Before @getswype fires me for always being on mute camera off in standup, let's talk about how Swype will enable the pseudonymous economy and Exit from legacy institutional control of your life.

Today when a business employs you, you are almost certainly a W-2 employee or 1099 contractor. Your real name, your emergency contacts (i.e. your spouse, your parents, your siblings), your face, phone number, home address—all of these are reported or become highly discoverable,
Furthermore, these things are now linked to you for people who are not even your employer. Anyone online who discovers this info can also find your employer with a little digging.
In the Before Times, we had phonebooks but did we have roving bands of cancellation fanatics?

Swype won't just give you greater purchasing power against the depreciating US dollar/other fiat by spending crypto as a consumer, or personal payments between friends, it's also building the basis of crypto payroll; pseudonymous employment blossoms out of spendable property.
Existing law in the US (and one must always render unto Caesar things of Caesar's) allows for anonymous LLC/corporate engagement. Yes, the USGov has created FinCEN. Yes, reporting requirements exist. Yes, a registered agent in New Mexico will know you. But the public won't.
And why keep the same handle forever, everywhere? You can have more than one alt, you know (For instance, I am also known on twitter as ParikPatelCFA and IRL as Naval Ravikant)
So now less an employee and more a *vendor*. Time and Materials, Price maximums, all available to you!

But that's just contract law as it exists in the world of paper and printers and pens. But how do they ACH transfer or wire you money? And what money should they send? Is every contract going to be different? Even in an anonymous LLC, are you going to be doing POs all day?
Enter the smart contract. I will not be paid by Swype in dollars, automatically as time simply passes by, and I will only be Indian Bronson to them. Deliverables are billables, reach goals and bonuses also specified—compensation happens as a function of execution.
We'll document this protocol and make it available to everyone. ETH support and other projects first, but know that Swype won't stop at crypto p*ypal or bitcoin *pple pay. Earn in Crypto, Send in Crypto, Spend in Crypto. Your keys, your money. Pray for Australia.
