Sounds like shilling for Bitcoin. Even if we all sometimes pay exorbitant amounts for priority shipping, doesn't mean we want to do that and get _no reward_ because "Bitcoin." The fees on Bitcoin currently make it practically unusable. If you want to argue for edge cases, go ahead. But please don't try to give these edge cases any mediocrum of regularity and sensibility...

It seems like common sense, not shilling: if what you're buying is only available with Bitcoin, then you get more of a reward than when you pay for expensive shipping -- if you don't pay whatever the transaction fees end up being, then you won't get the product at all.

You don't get a reward when you buy something - you get your purchased goods. The mental yoga necessary to consider a purchased good as a reward is absolutely baffling.

there are barely products for sale with bitcoin much less bitcoin exclusive products. only things i can think of are ransoms and drugs. i'm sure there are others but this isn't super common.

Sure, it may not be common, but still, my point stands.

If you're buying some uncommon product that's only available with bitcoin, then paying a 30% transaction fee might be worth it versus not being able to purchase the product at all.

uh sure your point stands. pretty weak point? in obscure circumstances it might be worth performing the unappetizing act of paying bitcoin transaction fees to buy something.

Doesn't that use Monero or something, I don't know, not a big black market cryptocurrency drug connoisseur.
