Time for some accounting:

- Bitpay: $7k minus 0,99% = U$ 6.930,70 in merchant's bank account the next day (Zero Fraud Risk);

- Credit Cards: $7k minus 3,70% minus $14 (assuming 140 transactions of U$ 50,00 on average) = U$ 6.727,00 (Risk of Fraud and Chargebacks up to 6 months later).

Basically, U$ 203,70 more and no chargeback risk.

I think Charlie drank most of that $7k before the interview, he looked wasted!

$7,000 is a lot more than I would have imagined in such a short time

Nice coverage of Charlie and co.'s bar in New York taking bitcoins.

Will that be cash, charge or robo-money?

After years of being relegated to a seedy online market, Bitcoin is creeping into the mainstream — including a Midtown lounge that began accepting the digital currency as a method of payment recently and has since racked up $7,000 in electro-cash revenues.
