We added a btc option at Tuft & Needle last November and up until about Feb was about 5% of our sales. btc purchases have been steadily dropping and are now around .01%

Do you offer a discount for people paying in BTC? If not, why not?

Alternate theory: Bitcoin owners are disproportionately likely to be speculators who have no interest in ever spending Bitcoins except maybe once as a novelty.

I have owned for a long time. This is not a good time to spend, that is all. The price seems to be artificially depressed right now, especially considering all the big companies starting to accept it. In a few months I will use them way more.

I pay my monthly VPN subscription with BTC, and will continue to do so. That's not a store and certainly a niche, mind.
