I will not advise that a business accept crypto currencies as a mode of payment for goods, products, and services when there are not generally accepted yet for business transactions and other type of trading activities in many countries. It is still a little bit reasonable to accept like 20% payments with trusted cryptos only and even with that, it is highly risky. Originators of these coins aren't known and they are still anonymous. If a day comes and everything disappears, imagine the disaster. Also imagine a business which been accepting payments that way.

I don't advice a new business owner to receive payment through Bitcoin because the rate of Bitcoin can drop and can lead to loss of money

Receiving payments through Bitcoin will definitely lead to short down in business.

The number of vendors that are accepting cryptocurrency has continued to grow over the last few years, however there are still quite a few that do not accept cryptocurrencies and many more that have not even considered it in the first place. When someone opens a new business there is capital that is needed and then need to try and establish themselves within the community. By accepting cryptocurrencies you are generally opening up your customer base to a whole new group of people who are solely relying on cryptocurrency. And if you are a vendor that is able to expand globally you'll find the cryptocurrency reach globally is much preferred as well as a form of payment.

Do you think that it is advisable however for a new business to accept cryptocurrency given the volatility of it and the risk that comes to them as well having not been established within their field or community? Would you accept cryptocurrency if you just have to start off a business right now?
