Consumer Crypto

the payment use case is extremely overhyped in crypto

most consumers prefer centralized payment options and the benefits of centralization (fraud protection, security, etc) will probably always outweigh anything decentralized options bring to the table

we have to find use cases where decentralization is actually an advantage

Payments in crypto are extremely underhyped 

Most consumers globally have literally no access to the majority of centralized payment options and crypto provides access in a pretty huge way - it's literally a lifesaver

Building out the Oasis Onchain ecosystem (www.oasisonchain.xyz) 🏝️

yes for people with no other options giving them the ability to hold and transfer funds electronically is massive

but that doesn't change that when given options humans want the stability and reliability of centralized payment processors (and that's ok)

pics or it didn't happen

fair enough, I can def see that angle to the conversation 

btw nice to meet you on here! my friend @alec.eth was telling me about Oasis the other day and how he thought it was aligned with what we're doing at /poidh 

people in the global south have been some of our top early users and I think we're offering a truly innovative way for them to get paid for tasks, would love to chat more if you're interested

Agreed there, and for now that probably won't change

But I also do think there's so many people without access to those options that it almost doesn't matter lmao (tbh personally I think global finance is so cooked that centralized payments will ~never properly reach those without options)
