This is interesting. Could you give more detailed information? Volume in BTC vs. volume in $?

This was my first thought as well. They have tons of merchants using them, but I don't think a big percentage are high volume. So it could easily be that 50% of merchants keep some bitcoin, but only 2% of volume is kept that way.

Definitely important. A merchant could be an anti-government bead jewelry maker doing $75 a month, or Microsoft. They each count one.
