Hard as nails for an American to get an account on a Crypto exchange, thus Coinbase is in my Sig. I had an account on another site created for me by someone at InterNext in 2016, but a year and a half later, the user/pass didn't work, the guy "forgot," and the site had no "forgot password" remedy, so I will not mention them by name.

Outside of the USA, you've got dozens of buy/sell/trade/exchange/invest sites to pick and choose from. Coinbase has 4 currencies for us Americans to choose from (BTC, BTH, ETH, LTC). World-wide, there's at least "dozens," if not "hundreds" of Cryptos to get in on.

Should websites accept Coins? Of course!

Here's the easy way:
* Get a Wallet (Coinbase for Americans, or from a BitCoin ATM). Outside of the USA, you have dozens more choices to get a Wallet.

* Generate a "public" address key. Most Wallets let you create a huge number of "addresses"- public (inbound) and private (outbound, for you and you alone to spend). Think of addresses as "sub accounts" for accounting purposes. You need at least "one," but maybe you want dozens! Oh, each Coin needs a separate address from other Coins. So if you have e.g. Coinbase and are accepting BTC, BTH, ETH, LIC, you'll need (a minimum of) 4 addresses and QR Codes. One for each Coin. You can start easy with just BitCoin BTC. BitCoin Cash BTH became popular and a windfall for some in December. Ethereum ETH is a solid, rising star. LiteCoin LTC comes and goes.

* View that "public" address as a QR Code and paste it on your checkout page. (Just like I did for my Avatar to the left.)
* Instruct the buyer to send you Coins (the Coins your Wallet will accept). When he does, and you get the confirmations (usually after 30 minutes, but the network has been slow lately with the increase in buy/sell orders worldwide), release his order.

People who have Coins, are doing so for investing and speculative purposes. But, for a few minutes of free work, you can accept the Coins of those who are that much farther head of the rest of the world.

I believe, at present, that Coins are not something the average visitor to your site has, for the purpose of spending on Porn. But, that could change any minute, so why not be ready! It's FREE!
Fucking awesome Nick! Hit me up on Skype or email; let's hook up for a drink (on me) at the show; I'd love to pick your brain for a few.
