I think those companies accept Bitcoin for their own benefit, not for supporting Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin is more popular now a days and a lot of people deal with it, so by accepting Bitcoin they can get new sales, they were able to accept it since long time but they did not.
In other case, we know that Fiverr had accepted Bitcoin then stepped back, because their experiment has failed due to the price fluctuate.

There is trouble abrewing
we need more of small products with bitcoin not things as big as a car or a computer and also not to mention expensive! and i am not sure about Apple, i think OP is mistaken.
if we can get places such as Amazon to accept bitcoin we can have some good days.

yes big players like microsoft apple will initiate the change.as they ignite the flame then other small scale company will start following them too and finally we have ha strong foundation base of bitcoin network and finally we will have laws for it and we could use it without and fear of getting banned by government.

Initiation of this change will have overall some positive effects in the market, the ease of using Bitcoin will be pretty good. It might reduce the possibility of strict negative action by Government, but I think fear of will be still there even if Bitcoin being accepted by industrialist to some extent.

I have not heard that Mercedes Benz accept bitcoins. Large companies always value their reputation and will not sell their products for unrecognized currency. There is a very huge fine. Maybe it's something the firm has done a publicity stunt?

Biggest companies accepted Bitcoin already, now Bitcoin will spread, more small businesses will accept Bitcoin.

Who have bought already?


P.S
Also Dell and Tesla accepting Bitcoin:

This news is not new to me because I have even read about it a while ago even on this forum that is about the Dell part but the others is what is new to me. If true then its a good thing at least we are now having good news coming from the corporate world and this could even to a large extent give the credibility for other businesses to start accepting then it will flow down to the store next house in a gradual way.

OP, your heading for this thread borders on clickbait... You have all these big companies in your subject, but Mercedes Benz does not accept

Bitcoin for anything. They are car manufacturers not car dealerships. They have sub-contracted most of their functions to other sub-contractors.

Apple does not accept Bitcoin, but I know Microsoft {X-box} does.  Huh What is the purpose of your thread?

it is big news, and it will probably make bitcoin prices rose to the height, moreover, that holds it is the largest firms and renowned in the world. I am sure, many people began to look at bitcoin as this.

It is awesome to see that companies are getting involved in the crypto market, but is there any proof of the MB acceptance to BTC ?

well, to me it's just a matter of time. bitcoin is growing fast now and debit card services like xapo already made possible to buy anything you want with bitcoin. With time, more and more companies will accept bitcoin directly.
just for curiosity, where did you saw this(mercedes/apple/microsoft accepting bitcoin)?

first time to heard that Mercedes accept bitcoin and finally more big companies accept bitcoin but as the bitcoiners i wish that would have good influence especially for the price because it would be useless if there are more companies concern more for bitcoin but the price dropped

Just as long as the representative of those brands are not anti-trump then they will do just fine.

Look at the sponsors of the The Rock and Stephen Curry. They are very vocal of being against what the Trump administration stands for and now their company who plasters them in Under Armor is paying the price now.
Stocks have plummpted for them due to their political views.
Those view should not be mixed in with your business ventures.
Let's get our heads out of asses their Rock & Steph Curry.
And keep politics out of the work space. What do you pay those hefty fees your PR people charge towards your brand recognition for? Roll Eyes

One person posts a topic filled with lies or incorrect information, can you register in Azure using bitcoin? can you register google cloud with bitcoin?
If a company directly deals with bitcoin/selling products to an anonymous buyer, though when you try to register the car no longer anonymous but still can be considered tax evasion unless they exchange the coins to fiat but still they need name and address of buyer.

He didn't say anything about buying anon though, but yeah sources would be nice. I've heard MS paused bitcoin payments after the crash to 600 but is planning to resume. The car dealerships or any other physical dealership currently accepting bitcoins do require all the details of the buyer, after all they're just using it as a normal currency and it will have to be documented for tax. Why this seems like a foreign concept to you is beyond me but taxing bitcoins have been going on for a while

This is good new if it is true. This are big companies and they accepting bitcoin is a big step. I just wished OP can also include some reference so we can confirm if the topic is real or not.

I guess only certain regions and very limited part of the business in Microsoft, Dell etc are accepting bitcoin... but so far not very popular... As for Apple, I have not heard anything...

May be if he meant wallet.  Cheesy

Some people have enough Bitcoins to buy a car or even a house, that is not the issue but the question is if they realy can do it, will they find a merchant that accepts Bitcoins for this stuff. I haven't heard that Mercedes or Apple are directly accepting Bitcoins but you can probably  use Bitcoin debit card. Or what is even more likely, change Bitcoins for fiat and then buy desired item.


I haven't heard it as well. Yes money is not the question here but who will actually buy a Mercedes using bitcoin. If I'm going to buy a Mercedez, I would rather use my fiat and just invest my bitcoin in trading. Unless we really heard a news that someone has bought a Mercedez car, I'm not believing this.

BTC to the moon is inevitable...
I didn't hear if the Mercedes-Benz accepting bitcoin and tesla is never making an announcement about they were officially accepting bitcoin for their payment. Especially for apple too.  Huh
I wonder who has that amount of bitcoins to buy a Mercedes? I think that this statement is more PR the shares of these companies. Besides if anyone can buy a car with bitcoin then it will be free to talk all the news in the world.

i just googled "Mercedes-Benz price" and their prices actually start from $34,475 and it is ~34.4 bitcoins right now and you could have bought that much with a lot less last year. even if you bought it at $500 that means you invested your money for a year to get it doubled and be able to buy a car with it.
