This is precisely the point! Only technology readers actually know Steam added Bitcoin to payment options, there was no publicity, no pop-up when u start Steam saying you can now pay in Bitcoin..

This was one of the most anticipated events, we Bitcoin gamers were waiting for, and I would have thought that they would have announced that with some big special deals or discounts? I think they might just be testing the water to see if there are a need for this option.

We need to support this, or it might be taken down as a payment option in future. Even if you are not a gamer, just buy some games as some Xmas/Birthday gifts for someone who might be one.

Maybe one month ago. Steam accepted Bitcoin for payment..

Has it been a month already? I could have sworn it was only a week or two ago.

Either way, Steam now fully accepts Bitcoin. Bovada recently started accepting Bitcoin, too. Probably doesn't mean for those who aren't interested in online gambling, but for those who are, Bovada is huge. Largest poker site in US and third largest worldwide.

yea only been like 3 weeks

that is what i said the first time i heard about this great news, it will take time for people to realize this even those who already know about bitcoin. and the rest will also notice bitcoin and the usage will grow over time.

Another good step for bitcoin! Looks like every services and products sold online will play along with bitcoin as mode of payment. Steam for example is a big company which might pull other company to use bitcoin. Payment using bitcoin is on hype now, i would not be shocked if it will be shown in world televisions.

Maybe,1 or 2 month ago steam accepted payment with bitcoin, I think steam know the bitcoin market is profitable and many users bitcoin for now.and Why bitcoin payment in steam is very easy and simple because it's steam offer to bitcoin users and make bitcoin users interesting with this.
