When I created Swagnilla Ice, I wanted to build a company that was accessible, forward-thinking, and ready to grow with my community. Today, I’m announcing two important changes that reflect that vision.
A New Way to Pay in the Swagnilla Ice Shop
I’m excited to introduce a new payment option for all digital goods and services in the Swagnilla Ice shop: cryptocurrency! I understand that not everyone uses or has access to traditional payment methods like PayPal. By offering a crypto payment option through my partner, Coinbase, I’m giving you more choice and making my shop more accessible to a global audience.
Here’s how it works:
- When you choose to pay with crypto at checkout, the Coinbase system automatically handles the conversion. The price of your purchase, originally in Canadian Dollars (CAD), is automatically converted to the real-time equivalent in your chosen cryptocurrency.
- I’ll accept any cryptocurrency that Coinbase supports.
- All crypto payments are instantly and automatically converted to USDC, which keeps prices stable and protects Swagnilla Ice from market volatility.
A New Direction for Video Content
In my efforts to evolve and focus on the future, I’m making a change to my content strategy. I will no longer embed the “news and announcement” video series of the past on blog posts. Instead, I want to embed announcements directly into blog posts like this one to keep all of my news in a single, easy-to-find location. I’m still excited about creating future video content, but these will likely be singular posts rather than series based on a modpack. This will allow me to put more creative energy into other video projects for my future community.
