Bitcoins are valuable to merchants for the same reason anything else is valuable to merchants — they save money. Transaction fees sit around 1 percent for Bitcoin purchases, which is music to a small business’ ears. ‘Because there’s no central authority controlling Bitcoin — no Visa, no Amex — there’s no person owning it and the users can make the rates for themselves. And the owners have more or less settled on one percent,’ he told Forbes.”
