I think it would be great if you could pay your Taxi-drive with Bitcoin! U agree with me?
Wow, it’s just a quite great idea. It’s really convenient with all the bitcoin user if they have opportunity to pay for taxi by bitcoin. Although I know it’s not easy for any of us to do this plan because you both know that most of countries use fiat currency for paying, but you can take it as an extra service for some who uses bitcoin. These day,bitcoin is indeed going more viral, it’s a chance for you to get benefits if you do proactively as soon as possible. I hope that this service will cary out soon.

Definitely. I think the first ones who will integrate bitcoins to their payment system are taxis companies like Uber and Grab. These are great companies who has a lot of tech-leverage specially when you book a taxi on Uber or Grab. I guess having bitcoins pay for your transportation would be great.

I don't know what is your reason why paying taxi driver with Bitcoins was great, maybe you just like it because it is way too far from traditional payment system. This would be good if all of the people knows about Bitcoin and know how to use it but from now I don't think that it should be applied. I think it can be an option and not mandatory to pay using Bitcoins since not all people are familiar with cryptos.

previously there is ico with a taxi project, but I see the ico less successful, though I think it's a good idea. because the current taxi online in my country is growing, so it would be more fun if I could pay with bitcoin or cryptocurrencies. of course, I agree if bitcoin can use for paying taxi online, because every day I almost needed a taxi online for going anywhere.

Yeah I think it is also a good idea but all of the taxi drivers are required to have a bitcoin wallet. What if the taxi driver is already a senior citizen? I don't think he can be able to operate that since some of the senior citizens are not really familiar or should I say they are not likely using gadgets.

Brilliant idea, how I wish bitcoin could be uses to pay for taxi. It will be easier with bitcoin pay card or ATM. All depends on the acceptance of bitcoin in such country .

Yes, this is very reasonable if the developing countries have separate plans for the Bitcoins, in my country now take a taxi just pay through the virtual card and do not need to pay cash, but to do things This is not possible because many people do not have a ticket to pay

It would be very funny, because the commissions for transactions in Bitcoin are big. The commission could be more for the amount of payment.

The transaction fee of bitcoin in small payments will make it expensive. I think it is better if there is a crypto token for this kind of service.I think it would be good to use Bitcoin not only for payments in a taxi but also in shops and restaurants.

That is cool. Having wifi won't cost so much since the driver does many trips a day and then there is plenty time for the transaction to go through.I think Swegit has increased confirmation time, but we need it to be instant confirmation for most of the business including this taxi cab one.

I think this could be if, the driver have also any kind of Bitcoin wallet to transfer their payment.Otherwise it might happen that the transaction is not processed at all and the coins go back to the original wallet.
Waiting with the passenger in the car till that has happened is somehow not an option.

I like taxi accepted bitcoin, i think this is a good and make me will always pay with bitcoin if I use taxi service.at the very least, you can use a bitcoin/eth denominated debit card. and I wont even address the various services in the US that allow you to buy public transportation credits in select markets.

 These kind of transactions are better off with plain cold cash or just using a debit card with no additional charges. No need to complicate things as simple as this. It is not good to use bitcoin as a money to buy products or services that we want in our community. Yes the bitcoin price will rise up because of this demand but it can cause a high transaction fees that we may encounter when these are become officially introduce to all services in our community.

It is now easily possible as we are using online taxi booking service apps in our mobile phones and we can easily pay them in bitcoins if they start accepting it.The core developers need to fix the scaling issues first before we even need to look at global adoption ideas like yours. We, the people have so many ideas on how we can apply bitcoin globally, but these great ideas are slowly getting more and more impossible by the minute. Bitcoin is simply just storage value as of now.

How about the transaction fees plus it will mean your driver has to wait for a while to receive payments. I dont think it is feasible at the moment. Yes, in the future, but no at the moment.

Do you want to mention project TIM?
Let's read 1 of their plan, which is for taxi:

"BLOCKCHAIN TAXI
Efficient taxi services by P2P network in an area. No trans-continent network hopping, also data privacy and local support for security on-demand.
It is a p2p taxi service as a hyperlocal dapp on TIM platform. The user's app and driver's app search for desirable nodes in nearby location. The booking is done by a handshake smart-contract function of the hyperlocal Dapp. The ride route and distance is managed by map api functions like Google Maps and other such services depending on the region. The app calculates the cost of ride using the telemetry data from the app itself. Passengers can pay for the ride in TIMs or other modes using an integrated payment solution. Also the drivers can override to take cash for the payment.

By eliminating middlemen, users and drivers gain better control, availability, potential to improve their lives and ability to ask as well as offer better services."

This will definitely depend on the taxi driver Whether he will accept Bitcoin or not. If you earn $10, then if you have to pay $3-$4  then why would he accept Bitcoin?

Yes it would be a very good news to bitcoin users, but how about those who are not? I think we are not yet ready for large-term acceptance of the currency like in mode of payment in transportation. People can adopt bitcoin accepting taxis but they will still have to accompany it with fiat system because bitcoin will only limit their customers.
Yes, this is true. Transportation is a large scale business, and cabs will be limited to those who uses bitcoin. If they incorporate the bitcoin system of payment to fiat system they would just be normal taxis but still will be able to attract more customers, namely bitcoin users. This is a great idea but we have to take it step by step because progress is achieved in that way.

Get yourself onboard with a crypto debit card it is the simple way to be able to utilise your crypto for simple every day uses. There are no transfer fees when you make a transaction the vendor receives the equivalent amount in local FIAT. Was travelling last week and bought a new Samsung phone in Hong Kong on my card.
