Those that do know, have to leave the join process to calculate the actual cost to them. Either way, they are lost.
This is valid point. I seriously doubt there was discounted option presented like that in this case.
But, look, man.
There are other paysites accepting BTC. Even if adding btc option would have decreased their sales by 5-10% they would have dropped it within the first week! 5-10%. And we are engaging into considering 50%+++

PLEASE!
