Hey friends,
I just came across their news page, and there's some amazing entry to see for today.
Just a short story before I go on:
Since I heard about the BitCoin, I was thinking that this currency was perfect for one-click hosters. It provides a decent anonymity, it is easy to obtain, and people who buy vpn-accounts to download anonymously from those hosters would sure as hell buy premium accounts using btc. So I went on 2 weeks ago, asking the staff of ul.to whether they could consider payments via bitcoin, and or if they could consider affiliate payouts via bitcoins. Today it really happened(I hope I wasn't the only one suggesting the BTC)
Ok, so heres the real news:
Since rapidshare fagged out all their uploaders by removing their affiliate program and introducing a pricing model that seems at best shiny, uploaded.to has become the new #1 one-click hoster in the german area, one of the leading one-click hosters in europe and the US. Today they featured a news entry on their site, stating that they would start accepting bitcoins from today(however, they still haven't implemented the thing in their premium payment plan, but there are some features defect in their affiliate backend, so I guess they are sitting on that just right now). Uploaded.to, a top industry company in filesharing does currently acquire about 50-70 thousand new customers every month, as well as they have over 2 million existing customers. They can provide a decent trading volume in Bitcoins, thus making the bitcoin more stable(because they offer a volume that could be higher than the current coin creation rate) and provide some incent for other one-click hosting corporations to join in with bitcoins.
