Do they keep the Btc? Or they'll dump the btc on us Rakuten uses Bitnet (a Bitpay competitor) to process Bitcoin payments. Meaning that the customer who opts for that payment method gets redirected to a Bitnet page that displays the total USD price converted to BTC. The customer sends his BTC to Bitnet, then Bitnet sends dollars to Rakuten USA's bank account. Eventually Bitnet sells the BTC somewhere to replenish their dollar reserves. hence you're promoting them  Smart guy there.  Actually it also has the benefit of burning a few million dollars of Bitnet's capital to subsidize the dumping. |

States never go broke. I would be surprised if greece ever default and leave the ruro. More likely is some form of central bank mediated sent jubilee. |
