Disrupting the Disruptors — How LaborCrypto will Empower Freelancers Around the Globe to Finally Be Free. LaborCrypto Follow Jul 4, 2018 · 3 min read

In the last several years blockchain technology, and the immutable digital ledger system it offers has caused massive disruption in the financial industry and beyond. At the same time, there has been a virtual explosion of online freelancing sites, giving millions of freelancers across the globe access to billions of customers, and creating a vast and growing new economy, the Gig Economy.

Blockchain technology started with Bitcoin, the cryptocurrency, but was quickly proven so valuable as a digital ledger that it was soon adopted to many other industries, including pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, shipping and so forth. Infallible and immutable, blockchains are the perfect ledger system.

Freelance platforms, including UpWork, Freelancer, Fiverr, Etsy, RedBubble and more, tapped into the communication power of the world wide web and the convenience of mobile devices, connecting sellers with buyers worldwide. Unlike blockchain technology however, freelance websites are far from perfect.

The Problem(s) With Freelance Websites

If you ask the average freelancer, working on one of the various platforms, what they perceive as the biggest flaws of said platforms, they will usually refer to 5 major problem areas that cause them to suffer financially, as well as causing negative consumer responses.

Problem #1- High Service Costs and Fees

On average, freelance platforms take 22% of the selling price of every Gig sold. On Fiverr, for example, they take 20%, or 1 out of every 5 dollars the freelancer (the ‘seller’) earns. Many of these platforms also charge the customer (the ‘buyer’) a fee to use the platform (or ‘ecosystem’). Some ecosystems even take a fee when a seller gets paid a ‘tip’, a practice that’s illegal in the United States and other countries.

Problem #2 — Delays Getting Paid

If high fees weren’t bad enough, freelance platforms also force sellers to wait for their earnings, sometimes up to 2 weeks. These delays are mainly caused by the traditional financial system, although some platforms also tack-on extra waiting time, creating extra financial stress for millions of freelancers.

Problem #3 — Inflexible User Experience & Processes

Here’s a problem area for both buyers and sellers. For sellers, the inflexible sales processes used by virtually every freelance economy force them to waste hours of valuable time every day. These same processes waste the time and energy of the buyers as well, who are forced to rely on outdated review systems to evaluate sellers and their respective offers.

Problem #4 — Lack of Banking Access

Although a problem not suffered by all sellers, roughly 40% of the freelance community has either little or no banking access, making it much more difficult, and costly, to receive their hard-earned income.

Problem #5 — Loyalty Issues

Possibly the biggest problem freelancers face with all ecosystems is this; inequity between the platform and the creators. The single reason that freelance platforms exist is due to buyers and sellers, but neither are given financial thanks for this fact, causing many to come and go far too frequently.
