UKMark, for what it’s worth, I think the SMSWallet is a great idea. One problem might be that Americans don’t know what an sms is.

American here. I text (SMS) every day. I’d venture to say more people text now than ever. However, more and more people are moving away from SMS and to something like WhatsApp and WeChat. I do live in Silicon Valley… so, that too can affect it.

Oh yeah. When twitter launched at SxSW all those years ago, THE way to use it was to have it SMS you your tweets. We would use this to then do impromptu tweet-ups: “I’m at Bodega in Santa Monica, anyone wanna join me for a glass of wine?” and by the end of the evening, you’d be rolling 30 deep. No lie.

Then everyone and their mother started hopping on the twitter bandwagon and posting what they were eating for dinner, and the utility plummeted, so everyone went back to SMS’ing eachother directly. But we’ve been SMS addicts for a while now.

Got a nice e-mail from wesphily about taking LTC.

We have no problem taking FTC, except it’s kind of hard to determine a price.

I guess someone can just contact me either here or through the “Contact Us” link on the bottom of the site telling me what domains they want to register or renew and I can send them an offer in FTC good for a limited time, probably just a few hours until the price stabilizes at BTCE.

The dollar price for most domains is $15. People in the bitcointalk forum were whining that that is too much, but it’s the standard price at GoDaddy, though they advertise their intro discounted price and charge you more the 2nd year. The markup is low and we’re not lowering the price for whiners, who are problem customers we don’t want anyway.

We offer a lot of services along with the domain registration, we have a lot of customers who came to us from GoDaddy for our service. We also have loyal customers who have been with us for more than a decade.

You mentioned Bitcointalk and whining in the same sentence, I can tell you’ve spent some time there. :) We absolutely appreciate the opportunity to work with you. Our merchants services and PR team will be working on a plan to announce all the new businesses we work with in the next few weeks. This draws attention to the coin but also those that are willing to work with our community.

Thank you once again.
