It is very unlikely that we will ever support any of these kinds of alt coins unless at some time in the future they become the defacto way for online payments. By supporting something like this we’re effectively making someone else rich by endorsing their invented currency that they probably happen to be holding on to a mass of. We’re better off making our own “instant, feeless currency” via a row in our database.
Hope that makes sense
Thanks
That's fair enough, thanks for the reply. Speaking for myself, I don't hold crazy amounts, and I think the advantage is that it would save a fair bit on payment processing fees for everyone. No need to share if you don't want to, but presumably Paypal/cards take 2-4% or so off every average transaction, right? I get the not wanting to get into crypto tribalism, I just think this could be a pretty nice cost savings that could be passed on to one side or the other.
Gift cards would be nice then, to fund account credit. There would probably be resellers that sell for crypto, so you don't have to endorse any...
Else, an payment method like NOWPayments which accepts many cryptocurrencies and allows you to auto convert to USD would be nice. They have pretty low fees. You don't have to endorse any crypto this way!
