Accept Altcoins, especially privacy focused coins (Monero, Alias, etc.) Dropped

Unless I'm sorely mistaken, PIA currently accepts Bitcoin. However, BTC is not as anonymous as it could be and, PIA being a service that focuses on providing greater privacy for its customers (in the form of a VPN), I think it's a good idea to also accept forms of payment that are themselves designed to provide more privacy to their users. In this case, Monero, Alias, and a few other coins.

Information regarding accepting Monero can be found here:

Information regarding accepting Alias can be found here:
https://alias.cash/alias-accepted-everywhere/

My understanding is that it's a bit easier to start accepting Alias as a merchant than it is to start accepting Monero, but I could be mistaken. Regardless, I'd like to see PIA accept at least one of these coins, if not both, as forms of payment.
