hi,
i have a noob question!
how the nooby user who don't know what's cryptocurrency. how can he is getting WIC to pay connection?
That's the job of WIC, to make the coin popular.
anasso has a point I think... I know I'm a newbie here but not too new to crypto world. I've invested a great deal in stage 1 and I believe in this project highly, but as to the WiFi sharing. As anasso stated, basically if a user has no wic or doesnt know about crypto they wouldnt be able to get the shared wifi. How would they be able to add WiC to their account or whatever, is their only way is to buy it on livecoin?
Hey, we have thought about this and understand that the majority of the people either do not know about crypto or do not want to get involved with it for various reasons. To solve this issue we will be taking several steps to make WiC purchases easy for the average user. Some of the major ones are as below (sourced from the whitepaper):
WiC/Local currency exchange – Another planned feature, aimed at making the end user experience smooth and hassle free is enabling the ability to buy WiC directly from the app using traditional payment methods like debit/credit cards and net banking. The main purpose of this is to make it easy for those users who do not want to get involved with crypto currencies in any way and just want access to cheap and reliable WiFi.
Another thing we intend to do is have
WiC reloadable cards available at gas stations and retail convenience stores, so that people even without the knowledge of crypto currencies will be able to use our app without issues. How this will work is similar to how reloadable gift cards work. Users will have the option to use their local currency at local outlets that will give them pre-loaded unscratched WiC cards with private keys that can be used to load the purchased balance in to the CryptoWi app. This way we eliminate the need for the end user to know how crypto currencies work and make WiFi sharing easy and hassle free.
