RE: Gridcoins.org is about to start payment processing, allowing to buy GRC with PayPal and Credit Cards
Sweet, I will definitely try it when it becomes available!
You only mentioned being able to buy in your original post, but in this comment you mention selling. Will you be able to sell as well?
Well, in order to buy, someone needs to sell, right?
I will start with some of mine initial coins, then the strategy is:
Result: Increased trades on exchangers, increased number of Fiat->GRC = deflation.
The cost is going to be a bit higher then the GRC value due to conversion costs, but definitely lower then 'VirWox' approach, as I am not going to generate profit.
In the later stages, other crypto -> grc will be also enabled, allowing to completely close the circle and allow trading in both directions.
The reasons why not doing it now, is not having enough fiat / crypto cash flow, and the demand for selling is probably more then for buying, which will directly cause an inflation. (not only with GRC but with any crypto allowed to convert to fiat directly assuming there are more crypto-> fiat then opposite direction).
In short, conversion in both direction is going to be allowed in later stages, but it would never be allowed that grc->fiat, exceeds fiat->grc.
We will need to play a bit dirty here :) But in principle, the is very similar to steem economy.
