I think Bitcoin will only gain major traction for payments when merchants give discount incentives for using it. But they don't. Why would anyone spend extra money to buy BTC only to be paying the same amount if they used a credit card or paypal?
It has to have consistent discounts in the first place for people to consider it valuable to by, and not just hold, but to actually use.
Since Bitcoin does save transaction money, then part of those savings should be given back to the consumer. Things should always be cheaper with BTC.

I'm waiting for STEAM to accept Bitcoin, who's with me? 
why waiting for that if you have something like https://steambitshop.com/? they have not all the games from steam, but still there is a great repertory
uhm no, they are the same price, the real difference is that the real steam has more deals and better deal overall, also many more games, that's all
those site are great no need to wait for steam to accept bitcoin, like we no need amazon to accept bitcoin, when open bazar is coming
it is a price you have to pay if you want to be able to buy your steam games with bitcoin, you do not get the fancy sale prices but do contribute to the bitcoin economy. It might cost extra, but it would benefit the bitcoin as a whole to grow and thus make your coins grow too. And yes, just like the $ 2m pizza, you might end up having a steam game that when looking back would have cost you even more if you did HODL those coins, but the coins will never go anywhere if we all hold them, you cannot reach the moon if you hold the rocket back.

I think the issue with these companies and why they don't yet use Bitcoin to payout their workers is because of the exchange of Bitcoin - fiat. While you can fund your Fiverr account with Bitcoin the person doing the job might want or not to take bitcoin. If he/she did want BTC it wouldn't be a problem, but since they probably want dollars it becomes a headache for the intermediary (in this case Fiverr, Uber, ...) to deal with the exhcanges. It's possible. In fact, they could benefit from the exchange rates - but I suspect that that is the reason they don't offer it (yet).
They don't have to deal with exchanges.. that's what payment processors are for.
If Uber wants to accept Bitcoin payments, all they have to do is activate their Coinbase connection so that when somebody sends them bitcoins, Coinbase automatically exchanges it and Uber gets dollars. Same thing with Bitpay.
For payouts it is just the reverse: User wants bitcoins, Uber sends dollars to Coinbase, Coinbase exchanges and sends bitcoins to user's Bitcoin address.
The technical issues are simple and have been resolved long ago. My guess on why they do not do this, yet, is the perceived lack of demand. Big companies like Uber and Airbnb see too few Bitcoin users to make it worth their while. That will change.... especially as they expand to 70+ countries where Paypal is unavailable and credit cards are not widespread.

That's what I'm talking about, the discount price.
And by the way, some country have a cheaper price for a Steam game. Those are the country that have a restricted redeemable key.

These links should gain more prominence.
We should not forget that Bitcoin makes international trade so much easier. So it's always a good idea to help existing webshop owners adopting Bitcoin. Getting small businesses to adopt Bitcoin is a double-win, because they provide services for Bitcoin and might at the same time (as individuals) become users of Bitcoin.

i am right there with you on steam. i was wishing this for over a year now.also inspired by this post about amazon, i submitted a request with their support team a couple of days back, and waiting for respond now
Instead of waiting why don't you call Steam and tell them that people want to pay with bitcoin, that more people will buy more games if bitcoin is a payment option. Maybe start a poll on this forum and then share it with people at Steam. Companies will chase the money...
Only if bitcoin was a little more stable I'm sure more conservative companies will make the step to join the ecosystem, either their CEO plays in the bank sector or they are to scare of the bitcoin price changin or tax regulation issues, then again by us just sending an email to the companies to accepted bitcoin would help a bit. #EarnBitcoin

You also have to send a request to Steam support, maybe they would consider it.

We can pay for uber rides with bitcoin?!?! How do we do that? You have to set up your payment method prior to the ride... I didn't know bitcoin was an option!
I don't know that you can yet.. but it should be a matter of months. Uber works with Braintree:
