I just ordered the Wirex card and hope to get it soon. The idea is to receive crypto (Bitcoin) by doing stuff that I would be doing anyway.
What other ways do you know to receive / earn Bitcoin for everyday stuff outside of the crypto world that could bring Bitcoin and other crypto directly to users for them to spend?
I know I'll get a lot of backlash but I think that FaceBook's Libra Project is pegged to take mass adoption by storm. FaceBook and it's partners, Occulus Rift/ Instagram/ WhatsApp make Facebook the largest social media platform in the world. If congress were to give Mark Zuckerberg the green light to go ahead with the launch of Libra platform, the cryptocurrency sector as we know it could rapidly change.
All of the sudden the world over would be educated about cryptocurrency thanks to the Libra platform. Eventual those Libra users will trickle down into other crypto related projects and communities, so on and so forth. The market would naturally get a boost in growth. Bitcointalk would be flooded with new users like never before. Everyone will want in as the forum experiences a booming surge in traffic. If you thought people were complaining about bounty standards and low ball pay as of now, wait until there aren't any left to complain about

, you'll be asking where did all the airdrops & Bounties go?
Great for seeing the potentials that Facebook Libra is going to bring to the crypto hemisphere but the concern to most people really is the control. For me, I won't have any concern should it be maybe bitcoin or eth and other decentralised coin that the support is actually going towards and not about the indirect impact that Libra will have. Facebook and its products can conveniently boost of information about large percentage of the population that cuts across race, countries and continents adding crypto currency to add, would be too much power for one corporate organisation which if there is no proper oversight could be abused to the detriment of the larger society.
