I've never really seen Bitcoin freelancing as separate from freelancing.
This. As simple as possible!
Just because there is a new payment method it doesn't mean there will be people asking for services
It won't happen with the freelance, with groceries, with the car industry, the market was already oversaturated with payment options and what is more important with people willing to do jobs!
Yeah, and I think that's where the disappointment from people comes. They thought Bitcoin was going to open up new possibilities, new work, and yes, in theory, I suppose in terms of industry, there is more work these days, but more compliance roles needed for crypto-related business, more engineering jobs for coders and what not, but it's not exactly the way people thought it would be.
I'm a freelancer, and I accept Bitcoin.
Bitcoin didn't make me a freelancer.
And totally agree on all the other things. Bitcoin's not a magic disrupting tool. And even if it were, if people aren't really using it the way it was meant to be, then we'll not see things happen faster.
