Uber’s New CEO Is a Bitcoin Fan

[ivrynx]

this is great news, hopefully we can pay bitcoins, whenever we ride uber and not just give bitcoin as a tip. no wonder uber has the guts to pay its case in my country, in case you haven't heard uber had some trouble here in the philippines and they had paid a fine of almost 200 million pesos, if the new ceo has a lot of bitcoins in his hands or if uber itself is being backed up the their bitcoins, no wonder their business easily fluorished and they are helping a lit of people to earn extra or to have a career with uber. i think the new ceo will innovate more and provide jobs to many, if they accept bitcoin as payment, it is safe to say that they will also pay their drivers with bitcoin, and hopefully by that time, i'm an uber driver and will definitely accept bitcoin as payment.

I do not know if it was grab or uber that I saw a lady paying bitcoin in New York.  She paid her fare at that taxi with bitcoin through a third party.  If that is the case then perhaps there is a possibility that bitcoin will be used as payment for a ride.  But I will not use my bitcoin for this one.

Being a fan doesn't means that the CEO of uber will just implement an ICO in just one snap.  It may happen but some of the posters here post without thinking logically. For me, in my humble opinionUBER's  CEO might  create a coin for uber services but it will not happen anytime soon.

this is good news, uber is one of the major transportation companies in the world. uber is everywhere around the world. in my country uber is also exists. hopefully uber soon accepted payment via bitcoin

I think that's a good thing. just imagine if UBER now uses bitcoin. I think it will be more practical and efficient. and with that will more and more people will know about bitcoin.

Freedom from countries,central and regular banks.and all fascist organisations.this is actually good news,in hopping user will be worldwide soon like bitcoin.this would definitely be interesting for uber , well see how this plays out , time will tell.

CEO takes all the major decisions for the company. Hence, Uber CEO's interest in Bitcoin will definitely bring a positive change and Uber might start accepting Bitcoin as a payment soon. This would be a huge step in creating awareness about Bitcoin as Uber is an international company and if it starts accepting Bitcoin, awareness will automatically increase as Uber will work as an advertising vehicle and then in turn demand will increase.

good news about bitcoin, the ceo of the popular transportation uber are like to adopt the bitcoin, the proof bitcoin is now a famous and continue the popularization in the cryptoworld as decentralzed currency, another achievement of bitcoin if the uber accept as fare fee of the passenger.

Well that's a good news why? If the CEO implemented that bitcoin will accept on uber it will more convienient to some users who bitcoin but on the other hand, it could cause delays because of waiting for minutes or sometimes hours just confirm a transaction.

I am yet not sure  how you are so sure that the lady was paying in bitcoin  bitcoin can be used as a mode of payment if they start accepting it ,other than that it is not at all possible and from what i understand they have not taken any steps to start accepting bitcoin at this moment,the current CEO does like bitcoin does not mean that he will start accepting it for the rides.

We receive several news saying Uber will accept bitcoin, but this is not a simple event that CEO can decide instantly. The legal situation of Uber is being debated in some countries. And the legal aspect of accepting bitcoin will cause some proflems for Uber in those countries.

[smartbitcoininvestor]

This would be huge!

Companies like Uber and Amazon adopting Bitcoin would completely change the landscape of crypto. If Uber accepted Bitcoin just imagine the kind of taxi driver to passenger gossip that would spread like wildfire. The price of Bitcoin would skyrocket even more.

Wow, I think I am underestimating Bitcoin moreso than I thought. There are just so many opportunities for adoption increases & huge price jumps.

This is a good publicity free of charge just like bill gates and many more tech superstars, these personalities have excellent credibility which will reciprocates with products or services that they are endorsing, in this case bitcoin.

[Polonium]

First this is a good publicity since he along with bill gates and other prominent tech personalities have a very good credentials which build up bitcoin, Secondly, as the new  CEO of uber, bitcoin may actually be use as a new method of payment.
