Well initially I was onboard with using Bitcoin to buy seeds as it seemed like a good way to pay since many seed banks are giving you a discount. In the past few days I have realized that the fees assosicated with each purchase quickly negates any discount being offered. I am not well versed in Bitcoin but I'm not an idiot either, the fees involved will/have caused me to never use it again, after depleting what I currently have which will be today. There is no way this currency will survive with this type of user fees associated with it. Example, I made a €73 purchase and the fee was €15! Sorry, I'm done and no longer a fan!
 
Unfortunately the fees have gotten crazy because alot of the large holders will pay it to liquidate because they are sitting on a mint.
 
I've used them for all my purchases not a fan of Simplex but like Coinbase and when I made my 1st purchase I created a Bitcoin wallet and put like $45 to $50 more than my order made transaction and on the 3rd I decided to make another purchase and was having a hard time using Simplex so I just sent what I had left in my wallet which I know was supposed to be no more than $50 and went to Coinbase to complete purchase and to my surprise the about left on my order of $168 was $44 and some change so I don't know what or how my funds increased but not gonna complain as I now have spend what I had in the Bitcoin wallet and want need any seeds for a few years LOL

Pretty much the way I had it all pictured in the beginning but the last few days have convinced me it will never be a viable alternative currency due to fees. A €15 fee for a €75 transaction is just not sustainable. I know for a fact I'm done with it.
 
Thanks for heads up on fees! Was just thinking about my first bitcoin buy due to discounts at seedbanks too, but if there are fees like that I'll stay traditional in my currency
 
Not bothering with crypto c tbh. The more I research, the more I can't be bothered (too much time and frustrations...). I am a lazy clunt though!:biggrin:
