Yes, it is a good news for the bitcoins as it will help to grow the community. I am sure that, one day more service providers will start accepting the bitcoins as the mode of transaction. Uber has their presence in all over the world, this step will help to spread the information & awareness regarding bitcoins. Its a win win situation for the bitcoin community.

They are just one amongst million investors so it needs lot of time and patience for bitcoin community to celebrate in real. Uber has made a good move no doubt about it but I'm concern about other big people like, Walmart, American mall, Aldi and etc kind of food and supply chain. They should be the one who should make implementing of bitcoin payment system. They can bring the revolution because they have the capability. Anyway hands up for the uber too as they have taken the initiative at least.

It is. Having more ways and means of payment is good because Uber users will be able to pay in the most convenient way they want. In fact, maybe taxis can also apply this in order to have more passengers. However, in my country, Uber was banned because of some legal issues. The people are still hoping that it will come back. But for the mean time, many are relying on Grab which is the same concept with Uber. What is good now is that it is being worked out by Uber in our country to still come back and continue to serve

it can't be done bitcoin for uber. Uber should apply for regulatory purpose as payment system for the taxes.

Of course it can be done, if the big executives in charge of uber want it to happen it will happen they will just need to declare all the bitcoin they got from their operations and then pay taxes on that if they cash out immediately or pay taxes later if they decide to hold.

I don't think it's a good idea right now, fees on bitcoin are too high now especially for tipping eg. $5 tip will cost $2-5 of transaction fees. I would suggest that bitcoin developer solve the scaling problem and the increase of block size (which means more transactions per block rather and possible lower fees) then bitcoin would be the perfect choice for tipping taxis and bartender Grin

Wow,isn't it great? Bitcoin used for tipping drivers who work for Uber! Bitcoin is going to get popular amongst drivers and common people who use Uber regularly. But then how much will a person tip? 0.005 btc/20 $ for any trip,more than that or less? Its great that Big companies like Uber will now be involved in bitcoin and more companies will follow them,lets see what happens in the coming years.

That's a good news since Uber in the Philippines is very popular. Actually it is more popular than the traditional taxi. If they are going to accept bitcoin, much better. But the transaction fee plus the rate of meter, isn't that a bit expensive? Anyway, this is a good help for bitcoin because this will promote bitcoin more. And hopefully bitcoin will be a part of people for their everyday lives. Good job Uber.

Well, I agree that its a good news and its quite convinient to people who use uber. In addition to that, if they bitcoin as a payment they can pay their bills easily and it will help those driver who really want to gain income. I also agree that it will help to promote bitcoin. Lastly, I hope many transport vehicle will accept bitcoin in the future.

Yes i would strongly agree and support that if that would happen cause it would be more convenient and if that will happen and it will success i think some of the online business can accept bitcoin too for some transactions. Hope it will be.

Platform for Investing in Cryptocurrency and ICOs

Why not? I mean this is a good idea to use bitcoins in transactions with uber. It will surely make the ride faster and easier. Paying by bitcoins is one big efficiency to both the consumer and the business person involved in this kind of setup. It is very good to have this kind of innovation since bitcoin is now expanding it’s capability to control other exchange currencies.

it's good news, but a little disappointing for those who wanted more (for example, bitcoin being used directly to pay for rides, even if indirectly through a platforms exchanging BTC to USD directly like BitPay),

Not a bad thing at all for it to be added to the tipping system though, and if the overall use is high, I'm sure Uber would consider adding it completely to the platform.

I really agree if uber has received bitcoin as its payment tool. Hopefully other merchan can also receive bitcoin. Maybe if many public services and merchants use bitcoin, bitcoin prices will skyrocket again. As more and more people know and hold bitcoin. I must be prepared to buy bitcoin Wink

One of a kind

Indeed, this is a great thing for Bitcoin users who will benefit on this a lot since this will ease their transportation experience even more using UBER. But I guess this will be implemented not as soon as other countries compare to ours here in the Philippines because currently UBER is having a problem with taking seriously the policies here in the Philippines, just saying. But all in all, this is a great step towards keeping up with the digital world we have right now.

this is brand new idea, that really good sir. so you just need to send the bitcoin and uber will distribute itself.
so we can use bitcoin also tipping the driver, and make use of bitcoin more in the community. helping much more people

Yes it will facilitate us a lot. We will not have any worries to pay them. It will not only facilitate us but also the uber. Because we will be able to pay by sitting in home. But if we don’t pay there would be a way through which uber will be able to cut off the payment by themselves from the users account. And not only this the drivers will also be facilitated and other workers also that they will get paid safely.

It would be much better if ibwr uses it's own coin. Why is Bitcoin when you can have your entire system with rewards included on their own coin. Those that do not use Uber can buy coins as an investment so it will be like spending shares. That's how altcoins remind me. They remind me of shares or assets. It works well and it's Intelligent and I can see this happening in all kinds of sectors bringing in all kinds of money from all over which creates and generates profit for people so we don't have to work a job.

That's great news especially in Asia because I see a lot of people using Uber these days. And it gives them the opportunity to get to know bitcoin too and what it could do for them and their family.

Uber is very rapidly growing in the Asian region. Nowadays almost every city has uber service. So this is a new innovation, making transport payments with bitcoin a great start. The use of uber in daily tempo can certainly raise the prestige of bitcoin in all sectors.
