Do I need Bitcoin to buy this guide?

No — Bitcoin is optional. USDC, the dollar-pegged stablecoin, works exactly the same way at checkout. And if you don’t hold crypto yet, card payment will be added when our processor approval is complete. Until then, the bankless road is open — here is the 4-step guide.

When do I receive the PDF after payment?

As soon as the network confirms. Once the payment is confirmed on the blockchain (usually within minutes), the delivery email is sent automatically. Your download link is valid for 7 days and allows 5 downloads.
