Hey guys I greet everyone and hope we are doing good. Before I start firstly guys how do would you feel when during tithe and offering and you see the user passing Bitcoin wallet address to you to make payment into?
Personally I feel that the adoption level is increasing and that's all we have wanted right? But yet again I see a new business opportunity this churches are trying to exploit. We know how the Nigerian churches are significantly extorting their members all in the name of blessings (God blessings doesn't come with a price tag). I think using or a church having a Bitcoin wallet shows how desperate they are and would leave no stone unturned just to get funds out of members. What are your thoughts about it .
In some churches in Nigeria right now, you will find people talking about how their pastors are taking advantage of them to raise money for the church under the cover name of collecting tithes. However, in my opinion, accepting cryptocurrency at churches is not a problem.
Because In the modern day, tithes were paid to the church in a variety of ways, including with cowries, jewellery, iron bars, and other non-cash items. So, since the pastor has the ability to accept payment, I see introducing cryptocurrency as a tithe in the church as a new development.
We live in a new world, a world of cryptocurrencies, so accepting them in a church doesn't mean the pastor would start pressuring his followers to start paying tithes in cryptocurrencies.
