One can also pay through ACH, so it's not like they're completely cut off from the traditional financial systems.

It would be interesting to know what percentage of their users use each payment method.

Sure, and to be clear, the payment experience with cryptocurrency is still pretty terrible.

That being said, it's getting better quite quickly and you're now seeing big tech players like Stripe enter the market.[1]
