Why would people want to adopt Bitcoin as a payment option?

Wed Oct 31, 2018 12:23 pm

We live in a world where we are bombarded with choices and the same goes for payment methods. We currently have a variety of different payment methods, like : Credit Cards / Debit Cards / PayPal / Payment processors / Charge cards / Prepaid cards / Phone and mobile payments / Money orders / Online Banking ePayments (OBeP) / Cheque and Crypto currencies.

looking at the wide selection of options on the table, would you be able to motivate people to adopt Bitcoin, over any of the other options?

What sets Bitcoin apart from these other options and how would you differentiate between these payment methods and Bitcoin? What makes Bitcoin better?

Let's discuss.

cryptocurrency is not specifically intended for the purchase of any things irl. It is more focused on secure purchases on the Internet as for me. Bitcoin is known by security and not so much information about you and your purchases get 3rd persons. There are many online services available and everyone can choose what he or she needed. For example, here guys try to find top internet websites

I don't see why any business wouldn't want to add a new payment option like bitcoin (BCH/BTC), i can't see any reason not to add it.
Accepting bitcoin can bring your business new customers, and what business wouldn't want that.
It is also a good way to acquire BCH/BTC at market rate.
Even if you don't know anything about crypto, and don't want to, you can still accept bitcoin and just have the fiat value credited to your bank account.

Who are those new customers that can not use popular payment options like Visa/Mastercard or Paypal or bank wire transfer but can use only crypto? And how many such potential new customers exist for an ordinary business, like selling backpacks or sneakers?

Customers just like myself and many others that love spending bitcoins, and some that maybe living off bitcoins (BCH) 100%
I would prefer not to use fiat cash, banks or credit cards at all where possible.

It really is not much hassle at all to add bitcoin payments to your business, so the benefits far outweigh the work required to add BCH/BTC payments.

First of all, because bitcoin is a more secure method of payment due to the decentralized character. The elimination of the third parties allows significant reduce the fees and make faster transactions. Apart from it, though bitcoin transactions are not completely anonymous, it doesn’t require to provide your personal information. There is no all-searching eye of banks over your transactions. Moreover, bitcoin transactions are accessible to the people who don’t have or can’t create a bank account. Although bitcoin as a payment option is not perfect and is in a developing stage, it’s already better than existed traditional payment methods.

Bitcoin's implication goes way beyond purchasing things. Yes obviously you can due to the fact that it's quicker and anonymous (no one can track where and when you spent something) but it also has global implications. Say I wanted to send money over seas to family, without the wait time and the rates, sending btc would be easy, almost instant and the rates dont take half the amount.

I think because it is easy, you just need a wallet, no address, name or other required things like in credit card.

Another advantage of using BTC as a payment method is the absence of a commission.
