I got SoS to accept Bitcoin,

http://www.symphonyofscience.com/

 Shocked

If you haven't listened to this music then do so- it will cause you to appreciate science so much. I've been playing it near everyday since the last year XD

Man so happy they accept Bitcoins. Donate to them. Their work is absolutely incredible. It's because of SoS that my sister is studying astrophysics.

My site, www.freeworldmarket.com has a pagerank of 3. I have to reconfigure some things on it to take bitcoins (paypal froze the purchase account on there now), then you'll be able to buy from over 70 stores. What's that worth?

I think it's great that people are doing their best to getting stores to accept bitcoin but haven't everybody withdrawn their bounty's in this topic?

Hi,

i sent an email to secondlife and proposed they should integrate bitcoins as their primary currency, or they make exchange rates etc.

hope they accept and then i hope someone shows a generous heart to me Smiley

As promised:
The largest Bulgarian e-cigarette store switched to BTC as alternative currency (not going to make it default as even EUR is not a widely accepted currency in Bulgaria yet) - http://www.pv-bg.com (either use the drop down menu or directly go to http://www.pv-bg.com/?currency=btc)

The other store that also uses BTC since my request: http://boardgames-bg.com (drop down menu or http://boardgames-bg.com/?currency=BTC).

Any reward to go to 12UYR1sj4tyddurscvNMTdqb7MRJ6ieRu6 or the address in my sig.

I might be able to get a particular silver mint onboard with taking Bitcoins if the bounty is high enough. Anyone willing to donate to close the loop between bitcoins and silver currency?

I'm going to talk to Day[9] of starcraft fame to take bitcoins as donations, and possibly the blip.tv subscription service he has. I'm not sure if this qualifies for the bounty, but I figured I'd give a heads up.

Day[9] is awesome. I've never played starcraft, but I randomly clicked on one of his videos the other day and was glued for the whole 1 hour 50 minutes.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJztfsXKcPQ

It's the story of his life as a starcraft player, and it's amazing. What a guy! I regularly watch his channel now to watch the commentary he gives, even though I've never played the game.

Philosophically close to bitcoin Smiley



or not... the answer:


Hi.

 There is LOTS of different payment options out there.
 Most of them are scams.

 The big problems is when we need to transfer the \"currency\" to a real
 bank to be used to pay for our costs.
 This is where most of the options fail (since they are scams and do not
 have any money to pay).
