Since far back as the 80s, e-commerce has proven to be a very competitive market as much as the physical offline market. The rise of e-commerce companies such as Amazon, Alibaba, Jumia has shown the limitless potentials held by this online venture. Almost 90% of the human population above 16-year-old have ordered one thing or the other from an online store. Cryptocurrency has always sought to find it's way into every aspect of transactions that exist. Today we witness dozens of projects aiming at integration of Fiat-Cryptocurrency exchanges as well conversions between currencies in order to foster the adoption of cryptocurrency as a mean of payment across all platform irrespective of which currency the user holds.
I came across a post recently by 
It is only a matter of time now before the much talked about cryptocurrency becomes a standard means of payment across every major platform we know. You will soon be able to buy groceries, pay for a movie ticket, even buy gumballs with cryptocurrency. The reason behind this is not far-fetched. With Cryptocurrency, there are many advantages to enjoy including:
The value of Bitcoin in the field of E-commerce and online payments is promising, after all. Whether the ease of money transfer, less paperwork involvement, highly secure, the efficiency of currency type transfer from one to another, or other abovementioned benefits over traditional money transfers; digital currencies like Bitcoin are helping both private users and online merchants to experience a whole new world of monetary exchange with complete ease.

Despite the progress and current achievement cryptocurrency has made since it's inception, it is quite necessary to point out some issues that hinder the full adoption of cryptocurrency in the commercial world. Some merchants as well other platforms are yet to allow cryptocurrency as a means of payment and their reason can be attributed to the highly volatile nature of cryptocurrency. We witnessed a jaw-dropping decline in the value of bitcoin at the beginning of this year, this event has raised fears and doubts in the hearts of prospective users, while cryptocurrencies generally try to get stabilized, it is important to note that this volatility does not only affect the cost of purchasing a product or service, it also affects the transaction fees involved in doing so. While the transaction fees for dealing in cryptocurrency is low, it is quite unstable and not fixed.
Another surprising reason why cryptocurrency has not been fully accepted as a means of payment is the concept of viewing cryptocurrency as an asset rather than a digital currency. The first time I heard about cryptocurrency from a friend was that I could 'invest' in some coins and leave it to grow. Many individuals are also leaving their coins to grow and are not willing to spend it as a means of payment during transactions. Despite the highlighted issues, the benefit of using cryptocurrency as means of payment far outweighs the issues at hand, benefits such as freedom in payments, relatively low transaction fees, security, speed and global access to transaction around the world are reasons enough for traders to accept crypto as a means of payment.
