Every country has different laws around crypto, including partial and full bans, so nomads using crypto should know about that depending on where they work from. Certainly "spend from balance" and converting to local currency will vary a lot across countries, likely always more trouble than converting USD.
I freelanced and traveled full time for over a decade. Never experienced any problems with payments or US banks, or simply using US credit/debit/ATM cards. I never asked customers to pay in crypto, but I know freelancers who insisted on that and lost customers as a result. Freelancers generally don't have leverage to tell their customers how to manage payables, and crypto smells too much like risk and fraud to more than enough business people already. Introducing friction, novelty, or anything that looks sketchy into a freelancing relationship seems like a bad idea to me.
Edit: Two of the largest freelancer marketplaces, Upwork and Fiverr, do not accept or pay out in crypto.
AirSend focuses on a different group. We serve nomads who work across countries where receiving USD is slow, costly, or unreliable.
Clients still pay in fiat through a local bank account, so nothing changes for them. Once the funds arrive, we convert them into stablecoins so users can hold, send, or spend instantly. That means less waiting, lower fees, and better control over currency loss.
For many freelancers in LATAM and other high-inflation regions, this preserves value and makes it easier to move money around.
