Maintenance is not an issue if bike-sharing becomes a non-viable business.
One of the scam bike-sharing business models are to make money on deposits, raise money from investors, and bounce.
So the Chinese government is looking at forcing these companies to place deposits into reserve accounts, instead of letting them declare as revenue to attract investors.
Are you referring to a previous article that says Uber Eats is just to juice up Uber's revenue numbers for their investors?
I recall that Uber ride-share accounting doesn't use top line as revenue (only the cut), but for Uber Eats, they are allowed to use the whole order as revenue.
