Stay positive Bradley, stay positive. Don't get angry over people's ignorance Bradley. It does you no good. All roads lead to Hive and one day everyone will know.
They will no what decentralization and what web 3.0 is. Not what people and business think it is.
Stripe
First what or who is Stripe?
Straight from there website: Payments infrastructure for the internet
"Millions of businesses of all sizes—from startups to large enterprises—use Stripe’s software and APIs to accept payments, send payouts, and manage their businesses online."
As usual I was doing some reading and this article Stripe Debuts Fiat-to-Crypto Payment Offering for Web3 Businesses got me.
My thoughts
First I thought how cool is this and what they are offering. Then I read the article about ten times. And as you can see in my first paragraph it ended up truly annoying me.
Fuck when will the world wake up. That was running through my brain. So straight to Leo I came to write.
Some of the article
"The widget allows customers to more easily use crypto to engage with businesses and content creators across the world."
I first liked that paragraph, I guess because of the content creators part. But I kept reading.
"The offering, a customizable widget that can be embedded directly into a decentralized exchange (DEX), non-fungible token (NFT) platform, wallet or decentralized app (dapp), is designed to allow customers to instantly purchase cryptocurrencies in Web3 apps. Eleven of the company's initial 16 projects are built on Solana. Stripe said it offers customizable on-ramping services and handles know-your-customer (KYC), payments, fraud and compliance issues"
What the hell are they trying to say? Either I am totally out to lunch but none of that paragraph is true. None of it is Decentralized and none of it is web 3.0. Am I wrong?
Audius
What is Audius?
I have to share this screen shot.
from their website
How can a business claim to be web 3.0 when on the bottom of their site they got copy right, terms of service. Talk about an oxymoron.
Orca
"Another project that is using Stripe’s widget is Solana-based decentralized exchange Orca. Users will now be able to make fiat purchases for tokens such as USDC and SOL via an on-ramp built inside Orca."
Okay okay okay. Where is Hives TOS? Because apparently if you are web 3.0 and decentralized you need a big one. Orca's TOS for your reading pleasure.
I am having some really grand belly laughs here now.
I am totally positive that the the business community is trying to pull the wool over everyone's eyes with the two terms: Decentralized and web 3.0. And or they are just that ignorant.
Thank what ever you believe in for Hive. We are the only hope crypto and blockchain has.
I am alive and Thriving.
