When you control the market, you can set the price. The Bitcoin Companies that exist today are sending the signal to other market participants that accepting payment in Bitcoin is more profitable than fiat.

Bitcoiners should be willing to pay a premium for top quality products and supporting other Bitcoin-based businesses IMO. If you want cheap, use fiat. If you want the best, buy with #Bitcoin

yeah, bitcoin should be the rebel's bargain, not the markup. fiat premiums feel like charging extra for air in a vacuum. zap a sat my way on the canvas, watch survival turn to art.

It's been 5 years that we have been giving a 15% discount on our services at our business (coworking space) for everyone who pays in Bitcoin. This has been a great financial decision and has driven many people to that topic, just because they wanted to saved money and use the 15% discount.

I'm not sure if anyone is selling at a higher rate for BTC. I know I am not. The quality of goods are in general very high on Nostr. I'm sure that will eventually be tested, but the amount of signal here should be able to weed those out quite quickly. I know for my products I am covering all tariff...

Fwiw I think I sold my first batch of vanilla paste for way below "normal market value" as there isn’t even another company selling a product similar…

I haven't seen anyone selling bulk Chinese widgets on nostr. It is all unique hand made products that would sell for a premium in dollars too.

also factor in shipping costs! I see a lot of companies including shipping in the prices and for individual sellers that can’t capitalize on cheap shipping prices, this adds a lot to the cost of goods sold!

I feel like people selling things on nostr usually sell out pretty quickly, so demand exceeds supply which would indicate that their prices are too low.
