Topic: Corporations and Bitcoin - page 4. (Read 2574 times)
I don't think it matters what the "big" corporations think of bitcoin, yes they may boost the popularity by accepting or using it but corporations come and go. Look at Pontiac, Circuit city, sharper image and what not you. Corporations come and go but something like bitcoin has the ability to transcend that like gold or silver that have been around for ages. Money doesn't just simply disappear until worthless, lets all hope that doesn't happen to bitcoin.
I think that as long as they can profit from it they will view Bitcoin as an ally, as means to expand and reach people who do not have access to cards/PayPal etc. Most of them are probably still weighing the risks while keeping a close eye on how things unfold. I doubt that any of those big corps would consider holding on to Bitcoin itself, so they need reliable/ insured/regulated third party processors to instantly convert Bitcoin they receive from their clients into Dollars. BitPay is slowly making a name for itself and so is Coinbase but at the level we're talking here, there are tons of legal kinks that need to be carefully analysed/studied and eventually ironed out before actual implementation happens and this is a slow process.
Also the key is not necessarily how they feel right now, but how will they feel about bitcoin?
In my country, Bitcoin is really recognized already but I'm afraid of what they mean about "rules" and "regulating":

It makes me think that involvement with corporations is far away from happening yet.
