Some bad news came out.
Roblox Debunks 'Inaccurate' XRP Support Claims, Says Crypto Payments Not Allowedhttps://decrypt.co/202077/roblox-debunks-inaccurate-xrp-claims-says-crypto-payments-not-allowed“Xsolla now accepts XRP with BitPay as a payment method for their games such as Smite and Roblox,” BitPay wrote in a now-deleted post. “You can use your favorite cryptocurrency to buy, play, and enjoy gaming like never before,” the post claimed.
The problem here is, Bitpay is the one who tweeted it so it should be a reliable source. So, what the heck is happening?
When asked why the tweet was deleted, BitPay CMO Bill Zielke told Decrypt via email: “There was an error in the tweet. We will have more tweets about merchants accepting crypto in the near future. Stay tuned.”
Xsolla also stated that it had nothing to do with the now-deleted BitPay post. According to Xsolla’s website, the tech firm provided a gift card solution for Roblox in 2020 and is listed as a payment provider on Roblox’s website for credit card charges. Xsolla also provides payment solutions for numerous other gaming companies like Valve, Twitch, Epic Games, and Krafton, to name a few.
Why would Bitpay make such an error?
The mistake of Cointelegraph about the Bitcoin Spot ETF just happened and now this. This ain't right, why are they trying to manipulate the market?
And a "sorry" should not be good enough. There are investors who would jump in with one news heard and how can they pull out if the market would suddenly be dumped? I am kind of angry about this type of strategy.
I am going to add this link to the first page so that no one will be a victim.
