I see Germanys blockchain bank Bitwala is working on a prepaid debit card for BTC and Altcoins. Thats a possible solution. You can pay everywhere if visa is available too. Thats a concept I like.

Ok, a seller can't choose which currency to receive but the buyer is able to choose which currency (which coin) he will pay with.

Maybe Bitpay will help, but you are looking for something that does not exist. You have to combine a couple services and if you need a working BTC balance for business that will be fun.

The commerce will come in as both FIAT and BTC and then you can move that BTC to an exchange for changing to another coin, if you like losing money.

Well you just need an address, can't you just install a wallet like Jaxx, generate addresses in multiple currencies and list them in your product listings?
That would work if you didn't sell many items so you could easy tell which payment was for which sale. The problem is if you're selling lots of $10 items and you're receiving lots of $10 payments to your wallet you wouldn't necessarily know which payment was for which sale.

What about Shopify or one of these plugins?

I don't know anything about them so I don't know if they're reliable.

Guessing you haven't heard about "OpenBazzar" then? Wink

https://www.openbazaar.org - "A FREE ONLINE MARKETPLACE. NO FEES. NO RESTRICTIONS. EARN BITCOIN"

Heard about but Im not familiar with open bazaar. Seems as if you are not able to receive altcoins, right?

You'd have to to create your own trading platform as you don't control payment methods on Ebay or Alibaba.
You can always sell things on this forum instead.

Seems to be a gap in the market of e-commerce platforms.
USE API of blockchain.info and create trading platform. BTC have so many API. I think, if you have any knowledge in programming you can make it.

I want to sell my things on eBay or Alibaba but want to choose which currency I will receive!

For example: I don't want to get USD but BTC or any other cryptocurrency. I don't want to be forced to take USD.
I want to be free to choose whatever I want.

Ist there any platform like this out there or has it to be created?
