This is great news, it is pretty pointless to use cryptocurrencies at all anyway since for Wikipedia:

> Crypto was around 0.08% of our revenue last year, and it remains one of our smallest revenue channels.

Remember that Wikipedia is one of the top 10 websites on the planet, I'm also assuming that other websites trying to accept crypto have even smaller percentages rendering cryptocurrencies as payment useless, not to mention damaging to the environment.

What is really happening is that nobody is using it for payments at all, rather just holding crypto coins and hoping they'll go up and speculating on the price.
