High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

I think its a good idea in premise, but adding tons of new payment methods (as you would have to add more coins as well) might be a lot to manage, and look like a lot when buying a service.

LTC has such low fees, just like BCH. they only have 3 working payments accepted right now so adding another popular one wouldn't do anything bad

Okay, but then lets say people say "well they added ltc, lets add eth." then people with doge go "woah woah woah, they added 2 new coins, why not doge" all of a sudden you got multitudes of coins that Mick has to deal with and liquidate. But if Mick is willing to do that by all means as it benefits him by possibly increasing revenue and makes it easier to pay, just not sure if he is willing to manage all of that.

As others have said, we already support most of the relevant cryptos that you'd want to use to buy things:

We support payment in Bitcoin (BTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Ethereum (ETH), Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), Dogecoin (DOGE), and 5 USD-pegged stablecoins (GUSD, USDC, PAX, DAI, and BUSD)

If you're concerned about BTC or ETH fees being too high then I'd recommend converting your crypto into a different coin and paying with that. We aren't able to change which cryptos we support, it's all handled on BitPay's end.

Denied, thanks for the suggestion
