Wordpress now accepting BitCoins


Buying or selling online can be troublesome hwn some consumers are insisting to pay with real money and some countries even disallowing services such as PayPal. BitCoins is a unique currency on its own, existing purely online. WordPress, the market-leader in blogging solutions now wants to honor the use of BitCoins, as part of their mission to "make publishing democratic". Paying for upgrades, add-ons or themes on WordPress is a real thing and for some of the site's premier bloggers it does make sense. More than 60 countries don't work with PayPal so there are quite some potential customers that could reach out to use BitCoins. BitCoin is how WordPress wants to help bloggers from all over the globe to get further into the world of publishing. It isn't a completely flawless payment method, for example refunds aren't yet possible using BitCoins, but WordPress states that they will still honor any refund request, returning cash in BitCoins manually.

Below you'll find an introduction video.
