I see Google taking the ApplePay route, just doing it slower and later. Sometimes Google takes the lead on these things, sometimes Apple. Google started it, but it floundered. Now Apple is coming out with a knockout. Google will catch up. I am sure there is already a big team working on it now saying, "how can we be like Apple?"
In a different note. Microsoft's Bill Gates has come out saying that he is pro-bitcoin.

None of the big companies like bitcoin.
If Google comes into the Bitcoin market then I think all the countries will legalize its use ! Right now trading in Bitcoins is illegal in a lot of countries.
Apple pay is a non-factor only serving AT MOST the wealthiest 5% of the world (300 million / 7 billion = 5%). Here's why:
Google accepting Bitcoin is not going to interest me. I think eBay should be the interesting news. Maybe Amazon somewhere down the line. 
Man if Amazon starting accepting BTC that would really help the market..
It will but mainstream adaption is what always takes the price down they never hold their bitcoins just like Dell.

Google should instead focus on data analytics from the blockchain.
I am sure it is a treasure trove of information.

Maybe google strikes back at apple pay with a killer google bitcoin wallet. Google could get tons of merchants on board and bitcoin could be off to the races.
ApplePay has to prove itself first, there are large retailers that are not even interested in it.
Let's see how it works out, but I'm sure Bitcoin will get support from Google at some point.

Project Prime from GAW Miners will arrive before that. After that, any company Bitcoin adoption will not matter.

Both have the flaw of centralized reporting
People within their phone systems will consider using it but outside of it people will likely try turning to other ways of trading.

I bet Google could definitely design the killer app and also could put tons of money into marketing.
I agree with fa; it doesnt matter how many sugar on top Google puts; its still a fial payment system. Monitored 100% of the time. No thanks.
I still think BTC is going to need all the help in order to not to be repelled by the big players.
I dont think google is gonna use BTC in any projects honestly.
Right. I dont think google wants to embrace Apple Pay yet.
Also, Apple pay is not currency. Plus its not decentralized. So, not a threat to btc.

Wouldnt worry about apple pay as competitor to bitcoin they could incorporate bitcoin in the future, they have connections with paypal so looks bright.
Doubt it, apple wants profits all to themselves

Google wallet has been around for years. These things don't work. They don't do anything. They are centralized and based upon fiat. Junk. Look for Apple Pay failure in a very short time. Nobody wants that shit. Wouldnt worry about apple pay as competitor to bitcoin they could incorporate bitcoin in the future, they have connections with paypal so looks bright.
