I signed up and paid for a hostgator plan. They wanted me to send in two pieces of ID which I did. Just becuase of the domain name, the fraud department contacted me asking the following:

Fraud Prevention Department Then just hours later, before I even had a chance to respond they send me this:
hostgator.com refunded $142.77 USD from your purchase on September 9, 2018.They refunded my money and refused me service. Talk about ignorance and prejudice. Does anyone know of a hosting company that's crypto friendly? Thanks in advance.
