Steam did this, and they made you "sign" a contract that you would decline your right for a refund. Lots of people bought games with BTC. They removed it because of high transfer fees, which is understandable.

It can work, downside is: no refunds.

nobody's going to accept crypto because it's volitile as shit and it makes accurate pricing impossible

The only way it works is for it to maintain a relatively stable value compared to other assets (you know, a currency), which requires an extreme maturation of the market, convertibility, or a block chain based currency issued by a central bank

Because it's not how it works.
You go to the dollar store and buy a 1$ item, say a casio watch, with 1$. That 1$ is worth 1$ and it will hold its value for a long time - plus the government, jobs, industries etc adjust with inflation and all that.

Now the same with crypto

You go to the dollar store and buy a 1$ item with a magic buttocoin (MBC) which magically is 1:1 with USD, so 1$ is 1 MBC, THAT DAY.

You walk out and by the time you walk home some fucking sperg whale drove the price of MBC through the roof. You gave your 1 MBC away for a casio watch, now that 1MBC is worth 10$.

Do you go back to the store and ask for a fucking refund because you paid 10 times as much? You fucking don't.
Flip it around if the opposite happens and think of the store, what do you say to your employees? "Oh sorry I had to pay your salary but now Magic Buttcoin is worth 0.10, so you get nothing."

Do you think this is reasonable for Amazon? For anyone? No it fucking isn't.

[Anonymous No.6966043]

>>6965884

From the anon that made the last plebbit thread about this shit

>Firstly, the argument that "it's too volatile" is backwards within itself. Many users claim that people will never want to exchange an appreciating asset for goods, but you're looking at it the wrong way. Because cryptocurrency has the power to both appreciate and depreciate in value, it is intrinsically a better currency than Fiat which only loses value over time. People are so used to having a depreciating asset as our main currency that they can't fathom a world where we pay with a currency that can actually go up in value over time.

>Secondly, the argument that "nobody will trade their coins" is stunted by your current perspective of cryptocurrency markets. The end goal of this movement isn't to hoard magical internet meme money and sell it at it's peak, the goal is to actually use cryptocurrency as a means of payment. This is the start of mass adoption, slowly we'll work our way up to the point where cryptocurrency is a primary payment method. Right now, the goal is to show companies and non-believers that many people not only own crypto, but want to exchange it.

This SUCH an amount of bullshit
The real world isn't some speculation fiesta far west where it's all fun and games and everyone is free to invest in a safe manner so even if they lose everything they can still stay alive.

In the real fucking world if a real small workplace gets shafted and loses 40% of their value in a month, they fire everyone and close doors. And nobody will choose to have a paycheck written in literal fairy dust that might blow over vs having a real contract with known, reliable returns.
You don't build a family, buy a house, buy a car, etc. on the prospect that your workplace might die tomorrow because Ching Chong Corp dumped their crypto ponzi scheme.
We're all talking of lambos here, not of eating and paying your bills. You need to know that at the end of the month that paycheck is coming and it's not going to lose 40% of its value before the week ends.
