Bribery is the status quo in many countries and I believe it’s a skill Westerners should at least attempt to understand for the future If you are in a situation (with a cop or otherwise) where you feel like a bribe might smooth things over, start the conversation by asking “Is there something I can do to resolve this?” and negotiate from there. Cash preferred for now but once Coinbase gets “the next billion” onchain I am confident USDC will also be accepted

Do you think a country where the rich think Uber With Guns is necessary will be immune to all the other crap that goes on in countries where Uber With Guns is necessary? I don’t

Nah, the onchain bit will act as a brake It’s why you ask for a receipt when a cop or soldier tries to shake you down in eg Africa (North or SSA) They don’t want the paper trail

If USDC buys you, you're "cheap".

my first boss in sales goes to me "do you believe in bribery" and i was unsure if she was asking about my ethics but i just panicked and said "yes" and then she gave me a brand new betsey johnson dress (like $400 USD at the time) for picking up an extra shift. bribery works. 🤷♀️

I was traveling with a partner in an eastern European country a few years back. My partner was on a bus one day and bought the wrong ticket and the ticket agent tried to give her a 500 euro fine and threatened her with jail. She said I don't have it and held her ground and the ticket agent shrugged and left. Similarly we were driving and stopped on the side of the road to change drivers and a police officer pulled up behind us and tried to give us a 500 euro fine for illegal parking. We said we didn't have it and eventually he went on his way as well...
