Gig Economy Finance

Definition

Gig economy finance addresses the financial needs and payment solutions for independent contractors and freelance workers. Within the digital asset context, this involves leveraging cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology to provide faster, cheaper, and more transparent payment processing for gig workers, especially those operating across international borders. Digital currencies can circumvent traditional banking delays and high fees, offering improved financial inclusion and operational efficiency for this workforce. It provides new avenues for compensation and asset management.
