The problem is how will they know if there is a demand on their products from their customer?
In addition to what
@Yogee posted, they could send out electronic questionnaires to their previous customers and also do in-person/face-to-face surveys.
I pretty much envision how this will go, GM will be bombarded with millions of tweets about accepting bitcoin, it will implement it, and then in one year they are going to see at best 10 sales in BTC and they will decide to close it down as there is no actual demand.
I completely agree with you, but I don't think there's any harm in keeping that option alive for potential buyers
[unless I'm missing something].
- Regardless of the demand, it's always better if they could offer more options for purchasing their cars.The other main point is with btc in their reserve they can make easy profits like Tesla did with selling 10% of their initial investment making millions.With this they don't need to make huge investment as they will get it in the form of payment from customers also.So it will be wise move on their part to consider this.
AFAIK, they never looked into the investment side of
BTCitcoin...
This is great news for Bitcoin. We need to see how Bitcoin reacts to this!
It looks like it didn't have any impact
