Really interesting... really interesting indeed.

Ebay is a perfect platform for integrating Bitcoin, the whole business model is based on sellers trust rating, and all new sellers will have their funds frozen for 30 days, and power sellers has absolutely no intention in scamming since there seller level is worth more than the few dollars they could get. Really ideal setup for bitcoin, hope this will be realized, it would be huge for bitcoin. (But I want to see it before I even dare hoping for bitcoin on ebay).

But I don't know how much they would charge for fees we all know ebay are famous for over charging.

I'm not sure if eBay can avoid Bitcoin forever. Sooner or later they are going to have to take a firm stance.

"EBay is in discussions about acceptance Bitcoin Braintree '
EBay is in talks with several companies to accept Bitcoin digital currency. EBay's Braintree, that payment software to companies like Airbnb and Uber, the currency could be introduced as currency.

EBay bought Braintree last year for $ 800 million. According to sources of The Wall Street Journal PayPal has talked with several companies that make Bitcoin transactions possible. One is Coinbase.
Mint on eBay
The conversations were about the acceptance of digital currency by Braintree. EBay and PayPal will, if a deal is closed over Braintree, do not even go directly accept Bitcoins. But, according to sources from The Wall Street Journal, this may change at a later stage.
Overstock.com and Expedia
Overtock.com and Expedia are part of the club of big companies that Bitcoins is already common currency. Overstock.com reports to expect that at the end of year 6 to 8 million of its sales with Bitcoins has been paid. Braintree processed before it was taken over a year more than 12 billion dollars in payments by eBay.
Bitcoins in Netherlands
In the Netherlands, among others at Thuisbezorgd.nl and Online Druggist pay. The coin The Dutch payment service provider (PSP) Qantani Bitcoins has also added to its range of online payment methods.

If you don't follow the market, I'll tell you what's happening: Bitfenix is an exchange that lets you borrow liquidity and bet on Bitcoin price, when there was that spike around 680$ in June people thought it was the beginning of another bubble and a massive amount of dollars where borrowed for long positions. The trick is that you have to pay interests to keep those orders opened and the more time you keep those orders open the more the price have to rise in order for you to make a profit. Right now the price is plummeting because there's a sort of cascade effect being triggered by orders that are now in a really bad position and these people can't remain solvent forever. As long as there are bigger players in the market who don't care about the price being stagnant or going lower these people will keep losing money. And these big players are really patient, they are waiting for every order to be closed in red so the price gets low enough for them to enter with a strong position on the lowest possible price.

That is true. The problem is that with many companies they can go into talks for months and months which I understand that any kind of discussion and decision is going to take a while but then we never really seem to see any progress from there meaning it all kind of fades out for a while until we hear anything else if anything.

Seams very likely, dont know why the recent drop in price, hoping it was a trap for weak hands.
Still hope it goes much higher than 1.5k tho, i got addicted to moon launches so much that 3x gain seams low, i know its insane but i cant help myself

Its definetly time to put mt.gox and other bad news behind and continue the lunar mission
