I have just opened an account in usecryptos

Not sure where to post this as I see there is about 3 or 4 threads about this same site.....

Some suggestions:

1) Would it not be better to set the price of each item in say US$ when uploading it and then have that price displayed and updated in btc?

When I upload a photo I decide on a price, let's say $2.00. At today's rate that might be 0.01 btc.

Over the next week the price of bitcoin goes up with say 30% making the selling price of my photo now $2.60 which might be to expensive in my opinion. This results in me having to readjust all my prices. However, if the selling price was based off a fixed 'fiat' value no such adjustment will be required.

2) Display the selling price of each item in both bitcoin and fiat (US$)

I know this is a bitcoin driven site but in reality we all price items in fiat and so will the buyers who visit this site. Its far easier to determine the value of an item in say US$ than it is in bitcoin. Also saves me the hassle of pulling a calculator out each time so that I can work out what the actual dollar value of an item is.

We would all love to live in a bitcoin dominated world but reality is that we price items in fiat.
