Contactless transit payments discussion... Angelinos can learn a lot from London implementations.
imageWow --> 7 in 10 payments in australia are contactless, says Tami Hargreaves, Barclaycard #cardsandpayments
You can get off the plane in London, get on the subway and tap your credit card says @dgwbirch #cardsandpayments #contactless
Transit is a really interesting application of new payment technology.
Belo Horizonte Brazil has face recognition on the bus - @dgwbirch
It's not as crazy to think you get on the bus, they scan your face and that's how you pay for your trip. -@dgwbirch
I don't buy that customers want to manage their own data. We have to manage it for them. - @dgwbirch
We don't do surveys anymore to understand transit flows, because thanks to anon data, we don't need too. - Mike Tuckett #cardsandpayments
Most haven't thought about using Mobile in a transit environment. It's mostly retail uses. -Mike Tuckett #cardsandpayments
Mobile doesn't have enough value add for transit. - @dgwbirch #cardsandpayments
No one uses the Apple watch for transit transactions because you have to turn your arm over. - @dgwbirch
imagePayments is one of the least interesting applications of the blockchain - Philip Joyce #cardsandpayments
What is interesting is how we go about finding the way we use this new technology - Jason Potts on Blockchain
Blockchain has allowed us to put payments into a community that didn't have it before - Jason Potts ( So it IS about payments)

That Thiel/Gawker thing? It's about human emotions.

This kind of conversation is better had in person..... I share my thoughts w/ you later. @leashless @dgwbirch
Fair to whom? To other humans? To corporations? To platforms? When? Humans are not unified in their expressions. https://twitter.com/leashless/status/737251869765013504
Not everyone is an asshole. Or an asshole all the time. There are complex reasons why someone may "be" an asshole. https://twitter.com/leashless/status/737248003111653376
Reputation is about Trust. But to trust, you have to open yourself up and be vulnerable. It's taking a chance, risk. https://twitter.com/leashless/status/737235144164139008
@leashless @dgwbirch Reputation increases security to enable more human vulnerability and emotional connection.
@leashless @dgwbirch But many humans don't have the emotional capacity to be open and vulnerable like this. Women know all about this.
@leashless @dgwbirch If I did a binary simplification, I would say you have a "male" worldview of "reputation" where I have a "female" one.

Called this months ago #futurist --> Trump revealed to be young Baron Vladimir Harkonnen http://bit.ly/1UpU3Ij
@DivoPrimata @dgwbirch @leashless have you read a super sad true love story (for rep currency gone awry)?
@DivoPrimata @dgwbirch @leashless or triton (by samuel delaney) for a view on communal living, among other (& my favorite SciFi of all time)
@DivoPrimata @dgwbirch @leashless I highly doubt that, because you are dealing with people, who tend to be more complex than code.
Here is my original tweet comparing Trump & Baron Harkonnen - April 4 friends. https://twitter.com/heathervescent/status/717105116352917504
Ooohhh Pierre Omidyar is such a good one. Have always been a fan.
RT @anildash: Kudos to @lazerow. "How he destroys Gawker doesn’t matter to Peter as much as whether Gawker is destroyed." https://t.co/K9gk…
Sounds like an interesting book, but you'd learn the same at one of my talks --> The social life of platforms http://bit.ly/1U91lNK
@industrychanger why do you want to be a futurist? Are you a sucker for punishment? :-)
@DivoPrimata @dgwbirch @leashless how is this less complicated than cash exchange, or mobile payment transfer?
@DivoPrimata @dgwbirch @leashless ah. ok. gotcha.
Love Alain de Bottom. Nice piece --> Why You Will Marry the Wrong Person http://nyti.ms/1OVN4lX
