Bitcoin only Businesses that reject all fiat

Tue Apr 19, 2016 4:19 am

I am interested in compiling a list of businesses that exclusively accept Bitcoin. Businesses that exclusively accept bitcoin are a value added asset to our community as they are more likely to not immediately cash out and any person doing business with them are incentivized to buy bitcoin first. These are the businesses we should value and support first and foremost as they are placing their trust completely in our ecosystem.

Please exclude these businesses: illegal drug and murder for hire , porn, ICO's , mixers, securities, ponzi's, cloud mining companies, hot wallets, payment processors, scam or misleading goods or services, and gambling sites.
Some of those goods and services are important for society but should be listed in a different directory.

Preliminary list :

General Goods and Services

https://beerbellybees.com raw Ohio honey
https://bitcoinjerky.com Jerky
https://btctrip.com Flight Booking
https://dutyfree.io Duty free cigarettes
https://icall.com VoIP service

Removed

Unfortunately, I had to remove bitcoin.com(this site) as I can now see they accept fiat with paypal and other alts. This is somewhat shocking and I wasn't expecting this but the owners priorities appear to primarily support sales than bitcoin.

Shapeshift.io also accepts alts to sell for btc so technically I should have never added them either.

I think you should re-add bitcoin.com
Everything we accept is instantly converted to Bitcoin via shapeshift.

All of the proceeds from the store are also converted into Bitcoin.

We still have no bank account, and 100% of the employees are paid in Bitcoin.

thanks for the list.

accepting bitcoins as payments in sites/businesses is kinda actually easier compared to money via creditcard. We cant get taxed using bitcoins as of now. right?

The tax man will tax you on whatever he decides. He has the guns, and he makes the rules.
It's just a bit harder for them to seize your Bitcoin account than your bank account.

Roger, thank you for your clarification. Personally , I trust what you say and believe you but there is a problem.

This list doesn't and cannot reflect how much of gross revenue is kept in bitcoin. This is an interesting problem that we may eventually find a solution to that respects business and user privacy in the future. (leaking exact sales numbers to competitors is not wise)

Thus this list is more concerned with businesses who make an ideological stand and reject the fiat outright for ethical reasons which in turn places pressure upon consumers to buy bitcoin because they cannot purchase these goods or services with any other means. You may indeed be instantly converting all fiat or alts to btc , and I believe that you are at least converting all fiat to crypto at minimum, but that doesn't take an ideological stand and encourage the consumer to invest and become involved in bitcoin when they can simply spend fiat through paypal.

We all know that illegal gambling , drugs, and prostitution principally supports bitcoins fungible premium and states heavily subsidize bitcoin because of their regulations and restrictions. I have no problem with this, but the intention of this list is to showcase other, harder to find businesses that only accept bitcoin for ethical reasons rather than out of necessity. Accepting fiat reflects that you place sales before this ideological stand which is perfectly fine and you can make a fair argument that you are doing it for convenience to the consumer as you are exchanging the btc to fiat for them. The issue I have with this is that it than robs the user of the experience of learning to use btc directly and learn how to secure it and the joys they can have when they see it appreciates in value over time.

I encourage you to re-consider accepting alts on a site called "bitcoin.com" (perhaps make a more general crypto site that accepts alts?) and to stop accepting fiat here as well.

FYI--- I am equally disappointing at Theymos for allowing alts to be discussed and pumped on a site called "bitcointalk.org" but give him credit for moderating that discussion off of the other platforms like r/bitcoin . People should be able to freely create, discuss, and learn about alts but it really is confusing and unnecessary to categorically include these discussions in sites specifically about bitcoin.

Thank you for the detailed reply.
I will give all of this some more thought over the coming days.

Had bitcoin been allowed to scale in a timely manner, I doubt there would have ever even been a need to accept alts.

Hopefully segwit will temporarily release a little fee pressure. Only on the chain scaling is fundamentally broken because 0 conf payments are so insecure so we need to start using more payment channels. Segwit will increase the blocksize a bit and we need to eventually increase it more but all our efforts should be focused behind some larger underlying problems of security and scaling. In a way its a good thing that bitcoin isn't going mainstream now because we have so many underlying UX and security problems that need to be fixed first.

It seems the majority market prefers to "Keep it Bitcoin" and to stay away from Segwit.

As of now i think we cant tax it but i agree with you dude. Government would tax it if they want to tax it . They have a control to us and to that we cant control it and we cant stop it . It is the government choice and rules we are just here to follow

I think http://www.bitstashers.com belongs on that list :-)
I would love to add you to the list but am conflicted because you also accept Litecoin and dash and this topic is about businesses that accept bitcoin only. There are reasons why I want to showcase BTC only -

1) Having more than one currency dilutes the network effect and confuses new consumers
2) Dash in particular has a really nasty and corrupt history and is likely completely centralized by a few individuals controlling most masternodes (Lets not argue over this, I am very familiar with their history and don't have time to keep repeating it)

If you decide to drop alts let me know and I will add you to a bunch of lists , otherwise I completely understand.

P.S... Yes, sorry , I'm a Bitcoin minamalist, but don't outright hate alts for alts alone(namecoin and monero are fine examples which I see some utility within )

I'll take fiat, but always prefer Bitcoin or bullion in person. Maybe some day I'll be able to reject fiat entirely.

Nice list. Has anyone on here used the site on the list: http://bitcoincommodities.com ?

The pricing is decent and I just want to make sure it's a relatively well reputed site.
