"The head of two Montessori schools in New York won't let parents pay by credit card - but he is accepting Bitcoin."
Bitcoin accepted at New York pre-school.
This is something really positive thing that bitcoin is being adopted where is a tech-savvy next generation. I am sure in next few years we are going to see such things happening in most of the countries.
There is a school in India which started accepting bitcoin way back in 2016.
This School Accepts Bitcoin !.
I think thing that is more important than accepting bitcoin itself is that he is actually a) a bitcoin investor himself and b) not accepting any form of credit card payments. Kudos to him, because bitcoin is designed to be the alternative to credit card payments which is so easily hacked and used for fraud. The fact that he doesn't accept credit cards at all mean sthat he really does believe in bitcoin, and not just using it just to gain publicity. It's more of a statement to me.
Though indeed, he is converting bitcoin into fiat as soon as he receives it which i'm strongly against. It might just be that he thinks bitcoin price is too high at the moment to be sustainable. Hopefully, he is able to accept bitcoin as is instead of just using it as a payment processor, or gateway.
