Bitcoin on Uber

[kotajikikox]

i heard that about bitcoin CEO uber is believe the bitcoin as decentralized currency the CEO uber accepted the digital cryptocurrency to use bitcoin as payment if i'm not wrong CEO uber want to tie up bitcoin in the uber transfortation fair hike

If that will happen more people will be happy because most of us use the service of uber and the access will be convenient. Just one click away the bitcoin will be transfer to uber as a fare payment.

I think it's a good news. It will be more convenient than paying a fiat money. I think it will be good transaction between the uber and clients/customers. It will be cheaper than the regular transactions and by that we can easily promote bitcoin and uber as well and it can help the market bigger and richer.

Great news indeed. By 2020 many experts expect bitcoin and maybe some crypto to become mainstream and will be utilized. Innovation is needed and blockchain will be one of its instruments.

I have missed this news. It sounds really great. Uber is very big company and the fact that they have integrated with btc is brilliant for our community.

Meanwhile, bitcoin just got integrated with Uber for tipping drivers. Isn't that a good news?

Is this true? We have uber in my country but i havent heard aboit it first. Thats awesome and im so looking forward to have that in my country. Seriously, i did not try it yet if they are having it here in my town. Im excited about the news though.

haha, there is no doubt that it's a good news. But I don't think that people will use BTC to pay for Uber. 1 BTC = $5800 now and it continues go up in the future. People are treating it as a kind of asset rather than a means of payment.

It is a good news i find uber too costly sometimes especially during peak hours if uber can provide some sort od discout or any credit for deposits made using bitcoin I'm done for it , this will help company recover from huge losses and not get bankrupt

Great news! I'm dreaming to see Bitcoin as payment option for Uber as well

Same here! and imagine if even fast food chains and super markets accepts bitcoins too then it would be great for bitcoin users. This step that UBER made will surely increase the likeliness of bitcoins as a mode of payment for other future services and I hope it will lead to a world wide acceptance of cryptocurrencies.

wow I appreciate with some companies that participate develop bitcoin into payment in transactions, some companies began to regard bitcoin as a modern payment. I'm sure bitcoin can compete like paypal and other way payment.I hope  bitcoin payment can be realized in every country because this is a secure and easy way of payment. we do not need to carry a wallet, we just need a smartphone for way of payment

[Jgatsby]

Really nice for the companies adopting to BTC, I really like the idea of BTC on uber, so excited to try this out. We all know how big UBER company is, I'm sure this will influence and attract other companies to try this BTC as well, it's a great start.

As I know Uber has accepted Bitcoin for payment but only in countries Bitcoin legalized. I'm very happy to hear that it's a big move of Bitcoin for now. I think in the near future Bitcoin will be legalized in almost countries in the world and Bitcoin can be used to pay bill, purchase goods and everything else soon. In my country, the first restaurant accept Bitcoin started last month and I hope it'll be more restaurant and shop that accept Bitcoin available in here

Tipping in bitcoins is really a very smart decision taken by Uber. That way driver don't have to fear of Bitcoin's high or low price as it is a tip.

[vatanen]

Tips on bitcoin recieved by the drivers of uber may give them a chance to hold a single bitcoin for their future investment. Uber drivers are now lucky because they will recieve bitcoin in tip from their passengers. It's a good move by uber.

...maybe I'll start driving for Uber.  No, can't.  My car is too old because I put all my extra money in Bitcoin.  If I sell 3 bitcoin and buy a car, do you think I can recoup that 3 bitcoin in tips?

[Naoko]

cool idea...being a taxi driver has become more pleasant,I think...if bitcoin will be so implanted in different spheres of life - then more people will trust it

[harbin55]

If the uber compaby will accept bitcoins as a mode of payment fir me that would be a great idea. Because it is less hassle for us to pay for the fare to the uber drivers.

[smith136]

A passenger that will give a tip to uber driver using bitcoin is very generous tbh, I think there will only few people will do these as spending bitcoin for such things will be a waste of income 

[mindfly09]

That's a good news since Uber in the Philippines is very popular. Actually it is more popular than the traditional taxi. If they are going to accept bitcoin, much better. But the transaction fee plus the rate of meter, isn't that a bit expensive? Anyway, this is a good help for bitcoin because this will promote bitcoin more. And hopefully bitcoin will be a part of people for their everyday lives. Good job Uber.

That's true that in the Philippines its popular to ride in Uber. Especially during rush hour its fast no hazard. Its a great news to the people in the Philippines if they accept bitcoin, because most of people already earn and invest in bitcoin, and this can be a good opportunity and good chance. It cant difficult when to pay for the Uber because there is an internet connection. Its good idea of Uber and it will be success. We hoping that bitcoin has become more popular through it.

I think the idea is good. Its important to start circulating bitcoin amongst a wider rage of people around the world to promote the investment of the currency. This will also distribute wealth better over the world
