A few years ago, people were saying if you cannot pay your utility bills with bitcoin, then it is not a real currency. We have seen more than one

company that allows you to do that now, so we are steadily moving forward towards mainstream adoption. I hope that we will seen more of this

type of news, as bitcoin adoption increase in the future. We just need to find a way to do this without using third party services.  Wink

sorry but it is only available in german.

The energy provider EnergieAG in Austria (Central europe, south of germany and no kangaroos) started to accept BTC as payment.
Why I post this here and not in a german subforum? Because it is great news that a second big company (biggest food delivery service in Germany too) started to accept BTC in a few days. That is great news
That is pretty great actually. This just shows that the world is showing more acceptance towards digital currencies. This will cause an increase in demand for BTC in Germany.

It's really a good news not only for the people of Germany but the entire bitcoin community. I am sure that there are more people in Germany using bitcoin who may have demanded the energy provider to accept bitcoin as one of payment options and that's why they announced it and it's a good sign for bitcoin's growing adoption and acceptance, the more people get involved in bitcoin the stronger it will grow. Good news for all of us bitcoin enthusiasts, thanks for sharing.

It IS great news. But it will only help bitcoin if people actually start using btc to pay for their energy.

We have seen so many of these announcements in the past, but sadly the bitcoin community refuses to spend bitcoins, and then a few years down the line the provider removes the ability to pay with bitcoin (as no-one uses it and it's too much of a hassle to maintain the option for non-existent customers).

Though it is only in Germany, still this is a great news for everyone. Somehow it will trigger other comompanies to do the same thing. Which will cause bitcoin to get known. And if that happen, many investors will have interest in bitcoin. This will help increase the value of bitcoin as well.

Great news, does it state the reasons why?

Accepting more forms of currency like this can only help businesses, but I have a feeling that when companies start accepting BTC, it's because a high level exec is invested in Bitcoin and pushes it through.

Like I say, this isn't a bad thing, as it's win/win for everyone, but would like to know the reasoning behind it.
