Took a 20 minute Uber today, cost me $19.89. Driver took home a little over $5. 

Uber's take is 75% - that seems surprisingly high. I would have expected a split closer to 50-50.

i know it’s an old idea but hoping p2p sharing networks can actually take off using farcaster identity for social proof

uber, couch surfing, local buy/sell marketplaces, etc

i think that's a really hard business to pull off p2p. 

uber is in the business of selling trust. i know that i'll have a decent experience, wont get ripped off, will arrive safely etc.

Why is that hard? It’s just a map with peoples locations and then attached credentials. You messaged them and say I need a ride here.
