Will the merchandise have to be bought exclusively using GBT, or just as an option, together with USD?
DailyModo, mind leaving a comment on this? What is the plan? This greatly influences the future value of the coin.
Yes, merchandise will be
purchasable with GBT some examples of merchandise we may have in the future such as t-Shirts, Sweaters, Steam Gift Cards, etc. We are open to ideas for merchandise and when were at this stage in our product well be polling the community about what their preferences are in this regards

That was not really my question. You said that in the ANN post already. What I am interested in is, will the merchandise be purchasable with other payment methods as well, such as CC or Paypal?
You do realize, that valuation of a coin and valuation of a company are 2 entirely different things? GBT is a CRYPTO CURRENCY, that has some backing from a company, consider it A BONUS. It's not a stock, it's not a share, it's just a coin with a fixed supply, and most of it was sold for a $100k. If SUPPLY were to dry up and if there is DEMAND - the price will rise. It's as simple as that.
I completely agree. That's why I am trying to figure out what the future demand may be, but you guys are trying to avoid clearly answering that question it seems?!
