commerce

it's been a couple of months since I started building drift.money

i've spoken with many stakeholders across stablecoin and crypto payments ecosystem, but also with merchants and businesses entirely new to this space

here are some key learnings i keep in mind as i build 🫡

Super curious about the last one. Has enabling crypto payments led to a noticeable increase in new customers? 

I figured merchants might see existing customers switch payment types, moreso than attracting new clients

in my experience they see potential not because of reducing fees, but because of increasing volumes

unlocking a new payment method widens the customer base (potentially)

@sterschuyler specially when you are early with a payment method with an untapped customer base willing to use it

if for example there are 2/10 coffee shops near my office who accept stablecoins, it’s more likely i go there, just as i prefer going where i can spend with apple pay vs cash only
