Bitcoin - The Currency of the Internet
A community dedicated to Bitcoin, the currency of the Internet. Bitcoin is a distributed, worldwide, decentralized digital money. Bitcoins are issued and managed without any central authority whatsoever: there is no government, company, or bank in charge of Bitcoin. You might be interested in Bitcoin if you like cryptography, distributed peer-to-peer systems, or economics. A large percentage of Bitcoin enthusiasts are libertarians, though people of all political philosophies are welcome.

How do Bitcoin retailers manage risk given the volatility?
Given the higher volatility of Bitcoin, how can such a business operate? - When a client comes to exchange say canadian dollars for Bitcoin, once completed, does the retailer immediately log into their online exchange account and offset the transaction? In other words, if the retailer charges a 6% markup on the spot price, as soon as the transaction is completed, does he close his exposure right away? - If they wait until the end of the day, allowing the business to benefit from the buyers of BTC and sellers of BTC, offsetting each other and only settling the difference at the end of the day on an online Bitcoin exchange, this involves considerable risk (Bitcoin might of moved a few percentages intraday...maybe by more than the retailers markup). Is anyone familiar with the risk model?

Open Bitcoin Store: More than 30 new free bitcoin-enabled stores were launched since our new wizard made it a twenty second effort. You can now become a bitcoin retailer for free, today.
OpenBitcoinStore is a not-for-profit, community driven effort to equip anyone who wants with a bitcoin enabled online store. We host the stores for free and have built a wizard that makes it incredibly easy. Our primary audience is a non-technical person who want to start earning bitcoin by selling products or services. Since bitcoin is not an easy technology (yet), we set out on a mission to make it trivial for everyone. The end result of that effort was the launch on Monday of a Store Wizard, that makes it completely trivial. Here's a screenshot of the wizard: http://i.imgur.com/CXchyQ9.png As you can see, all you need is to pick a store name, title, subtitle and give us your email address. Nothing else, no credit cards, addresses or personal information. Click "Launch" and less than 20 seconds later you can open your store's login page and log in as the administrator. OpenBitcoinStore is a lot more than just a launch wizard though! We offer guidance and instructions for each step of the process, helping you create products, price them and sell them. More importantly, since the beginning of this project, we have become a community of store owners and volunteers, helping each other with advice, support and encouragement. Every day, several store owners and volunteers hang out on our IRC channel #openbitcoinstore on freenode, and help each other. Since Monday, 37 stores were created with the Store Wizard. Not all of them are public or listed in our directory yet, they are still being "stocked" by the owners, adding products and pictures and text. But each day, this project brings out more and more bitcoin entrepreneurs creating a community. We hope you will join us in this effort. If you want to open a store, you could be started in less than a minute. Visit our site at openbitcoinstore.com. Our entire operation is funded exclusively by donations, so please donate if you think this project is a positive force for the bitcoin community. Join us!
[uncensored-r/Bitcoin] Retailer Overstock mixed up bitcoin and bitcoin cash, letting customers buy items at a steep disc...
The following post by rmvaandr is being replicated because some comments within the post(but not the post itself) have been silently removed. The original post can be found(in censored form) at this link: np.reddit.com/ Bitcoin/comments/7perrj The original post's content was as follows:
Regardless, and especially for larger transactions, Bitcoin has remained a frontrunner for the cheapest option. Although Bitcoin has matured, so to speak, its volatility in particular still remains a contentious issue. It’s understandable that retailers and merchants would prefer a risk-averse approach when it comes to their profitability.

Every visitor to Buy Bitcoin Worldwide should consult a professional financial advisor before engaging in such practices. When a Bitcoiner is asked who accepts Bitcoin, then very often Overstock will be the first company to come to mind. In January of 2014, Overstock became one of the first retailers worldwide to start accepting Bitcoin, which its users can still use today to buy any product on the platform. As expected, this is just a small number of individual online stores and retailers that accept Bitcoin as a form of payment. However, the ones mentioned in our list are well-established stores with good popularity and good community backing, which means that they are very safe options. In fact, of the five major retailers that were dealing in digital currencies, only three remain, with Microsoft beginning to phase out purchases with bitcoin. Transactions Aren’t Taxed--Yet
