Title: Purchase US postage with Bitcoins Post by: ataranlen on May 07, 2011, 01:22:36 AM I've thought up an idea, and I wanted to see what kind of interest there would be in the community.
Selling postage. A lot of people ship stuff they sold for bitcoins, but they then have to pay for the shipping using whatever local currency they use. The theory is, they pay in Bitcoins, I buy shipping for them using USD and email link to PDF of prepaid label! Problem USPS?
