If you're in Los Angeles, I strongly recommend googling LAPD Bandit Cab Enforcement before using this app to give rides. Also, other cities may have similar enforcement operations.

BitCoin integration is on the way! I know what you mean, but the Bitcoin integration is going to be really exciting!!!
If there is one thing people love to be paid in, it is a collectible whose value widely varies daily based on when its larger holders game the system or when online drug markets get shutdown.
This is the height of stupidity. If you absolutely refuse to use any products built by C-suite execs that advise and/or support Trump, then go live as a hermit in the wilderness. edit: Uber/lyft are built by smart and motivated technologists who spend everyday making the most sophisticated ridesharing platforms out there. To use an unvetted and unsafe knockoff is inane.
I've been looking for something like this. Not because of Trump but because I strongly oppose the "sharing economy" that is explotative of workers, circumventing legitimate market regulation and reaping profits in a centralized manner.
There are actually taxi cooperative or call center that have their own app. But they're each limited to one city. What they need to do is get together to release a high-quality app that works all over the world by relying on the local taxi call center partner.

Being virtually cashless by using credit-cards for everything is very common in professional circles.

We need a "CryptoCab" app. Secure, signed verification of driver id. And the app will even pick a random location near your intended destination to disguise your true destination.

It's likely/possible for the drivers to be insulated from that with something like bitpay that auto-converts to currency.
But if you auto-convert to currency then what's the point of using bitcoin at all?
