Accepting Crypto Payments vs. Holding Crypto as an Investment

When crypto comes up in conversation about your business, two very different things often get mixed together. Holding crypto means owning it as an asset, watching the price, and deciding when to sell. Accepting crypto means a customer pays in crypto, a processor converts it, and you receive dollars. This course covers the second one. For most small businesses, that is where the conversation actually starts. Before the next module, put the question this way: is the concern about owning crypto, or about receiving it as payment? Most of the worry about volatility belongs to the first. The second has already solved that problem.
