All I was saying that adding BTC option can not discourage 50% of people to join the site that otherwise would have joined.

Simple and seemingly beneficial or innocuous changes often have a very profound impact, positive or negative and the results are nearly always counter-intuitive. My experience is that its very possible and it would depending primarily on how it was presented to the user. For example, if its presented like "Best Deal: Save 50%, pay with Bitcoins"... then almost every single user who doesn't know what a bitcoin is has to leave the join process to educate themselves. Those that do know, have to leave the join process to calculate the actual cost to them. Either way, they are lost.
