I have funds outside of Bitcoin, do you think a service where I buy for things that only accept real cash i.e https://g2a.com, amazon.com or anything else. And I receive Bitcoin?
Obviously escrow can be used, or people can pay upfront, whatever the case is.

Bottom line, is this a good idea?

This can be good idea but there are some websites such as purse.io and... that are your rivals and you should do a good market research at the first.

I don't think they want to pay you out in coins. because its difficult to get them,
 and much easier to give you money instead of a bit coin.

I think its pretty nice but keep in mind steam will accept the bitcoin very soon so less more people will be interested in my eyes.
Maybe it could still be profitable of course because some games are cheaper on g2a.

i dont think this is a good idea why would they give you bit coins if someone else pay with cash.
they can get more profit out of it when they keep the coin and give you the cash.
so they can store all of the coins and sell them later.

Not sure if I get exactly what's your idea but if you will be accepting fiat money from CCs, Paypal and even cash, you should be very careful about scammers.

If it is the other way around, then I think it's much easier and definitely a good idea, just make them pay upfront as you said and it should be no problem. The only issue I see is that I'm not sure how many people will use your service. If they already have Bitcoin, they surely got it by purchasing it via CCs, bank accounts, etc.

No no, I accept fiat and sell in BTC. For example if you wanted a game from g2a.com you could give me the BTC and I buy with fiat and we do a transaction like that.
wow didn't know buying a game with bitcoins on g2a was real since when?
never ever heard about it i think many people wants to buy their games with online bitcoins

They wont let you do that it's only more work for them and maybe its a profit for them.
if you're paying someone with coins he received money and the server keeps the coins. only that system will maybe be ok.

This is a bad idea, there is trust issue on this kind of deal. Better not to be in that kind of  service.

Steam now is accepting bitcoins when ever you buy their games.

I don't think that they like your idea because there is not any profit for them is they
just give you bitcoins instead of the real money maybe otherwise it will be much better for them. Only if the coin is rising.

otherwise you kinda give a tip.  but if it's a huge amount, i think there is nothing in between to pursue such transaction.  maybe some friend's of yours are gonna bite on that.  Smiley

The idea is a litte bit vague if you ask me.
What are buying with you  real cash? Bitcoins or goods/items?
If it is bitcoins, then how is this better/faster then local bitcoins?

If is goods, how is this better then the usual escrow?

As for the problems for OP`s orginal post for transactions.

Depending on how they approach it, I would say they would have to use a escrow friendly service outside from this forum where others can easily deposit their money.

Or they know someone on this forum thats been around and use their escrow service of +14 rep or higher.

Anything digital has a re-course from both sides which is why the escrow needs to come in - incase the source of the game was not stolen/hacked/etc.

It would be okay if you ask me, it would not be optimal but it would be okay without any doubts.
If you are trusted and you are offering good things it can be done.

This can be good idea but there are some websites such as purse.io and... that are your rivals and you should do a good market research at the first.
The best thing that you can do with Bitcoin now is that you have to make it more popular and that is really important because not that many people will get to know about it so that have to change.
But of course it will be nice if there will be more people that is going to use Bitcoin and that would be nice also for Bitcoin itself.

I am very happy with the growth of the cryptocurrency. If you saw my recent post, digital collectable items such as CS:GO skins are being sold with Bitcoin (Very big market)

That's good idea of making money without investment, but when it comes to real-time execution you won't get profit as calculated. Acting as an intermediary between customer and traders will get you profit with those who opt for payment through bitcoin. Now only very little people know about bitcoin so it's not that profitable.

Yes for me its one of the good idea.. and i think you can increase your earnings there because g2a has a affiliate  bonus reward for every person you refer..  try to contact the owner and try business with them with bitcoin for the for the affiliate reward. you are just bought games there using paypal funds and the bonus should be added to you because you promoting it too to other people..

It would be a pretty good idea but I think if big company's will step in with such things you will not be used anymore for hits due to the fact it can be bought directly.
