Microsoft has stopped accepting Bitcoin... this is the kind of thing that makes me bullish on REQ

Artice discussing how Microsoft ending Bitcoin use on their platform

Companies like Microsoft, Valve, etc. want to accept crypto but don't actually want to handle it due to volatility and high fees. Even the quick, low fee currencies are still going to have massive price volatility due to the nature of crypto (not to mention the difficulty gaining the name recognition of Bitcoin).

And this is an issue with them accepting one currency. Try hundreds. Or try being the mom and pop store that wants to accept crypto and runs into the same issues without the resources of a Microsoft to solve it. It's a big pain to the point where they don't want to do it.

Or... they can use Request... and get paid in the fiat they want to hold while gaining the capability to accept hundreds of coins for minimal fees all via a single Pay via Request button. With REQ, accepting crypto goes from being a complex pain to being extraordinarily simple.

It's a grand vision but it's one that I feel is absolutely essential if crypto is ever going to enter the mainstream. Adoption of cryptocurrency is terrible right now but REQ can help change that. Just glad to be an early adopter to watch this take off in real time.
