Hi folks! This is Maryann, Co-Founder of Lybra (Get paid in USDC easily as a LATAM freelancer) Problem we are solving: Freelancers in Argentina have challenges with receiving payments. The traditional process of going through multiple platforms like Wise, Paypal, Wallbit etc can be time consuming, expensive and inconvenient. (Lose 10-12% in fees) Background on why we're doing this: Bryan and I are serial entrepreneurs with a passion for cryptocurrency and trading. We were inspired to create Lybra after hearing about the struggles faced by one of our our close Argentinine freelancer friend who was strugging with high inflation rates. Feel free to try it and please let us know if you have any feedback or comments for our MVP! Thank you.

  > strugging with high inflation rates What about inflation on USD? /s Congrats on the launch, we need to see more things like this. I'd suggest adding more 'decentralized' USD stables as an option though. Circle could easily shut you down. Also, why are all 3 steps the same?

    Inflation on USD is comparatively low, but the main concern here is the high inflation rates for pesos used by Argentinians. Appreciate the support and suggestion to include more decentralized USD stables as an option – we'll definitely look into it! Many competitors only accept business accounts, leaving freelancers at a disadvantage. Our goal is to fill that gap and cater to freelancers in the market. Apologies for the confusion with the 3 steps being the same – we launched the product quickly to ensure the backend functionality. Thanks for pointing it out, and we'll work on fixing that!
