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.

It's good since most Uber users are from Philippines, they'll know more about bitcoin by asking Uber customer support of the taxi drivers who knows bitcoin. I hope many people will know more about this bitcoin thing right now.

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.
I think that's a great idea for everyone especially in  the filipinos out there in the Philippines. We all know that  uber is very popular in the country of Philippines and also it has a lots of consumers depending on transportation like this.  Some are Filipino users here are using transportation like uber and it is very easy now because they accepting bitcoin.  I don't have an idea if this is true but i hope it will accept that.

correct me if i'm wrong but from what i understand on that tweet. bitcoin is only available on tipping drivers via app. this is great for awareness and circulation but people who tip

cheap amounts will not be able to use bitcoin because dust payments are highly discouraged as most likely you will be paying a higher miner fee than the actual amount although

its great with decent amounts.

I can't really see the popularity of bitcoin here in the Philippines I have been with many friends that doesn't even have an idea of what is bitcoin, and I really think that there will be uber drivers that haven't even have a knowledge on what bitcoin is so I think it will only be applicable in a small percentage here in the Philippines that is my opinion with this matter.

That's great news actually, but as I read those replies. If my observation is clear that by tipping the driver we can used bitcoin but in reality it will be converted by uber to local currency to distribute to drivers. Uber's has got a great mind at marketing strategies and they might have plans in bitcoin for the accumulated tips.

I won't be surprised at one day they will make it available for paying there services not just for tipping. And it would be huge move, Is uber be one big player someday in crypto currency, would love to find out soon.

Well that's a good news indeed since Uber can operate even the passenger has no cash but instead with credit or debit card. So I think it's a good transformation because BTC is not only for remittances and payments but also as servicing tips and a lot more.

certain. This is very good news for uber users, my own person is very happy if bitcoin works with uber. This is very profitable. I believe with the circulation of this news bitcoin will soar and start getting the attention of some people.
I have one doubt how the uber will collect Bitcoins for our trip, whey because the Bitcoin price is never stable at one rate. It keeps on varying in the high margin. Sometimes when we start our trip, the price is stable, but suddenly it will come down or increased means how it will profit for Uber and user. But this is good advertisement or bitcoins.

Yeah that it's good news, but suddenly Uber here in the Philippines is suspended. So maybe we cannot use bitcoin for the meantime with Uber. Maybe it is more fun if it is also allow with Grab.

That's  a great Idea. It's make our everyday life more easy and comfortable.
Not only Uber, there are many companies that now accept Bitcoins as a payment. No doubt, it is a great help for BTC holders. Steam, Tesla, Subway, Stripe, WebJet, Whole Foods, Zappos, Zynga, Microsoft, Amazon, Wikipedia, Overstock, Paypal/Ebay and many others. This also means Bitcoins is the currency of future.

Reallly?
Amazon? Paypal?
Where do you poeple get your fake news so early in the morning?

Oh, and just a tip. Wikipedia is not a company and it is not accepting payments as they don't sale stuff. They accept donations.

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.

How amazing if this will be followed, bitcoin to be tipped to the driver, but sadly that uber as of now is banned in some country, once I visited my friend I cannot use uber there, I was expecting that I can use bitcoin for them to have bitcoin from me.
But honestly, some did not know what bitcoin is, becaus I asked some.drivers. Then I just use their fiat money for my fare which is fair enough for our both ends.
It is nice of you to tip your BTCs to driver however I will not cover an extra mile.
I will just pay the dues. :p
Why have the blocked Uber in some countries? That's ridiculous! But you should be happy if this facility is available in your own country. Drivers are not really into BTCs, they are not tech guys’ rather simple people, but those who work under the company, must have some idea, at least in developed countries.

That's a great news for us Filipinos. Since the uber is most common in Philippines, it is very convenient now to travel anywhere you want with bitcoin but how it is works?

Its an amazing place to start to spread bitcoin word ahead, besides finaly we start to be able to use our coins into our daily needs, I do see Uber as something that is good to all people an improvement of old taxi system. Sooner we will be able to pay our supermarket purchases directly with bitcoin without need a debit card.
