Title: Anypay’s CEO Says Bitcoin is Worthless For Payment; Disables BTC Payment

Listen to this - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcMZarXA4fc

I just LOL'ed at this fool, how can he tell that BTC is worthless as payment just because they have been double-spend?

We all know that is it not BTC's fault, I also have some inclination about this CEO, it looks like he is a shill of Roger Ver's Bitcoin Cash.

 Surprise surprise!
He's not just a shill, he's the vice-president of shill.

I haven't even heard of this payment processor, does this mean he is a shill? No but bcash taking their top spot? Probably means they work with the bcash community and the dweebs over there, i doubt this is a decent payment processor.

Yeah, first time that I heard this payment processor as well, I don't know when did they set up Bitcoin as payment scheme and say that it is "just under 1% of payments". We all have our doubts here, and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) taking their top spot? And just look at the replies for their tweet, look at the BCH shills, just laughable.

And if they wanted to challenge and be on the top spot of being a crypto payment processor, dropping Bitcoin is not the right thing to do.

I really wouldn't be surprised if Roger Ver is an investor or at least somewhat affiliated with this payment processor. Doesn't matter though, as I don't think much people use their product in the first place anyway lol. Not to mention that what professional business would post such a thing on Twitter?

What is Anypay anyway? While in 2020, we are seeing that the transaction volume of bitcoin doubled, now this fool comes to tell that BCH has taken the top spot. Rrad the article below,

https://thenextweb.com/hardfork/2020/01/16/satoshi-nakaboto-bitcoin-trading-volume-now-over-double-the-yearly-average/

It seems like Anypay works only with BCH community and Roger had invested a good amount of money to keep these shills well fed. Will be a grace to ignore!

He's probably not wrong. If the payment processor itself is a fan of BCH then I'm not surprised if the customers are led to believe BCH is better for them, or if they're a fan of BCH since the beginning.

A tweet with less than 100 RT shouldn't be a problem.

the shitcoin advertisers are so stupid that they don't even know how to advertise their shitcoin. only a stupid person would ever choose bcash over bitcoin simply because bcash has zero security since they can reverse any transaction in any block they want as they did it recently by reversing a third party individual miner's block with their centralized power.

These kinds of attacks will only prove how strong Bitcoin really is. These types of companies will continue to lose customers and revenue until they are forced to:

A) Start accepting Bitcoin again.
B) Shut down the company.

Look at Bitpay. They tried forcing people to use BIP-70, resulting in people stop using their payment gateway. They recently announced that they're dropping BIP-70.

Some worthless startups with barely any users that targets shitcoiners as their main userbase now attacks Bitcoin - is it even surprising? We've seen things like that already with companies associated with Roger Ver or Bitmain spreading FUD against Bitcoin. Sooner or later they will all go broke, cause no one will use bcash and other shitcoins, and they sabotaged themselves by abandoning Bitcoin.

Who would have used fiat if they used to get bonus for using BTC? That's how their BCH usage increased. Shill everywhere.
This shit anypay is giving kind of cashback bonus on Dash and BCH payment. Hmm, that was a big deal of ShitCash  :D

Am not always surprise to see talks from some CEOs because they have been involved in some of these shitcoins creation under a disguise. I begin to wonder if Bitcoin cash is now better than Bitcoin itself, and somebody is here promoting a coin with origin known to be "shillingcoin". Poor advertisement  ;D

This is just a marketing ploy for Bitcoin Cash, and their shill, Lol. And good timing as well,  the good thing is that we already see what the motives from saying that bitcoin is a worthless payment. Even the reddit release is perfectly setup. So I will echo the sentiments of the community here, no surprises at all.

A non shill payment processor would have to be brave to take it on unless they're ordered to or have some type of private double spend compensation deal with Roger and Bitmain such as Bitpay probably have.

BCH has been 51% attacked, even if it was a 'friendly' one. That would be enough for me to drop it forever.

Business needs to work with stats that benefits them. If the payment for that particular business through bitcoin is below 1%, it's really worthless for them.
Though his understanding about mineable coins seems to be poor. Double spending is not a everyday threat and could be solved just by waiting a few confirmations.

I haven't heard of them either, and if that frohawk'ed fruit is the spokesperson for a company then I think I just woke up on the wrong side of the Bizarro World bed.  Is that a payment system for Grindr hookups or something?

Anywho, if you're a company that thinks accepting bitcoin is untenable or that bitcoin is worthless as a payment method, you're not doing something right because there are 1) corporations that have accepted bitcoin for years, and 2) payment processors that make it happen.  I think this guy needs a lesson about quite a few things, but I'll leave it at that.

Well, sounds like ANYPag should be more like BCash pay. It's just ridiculous that somebody would go as far as to make such counterproductive statements in a payment processor, counter to their own business interests even. It only makes sense when you take a look at the person's background.

Since he seems so j stable and is willing to be so reckless with his business I think any statement coming from him is unreliable. But most importantly, the statements about BTC's payment abilities hold zero value, especially given that the processor had a reportedly faulty implementation.

I think he wants to say that bitcoin is not worth paying, but bitcoin is worth as investment so we can use the other coins for payment, and hold bitcoin for a long time. If he chooses BCH for the payment and disables bitcoin for the payment, it is no problem for us because we can still use crypto to pay something. We have so many alternative coins to make a transaction, and we can use altcoin than bitcoin, and we are free to decide which coin we want to use.

companies like this are already hemorrhaging money specially with the high cost of advertisement that they have. but they won't go under any time soon because they mostly make money through alternative ways and then spend that money in their sinking ship because it helps make those alternatives look more legit. in this case bcash.

Bitcoin Cash took the top spot in their payment system? I don’t really think this is the truth, or maybe it just happened or he’s lying? Maybe he just made that up as a way to support Bitcoin Cash lol. Seriously, where do you even see anyone making use of Bitcoin Cash? I have never seen anyone ever make use of Bitcoin Cash for making payment or is there is something about Bitcoin Cash that I don’t know about?

Because, I’m very sure that the only cryptocurrency I see people use for payment is Bitcoin and that’s what most companies are even accepting. Another coin that I have seen people use is Ethereum and apart from that there is no other. It seems Craig Wright wants to promoste their shits at all possible means and just promoting but by spreading FUDs on bitcoins. I am not sure how many new crypto adopters would had been misled by those.

Roger Ver is clearly involved in this. I do not believe that this CEO expressed his personal opinion about Bitcoin, calling him unfit only because of the double-spend lol

Bitpay offers it as an option. There would've been plenty of Bitcoin holders who got it for free who went on a free money spending spree. Who wouldn't? I'm not sure what portion of payment processing Bitpay have but it must still be extremely high.
