RE: Cubans Can Now Pay Their Electric Bill Using HBD

This is also an example of the importance of a community, HiveCuba didn't make that happen, it was a member of the community who believe in Hive and saw an opportunity to create a startup by solving a problem. Also an example of how proud we are of every member, like @crptogeek in this case with @hiveremesas.

That is what it takes. Members of the community all showing their skills.
What other things can be purchased/paid through the app with HBD? Is this the only use case?

Hello @taskmaster4450le. It's @CrptoGeek over here, creator of @HiveRemesas. Thanks for this post and for appreciating the work of my startup.
Regarding your question about what other services can be purchased or paid for through the app, I can tell you that:
Paying the electricity bill is just the last of the incorporated services. The cell phone and nauta (internet) account recharge is another of the app's services.
HiveRemesas also incorporates a remittance service (or crypto-fiat exchange between HIVE/HBD for local Cuban currency CUP and MLC).
My country is currently living a complex economic scenario in which workers receive their salary in CUP but the Cuban regime sells us food in MLC (Moneda Libremente Convertible, a sort of digital dollar).
That is why one of the most requested services by Cuban hivers is precisely the one of exchanging HIVE and HBD for MLC.
PS: I recently turned off the possibility of acquiring virtual VISA cards because the provider I was using (https://paywithmoon.com/) unexpectedly stopped providing services. But this was also one of the integrated services.
You can access the app, which is nothing more than a Telegram bot that picks up orders by going to t.me/HiveRemesasBot. Feel free to play with the commands to discover the flow behind this app.
Thanks again for the appreciation.
@taskmaster4450le what he said!
@crptogeek this is very interesting and important work. I live in Mexico and would like to pick your brain about how it could be possible to do something similar here. I work for a real estate agency that accepts crypto. But no Hive yet. It'd be great if it could be implemented here. Not just for my business, of course. Would you be open to connect on discord? Or elsewhere if you prefer.
Thank you for the appreciation 🙌.
It would be a pleasure to help you. I'm not an expert on Discord but I think you can find me with this: CrptoGeek#2281.
If not, just let my know how I can found you.
I've sent you a friend request on discord. My handle is @misslasvegas#6566
But if it's easier for you to contact you elsewhere, please let me know.
