How to Accept Cryptocurrency Payments with Tilda

20 years ago the idea of creating a website and running an online business was almost unthinkable, firstly because of the lack of tools and secondly because of the difficulty of creating a website at that time, the only method was to code everything by hand with good old html and css, so to have a website you had to pay someone or learn to code.
