Although all of Székely's audio recordings can be purchased with bitcoin – costing the equivalent of $5 – the comedian said on his website that payment for his Live at Madison Square Garden performance would be available from $1 to $85, giving consumers the option to set their own price within these parameters.
Fans wanting to download the shows can also pay via PayPal, Amazon or Dwolla.

Solana CME Futures Fell Short of BTC and ETH Debuts, but There's a Catch
When adjusted for asset market capitalization SOL's relative futures volume looks better, K33 Research noted.
Lo que debes saber:
- Solana's SOL futures began trading on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) on Monday, with a notional daily volume of $12.3 million and $7.8 million in open interest, significantly lower than the debuts of bitcoin (BTC) and ether (ETH) futures.
- Despite the seemingly lackluster debut, when adjusted to market value, SOL's first-day figures are more in line with BTC's and ETH's, according to K33 Research.
- Despite the bearish market conditions, the launch of CME SOL futures offers new ways for institutions to manage their exposure to the token, said Joshua Lim of FalconX.
