alt Hacker NewsI have been posting about cutting out the middleman for all sorts of ecosystems. Drivers and Passengers for instance.
For that we need an open decentralized source platform with no profit motive.
That’s what I built: https://intercoin.org/applications
But it takes time to make actually compelling alternatives to platforms that have BILLIONS of dollars behind them, a huge network effect already, and if needed, monopoly lock-in where they can say “it’s either us or them” to market participants.

I'm sure you mean well, but things like this will never speak to the working class performing the gigs/work itself. You already alienate them by naming the project *Coin ("cryptocurrency is only for the rich to get richer"), and the more flowery language about technology you use, you alienate them further.
If you're aiming to get those folks onboard you need to 1) skip any details about the technical internals, the organization-side internals are much more important to non-tech people and 2) target a specific audience and write specifically addressing their specific needs/problems.
