Has this been taken up much? I noticed the coinbase buy button when preordering Norns this week. Didn’t really have time to investigate but considering picking up a grid with crypto when the come back on sale. Is it just whatever the usd equivalent is at the time of purchase?

i was wondering the same thing

personally i would’ve loved to preorder norns with ETH, if only i could ever get into my coinbase account—their nonexistent verification emails are a nightmare :upside_down_face:

we put that in years ago back before the coin frenzy, and i’m now intending to remove it (when i get two minutes).

sadly crypto seems to have turned into a speculative financial tool. would love a utopian crypto that’s actually used for transactions.

Fair enough, makes sense. I’ll just cash out the BCH hanging around next time it’s up and set it aside :slight_smile:

why remove it? btc is used for transactions all the time. its just a tool like anything else. the idea that it will be “utopian” is kind of strange.

you could possibly use a pay by request setup. I think they’ve got a functioning app on woocomerce stores. not sure if thats applicable.

That would need to be some sort of stablecoin, I have high hopes for some sort of meta-coin based on DAI (usd-pegged token) and some sort of gold-pegged token like DGX Gold.
I don’t want to spend or receive tokens that change wildly in price 10 minutes after purchase

I think it’ll take some time before such a standard meta-stable-coin is established

I suppose having coinbase couldn’t hurt though
