trigger warning: shitcoins winning in payments
one of my sites recently got banned by stripe (classic). Was able to get a new processor going quickly though.
I've always had bitcoin/lightning payments, but only 1-2% of sales went through it.
So as an experiment, I added ETH, SOL and fiatcoins.
Crypto sales went up about 400% and now account for about 10% of my total sales
additionally, only bitcoin users are sending in complaints to my support desk asking "why is my payment not going through?" (because it's still stuck in mempool but they don't understand that when they pay from coinbase/binance)
Make of this as you will.
