I am a network guy and I work for a company that used to be one of the internet pioneers. Recently however, we have been sidestepped by other companies a bit,  but we are still around and trying to turn things around with new software that frankly is pretty awesome. Anyway, we had an all hands meeting the other day and after the meeting I went up to our CEO and asked him what's his opinion on taking BTC as a form of payment. I was expecting a very short answer that was negative, and to my surprise it was completely the opposite. He seemed very interested and asked me question after question about mining, MT GOX, alt-coins etc. We spoke  for a bout 5 minutes and afterwards he told me to send an email to some of the guys way up on the pole and CC him, which I did! I'm SO EXCITED! I feel like i just asked a girl out to prom Cheesy



What country is your company?

Bitcoin transaction only work well for cross border trade. For local trade, it is usually best to use cash or credit card.

How is cash/card still better?

For instance, I need to make a payment for some goods I bought this morning and need to pay via bank transfer. Pain in the arse, need to logon and setup a new recipient, receive a call from my bank confirming the new recipient, then able to transfer funds.

With BTC, I could of sent to his address in seconds.

Great news, if we could get the company name (I know you would prefer not to disclose this information), that would be awesome. Imagine being the guy that got the CEO of apple to accept bitcoin. You'd be pretty famous and respected here on the forums!

Any news regarding companies willing to accept bitcoin as a form of payment is great.I really hope there will be more people like this who take this step and if that happens we could say that bitcoin will definitely continue to grow.

The name of the company is?

Maybe we can send some emails to the company to help them with their decision to take Bitcoin. Some of us might already use them.

I really rather keep that private right now. I hope you can understand.


there is multiple good reasons to not associate a legit business with a forum username. mostly to keep business/pleasure as 2 separate things and also a bit of risk reduction of potentially tarnishing your employers brand if you said something bad here, which would lead back to employer.

so yea we understand

one thing i would say though. ask your boss for you to be paid your wages in bitcoin (saves him converting it to fiat as much)

Thanks for understanding.

Yes, if this thing pans out, I might end up having a meeting or two with them. I'll be sure to bring that up. Thanks for reminding me.
I sure would love to take a % of my paycheck in BTC.

If the company provide service world wide, you can probably advertise here and see how many will use your company service and pay using bitcoin.

That is really great. And it is for sure a trend: from now on more and more companies will look forward to accept and to work with cryptocurrencies. When we take into consideration the technological evolution, it's a very natural step.
