Guild Wars 2

Prices don’t have to be set in bitcoin, rather, if I wanted to buy $10 worth of gem, then the spot price of bitcoin is used and I pay that amount that amount ($10) in bitcoin – so fluctuations isn’t an issue to the seller. Bitpay is a service like paypal – bitpay allows a seller to accept bitcoin like how paypal is used to accept dollars (except with bitpay, they will convert bitcoins to dollars for you if you want)

Sure, there are some instances where people launder money or pay for hits with bitcoin, but by far, the most used method for these things is CASH, not bitcoin. The US is only going after people who do illegal things with bitcoin and not bitcoin itself.

Now if only I could hear what one of the developers has to say in regards to accepting bitcoin…

A lot of shady websites already sell gw2 gold for bitcoin. Instead of them being the only venue for people wanting to use bitcoin on gw2, what if the developers make it possible to buy gems for bitcoin?

I want to be able to buy gems using bitcoin.

There is a company called Bitpay (https://bitpay.com) that will help take any bitcoin payments and convert bitcoin straight into cash deposited in a bank account (with fees much cheaper than paypal!)

I would be very pleased if this could happen! Thank you!
