Thanks for the mention @expatriotic!
Plebwork is 100% self-custodial so plebs get paid directly by clients into their own wallet. Any bitcoin wallet can be linked to your account such as Sparrow, Phoenix or even Trezor.
As stated in some comments below, right now the Plebwork marketplace is very skewed towards plebs/freelancers, so we need much more jobs posted. We are working on this.
You are absolutely right, @Coinsreporter! We are working on inviting more clients to post jobs. We just got started and can do much better.
Of course! And thank you, love your enthusiasm. We have a small TG group getting started, you can also find us there. We should announce our alpha release in the next few days: https://t.me/plebwork
I (Thibaud) have been earning 100% in bitcoin for almost 2 years now. That comes with a few challenges. Being a freelancer in bitcoin is awesome. That being said, finding various companies offering regular part-time gigs is hard. Invoicing clients can be time-consuming as you often bill in USD and get paid in BTC. On the flip side, if you are a bitcoin business looking for part-time talent, it's the jungle out there. Check out Upwork... lots of "crypto or blockchain" devs but bitcoin is nowhere to be seen. We experienced these two realizations and thought that we could improve on that. Also it would be awesome to allow more people to work on bitcoin part-time but who are not ready or willing to commit to it full yet as of yet.
Hey @satoshiplanet! Good question. On Plebwork, a pleb creates an account, link a bitcoin wallet and can get paid directly by their clients. Everything is handled in a chat between the client and pleb, and invoices are automatically sent out once a pleb submits their work. Payment is also handled directly on Plebwork for the client with a simple QR code scan enabled by BTCPay Server. So it is 100% bitcoin, no fiat and no KYC for plebs. You can work part-time (ore more) anonymously while keeping your fiat job. Our aim is also to attract reputable bitcoin businesses that may benefit from working with part-time talent. We hope to not only solve work management and payments but also discovery for part-time bitcoin gigs. I hope this answers your question.
