Community Requests
- Request for a new community, named "Cryptolancing", for freelance (or otherwise) works that pay or can pay in crypto-currencies
Hey there. As the title said, I'd like to start a community for crypto jobs.
Centralized services make it very, very hard for many, many people to actually find jobs or get paid in a reliable manner.
I know of a few artists that got banned with all of their credit in their accounts on Fiverr, PayPal, and UpWork, because those services didn't approve of their work for their own reasons (eg. Many artists that take gore commissions or like to draw art with heavier/dark themes, get banned after some time on whatever service that they use, and the service will then refuse to work it out with them or even give them ANY kind of answer after that. It's fucked up to have to depend on those services' approval of your job and what you do when you depend on the money that you earn that way for your life necessities).
I know that the crypto landscape doesn't carry a good name, but it's the onlyway for some people to work without fear of losing everything in an instant because of the TOS of centralized banking and finance services.
I don't know if that's convincing enough or not, but if it isn't, some very smart and capable people around the world who live in countries that are sanctioned by the US can't even sign up for an account on services such as PayPal, LinkedIn, Fiverr, or UpWork. From very creative designers to very smart and capable developers. I live in such a country (Iran), and I have taken jobs that paid in crypto currencies before, using communities like r/Jobs4Bitcoins on Reddit, or even d/Jobs4Crypto on Dread (TOR network). All of them have been legal too. I don't intend to create a community for scammers.
If it's needed, let me know, and I'll gladly answer any question that might be left.
