eth/ltc.

Freelancers works for different types of companies for short term which is why i like been one,getting paid in cryptocurrency is another way of creating more awareness for crypto in general,presently not everyone still understand how crypto works but im sure with time no single soul will be left out

I’m not just thinking about it, I have already repeatedly received payment in Bitcoins for my freelance work on translating texts, as well as writing PHP modules for websites.
I have experience in receiving money for such work on a plastic card, so getting paid with cryptocurrencies is much easier and faster.
Now I always, if possible, offer to pay for my services with Bitcoins.

This will make the freelancing community grow, not only bitcoin but with altcoins as well.
When a freelancer accepts crypto as a payment, it's very convenient for the employer because the transaction fee is cheap and the money will arrive faster.

Also, they don't have to worry about the certain regulation in a specific country as an employer can send coins directly from their wallet, and it's up to the receiver on how he will be able to convert it into fiat.

Education is very important, for both parties, if they are educated, they will find if a more effective payment system than the usual that they are using now.

very smart, in addition to helping the development of the Freelance sector, adoption of blockchain in freelance will also increase the development of blockchain in society, predictions about the world will be controlled by blockchain which will soon happen and can become real in the future. blockchain and freelance can go hand in hand and complement each other, the similarity between the two is the use of the internet as the main network and it is very useful for all.

I have the expertise as a logo designer who works freelance at the leading site, payment options with bitcoin are the most desirable because of the fast transaction process. Previously, I made a fiat withdrawal and it took two days to process the transaction.

I remember a year ago LatiumX bounty was held on BTT. This is a convenient form of payment for work. It has long been practiced on the Internet.At once I paid  the performer in ETH  for the work that he did. And if offer me payment in cryptocurrency, I'm agree.

There are already so much opportunities to work for crypto currencies. There are even freelancing exchanges that are offering jobs in exchange for crypto currencies, so I believe this will leave and develop in freelancer world.

It actually not a new idea. There are couple of cryptocurrency-based freelancing platforms that exist today. Other have come, and gone.
I was part of one in 2017 (I  believe). They probably have closed shop due to low patronage. 

Freelancers have been using blockchain for a long time already. Decentralization reduces commissions. Records of orders remain on the blockchain. The cost of the order is automatically deducted from the customer’s account, so the freelancer has a guarantee that he will get money for his work. You can write reviews only after the transaction is completed, which protects against bots.

The specifics of work and payment allows freelancers to take the project from anywhere in the world.

Blockchain in the freelancing community already happen for few years. This is really useful for freelance. Because this kind of job can be done anytime and anywhere. It gives then so much opportunity to earn their income.

I think freelancers can do it, because cryptocurrency can help them avoid paying taxes, because the money will not go to the card but will be on the Internet and the tax service will not be aware of this, therefore I think this is a breakthrough for freelancing on the part of payment .

It is a convenient way to get payment in BTC or ETH for freelancer if he is familiar how to exchange them into fiat money. You can use Localbitcoins or Localethereum to cash out.

As a freelancer, I really feel the great benefits of the blockchain and cryptocurrency. This opens up new jobs. More and more jobs, bigger salaries, fast and safe, and up to date. There are several websites that connect between freelancers and employers related to cryptocurrency and blockchain, one of which is https://ethlance.com/
There we can search and find a lot of jobs that match our passion and ability. In addition, bitcointalk this forum is also the main choice for getting a job, through a join bounty.
