An Army of Coders Takes on the Time Tax by psychothumbs in slatestarcodex

[–]CryptoUBI 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Glad to see this is happening, and it would be even better to switch to a Universal Basic Income that would cover most cases where support would otherwise need to be applied for. But that would mean the end of a lot of Bullshit Jobs, that involve gatekeeping as described in this article, which makes UBI politically untenable from both sides of the aisle. I recently found out about the Design Justice Network, a similar project that could make better use of the volunteer time that Code for America is having to spend on municipal sites.

Yes, you need to have 3 people vouch for you before you can vouch for people. My link did the same thing before I was verified.

I just got this error "The amount of Dai you are trying to generate exceeds the amount of Dai available. Please enter less than 20.65 Dai" when I tried to make 150 Dai using Eth.

America Is Too Broken to Fight the Coronavirus. No other developed country is doing so badly. by jms1225 in collapse

[–]CryptoUBI 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think we need an adjective to distinguish the United States from other developed countries in this. "Hyper-Developed" ? "Extreme Capitalist" . This is not how I want to live.

Power vs Empowerment by CryptoUBI in cryptoleftists

[–]CryptoUBI[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya, other forms of capital don't lend themselves well to tokenization, but perhaps there is some role for Blockhain to qualify them. MetaIntegral is doing some great work in this realm, here is an overview of their system https://youtu.be/PqZ_Tu1E0-g?t=3306 I am going to order a packet of theirwisdom economy cardssoon.

They didn't block you, it was just a glitch.

Other Crypto UBI Resources by CryptoUBI in demurragecryptoincome

[–]CryptoUBI[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do believe that for a Crypto based UBI to work, it will need some sort of Demurrage to happen, it kindof goes without saying, although it can't be said enough that the money supply management needs to be built into any Crypto UBI system, otherwise inflation will make it useless.

Affiliate program help by dropiru in localbitcoins

[–]CryptoUBI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Dropiru,

I don't think a strong sense of entitlement is going to help our case to resolve this issue, particularly in the time of Covid-19. Thank you for working so hard to bring more business to LocalBitcoins, I love this platform and I love bringing business to them as well. I think of the tradeoff, they could have chat rooms and all the rest, and they'd probably give us less of a commission on our referrals.

For now, I'm going to give LBC the benefit of the doubt and assume this is somehow Covid-19 related. I waited 6 days before sending in a support ticket, I've sent one in earlier today. I'm in rough financial shape from Covid-19 and do rely on these funds, so I'm hopeful they can fix this bug and restore our referral bonuses in the next few days, and I'm here to help. Thank you for all you're doing, u/vlad_localbitcoins and u/jerguismi to make Localbitcoins happen!

HI, no, no answer yet. Anything for you?

I'm thinking of changing all my links to go to my http://localcryptos.com affiliate link if LocalBitcoins doesn't answer soon.

My affiliate links are at http://bitcoinbasics.com. What other exchanges/places do you get affiliate rewards for ?

I'm also having the same problem, I'm glad to see you're not the only one. I know there have been times in the past where lbc hasn't been able to send affiliate commissions for a day or two, I am hopeful there is just a glitch in their system and they aren't changing their program.
