What about offering the payment option "bitcoin"?
I'm sure it will be a bit complicated but I'm sure it is worth it in the long run...

well, still have to use only paypal rather than credit card, or g-pay or apple-pay

In the not too distant future, we'll be making some significant improvements that will allow us to do cryptocurrencies. The question is, will it be a good idea. We have to look at the whole picture to determine that, but it seems a reasonable course of action so far. If we determine that we can do it safely, it may just happen.

The goal would be that Shannon is then invested in Bitcoin more easy in that way and can enjoy the increasing value.

We use our income to run the store and pay bills. Investing isn't the goal. I would love to have enough sales again to have money free to start "investing" in things like more advertising, developing new software, experimental and build options, etc. but the customers are the source of that, and lately, no matter what I do it's the core group keeping us afloat. Which I am very, very grateful for, but the time is not right for moving to cryptos as an option. That is under consideration for the future, and there are things like security and volatility to consider.

^ that. Like PayPal but it works. I would definitely pay every purchase in bitcoins.
