RE: Uber now accepts Litecoin (but NOT Bitcoin!)
Read the source again. It's by an author with no articles, a Twitter account with no followers, and there is no actual Uber site mentioning this. Now reread the title of your source. Does the use of "Gigant" make it seem credible or reliable? This is probably fake news. Being critical of your sources is a key crypto skill -- always independently verify what you can and take nothing for granted.
I've updated my post to warn of fake news. It could be simply that the writer is from Czech and has poor english skills. NewsBTC had often been a reliable news source, sadly not so sure about this one.
Now it's pretty clear that this is fake news. https://www.reddit.com/r/litecoin/comments/6g5lve/uber_accepting_litecoin_in_czech_republic_newsbtc/
My point above is that you are a leader of this community and you've now made $300 by sharing something that was fake news but fake news that people (LTC hodlers) wanted to hear. What you do next is up to you. Good luck.
If it is any consolation prize, its been 5 months and now Uber has a new CEO, who used to be Expedia CEO and while there he brought Bitcoins to Expedia. Now he's rumored to be Bitcoin friendly and actually have a serius plan to roll out Bitcoin payments for Uber... it is a serious posibility now 5 months later. AND amazon MAY be announcing Bitcouin Support mkes sense when Bitcoin doesnt NEED to have instant confirmations for Amazon where theres no problem with 30 min wait for payment comirmtaion when siupping is gonna at least take a day or two or more... and an uber ride is gona take a few mins at LEAST so thats enough to confirm for BitcoiN RO just require the bitcoins are preloaded in an uber account EASY as that! BUT if Bitcoin Segwit2x comes outand is cheaper and faster than Bitcoin core, and can be used Fast and cheap like bitcoin USED to be like how litcoin is now, (or steem) then we could see uber accepting bitcoin segwit2x same with amazon google maybe we wil see all FAANG companies start to accept Bitcoin but MAYBE it will be the sidechain B2x coin that theyll choose hmmm.... or WHO KNOWS who they will choose.......
