Is it possible to attract people to the site by adding the ability to pay with bitcoins?

Question

Computer networks

Is it worth bothering with this?

Answer 1

What is the theme of the site.
In any case, if you introduce such an opportunity, you can write about it in thematic sites, which can attract attention. I would not say that the community is so small. Here are a couple of forums to get you started 1 , 2 .

Answer 2

No, unless you deal in guns or drugs

Answer 3

Of course not. There are very few bitcoin users compared to other audiences. Better think about how to reach a wider audience.

Answer 4

Depending on the type of service / product, market niche and target audience.
I will give just one example: In 2014, there were more than 250 thousand hostings on this planet (I read such statistics somewhere) and only 4 (four!) Offices trading VPS for bitcoins, three of which are outright scams. I had to choose one office out of one. If they had asked for at least $200, I would have paid anyway.
This is an example of how, in some cases, the option to pay in bitcoin makes all the difference.

Answer 5

No. If only digital maniacs. Cheaper to pay in traditional ways.

Answer 6

If the site is designed for "savvy" - then it's worth it. If not, then just for experience.

Answer 7

As an indirect method of attraction - yes. Maybe no one will need the bitcoin payment method itself, but it will be an informational occasion for a series of articles, on the same habr, etc.
