Mr. Nakamoto decides to take BTC offline

Unless Mr. Nakamoto is some sort of god, that is not going to be possible for him.

Since I don't believe in magic and I find all forms of superstition uncompelling, it seems rather unlikely.

I do not think ebay would accept bitcoin. Niether Dell,Amazon or any other marketing liars that tell they accept bitcoin but trough the "Bitcoin Central Bank" caled BitPay. In fact when you say you accept bitcoin, that's mean you accept bitcoin in your personal wallet not dollars from BitPay. In my country is an restaurant that accept bitcoin. So you go, eat,drink,feel good and when you ask to pay in bitcoin the guy comes with an tablet with an wallet installed and you pay direct to the restaurant wallet...not bitpay or any other "wanna control all bitcoin over the world" company. So until Dell,Dish,Amazon or anyone provide us their own bitcoin adress to pay for goods, they do not accept bitcoin.They accept dollars from bitpay. This is the marketing tool of BitPay.
Guys wake up and keep Bitcoin descentralized.

This is my problem with companies that say they accept bitcoin through bitpay, and my issue with bitpay in general. Bitpay is going to have a million bitcoins at this rate. Companies only accept bitcoin but still change it into and only really use fiat. I'm sure bitpay has a fee too so the small businesses get screwed just like they used a credit card which charges a fee.

Ebay CEO finally surrender to Bitcoin.
His company Ebay is far behind many other big fortune 500 companies that's currently accepting Bitcoin.
One of the biggest company Dish Network beat them to the race. Ebay is now left behind to eat dirt.

They are now looking at many different angles on how to let their customers pay using Bitcoin on Ebay.

Now we need to get Amazon. Resistance is futile.

Amazon will HAVE to accept BTC eventually ... that's something I feel is inevitable! let's just hope its before 2140 or before Mr. Nakamoto decides to take BTC offline Cool

LOL. Okay first of all satochi is not able to bitcoin "offline" as that is simply not how it works. Secondly Amazon, nor any other merchant will not ever have to accept bitcoin. It will generally be beneficial for them to do so to remain competitive and to reduce costs but they will never be forced.

Well that is some good news, when some of the biggest industry names get onboard it will be a lot easier to spread to the rest and that will make Bitcoin future a lot more sure.

More merchants accepting BTC actually put a downward pressure on price as every sales they make will need to be exchange for fiat on the exchange.

How can Satoshi Nakamoto take Bitcoins offline? It is not even clear that he is alive right now. Bitcoin is like the Frankenstein's monster. It has grown so big, that even its creator can't control it anymore. Grin

ok now I don't know why we are getting excited, did you all forget what eBay and PayPal has done to each of you? or you letting greed make it the forgiveness point of it? Seriously I wouldn't touch eBay or PayPal if they allow me to use bitcoin on there, screw them for all the headaches they gave me, once a new eBay opens up im locking to them, that's that

Good news I just hope they don't try and charge stupid fees and try to tarnish it with Paypal that would just ruin the greatness of accepting Bitcoin for them.

Theymos, unban my account.

PayPal is one of the reasons that Bitcoin was created in the first place. We need a trustless and low fee service, not a commercialized scam organization perverting our efforts. eBay just needs to realize they've lost and go away. P2P marketplaces like One Market and Open Bazaar are the new wave now. They had their chance and only wanted to hurt people with their power. Now they're trying to take some of the Bitcoin transactions under their system. I seriously hope PayPal doesn't tower over legitimate companies like Coinbase and BitPay even though they're trying to "partner" with Coinbase now. I hope their version of partnering doesn't inclue buying them out and shutting them up or I'll be closing my Coinbase account.

This really does need to happen as it will be really big for bitcoin when it does. The only problem is companies only seem to be talking behind closed doors and we do not seem to be getting half as much information as we could do for something like this. Once someone like Ebay starts accepting it's almost guaranteed that places like Amazon may follow in suit.

Possibly; Dell and Expedia accepted it lately, the price didn't go up

People are getting way too impatient with adoption and the price, it will come soon enough guys!
