It would be awesome and so much easier if you allow bitcoin payments for memberships. One way would be to use a third party processor, but ideally you could create a bitcoin wallet for each admin which would allow you to process payments internally. Stripe, Paypal, Google pay are never easy to use…

Stripe played with Bitcoin payments for awhile and then ditched it. I personally would love to see Bitcoin, and especially Dash, supported. Maybe something to poke someone like Coinpayments or one of those services for.

Not very many people actually pay with crypto. Other sites have offered it and it’s less than .1% of all payments typically.

Depends on the targeted demographic, and importantly, how easy you make it to use. And of course, crypto is unparalleled if you have a cross-border patronage.

Crypto transactions may be less than .1% overall, but that’s not the case across all niches. A crypto newsletter or porn blog would expect a higher proportion of transactions to be made with cryptocurrency.

That sounds good ! In addition to Bitcoin, it should also be Ethereum and other ERC20 token. I think it will be more interesting .

I’m very interested in this!! I’ve been trying to make something work but don’t know how to make it happen! I’d like to implement a Pay per Read, a paywall, that could show a Lightning Network (Bitcoin) QR code a user could pay to read the hidden content. I’d like to do it per author, so each autho…

@talvasconcelos Possibly worth reaching out to Alex Bosworth who uses Pay per Read on his Y’alls website . I see he’s set up a Pay to Contact Form too.

Thanks for the heads up. I don’t think yalls is on ghost, if i was doing a custom CMS i wouldn’t have any issues! Pay to contact is on LNbits for ages…
