India bans cash - causes problems for small businesses.

In another example of why it is better to buy rugs with Bitcoin, here is a message i received today from one of our suppliers:

"Would like to tell you that due to the demonetization policies of our Prime minister Mr Modi .
We are totally out of cash .
Leather was ordered and we could not pay the supplier in cash so he is still holding the leather with him for want of cash as leather for one piece can be bought in cash only they dont accept cheques .
the govt is only allowing us cash for 4000 Rs which is approx 50 GBP a week which we are spending in basic necessities .
It may be a month that the cash situation is restored and we are able to buy again .
though it appears too be a good move for black money etc but we are totally screwed up for the want of cash.
Waiting for the new currency to be distributed by the banks so that we can proceed with our daily business ."

India operates largely as a cash economy. What were they thinking ?!

Time to adopt Bitcoin as a superior form of money. That is why we offer 10% off for anyone who pays for rugs with Bitcoin.

Rugs for bitcoin - why, how and what?

So what is bitcoin? To put it out easy - its a digital currency that is not controlled by the state. It is the modern way of paying. You dont need banks for it. You are your own bank. And its easy to use once you have had a look into how to start using it. As we see it, the increased use of bitcoin will put the power with the people instead of the banks and will make the world a better place. We at the Realrugcompany, want to help promote bitcoin, so therefore we offer a 10% discount for people that choose this payment option. 

For those of you that are not familiar with bitcoin - we offer a FAQ on our site. Anyone should be able to use it.

We have also completely redesigned our website so it is easier to use and to find the rug you need. Most rugs are available in many colours and sizes. We only use natural materials. The rugs are produced in good factories that have nice working conditions and doesnt use harsh chemicals. We even have organically treated sheepskins from Iceland.
