    If BTC price fluctuations are worrisome then just use Books that will convert to cash... Heritage for example

    The main utility of the concept is for easy money transfer.

    Just because people don't want to speculate on it does not mean it is not for them.

    I hope 5D's willingness to support BitCoin encourages others to do it.

    Apparently 5D values a certain demographic (forgive the sweeping generalization but let's call it the US and other people who value anonymity over fiscal security) and it provides enough volume to outweigh some major negatives. Not a path for all books to follow.
