Legal Online Gambling is Next Major Bitcoin Market

http://www.coindesk.com/legal-online-gambling-next-major-bitcoin-market/


wow, that deserves a thread of its own in the speculation subforum! this is big ! if this enables us-citizens to get back to online poker tons of btc will be swallowed to get it done.

if bitcoin develops into the payment option of choice of the online gaming industry....  & the sports betting industry...  we are talking about billions of dollars here.

Pay Me in Bitcoin, IT Professionals Say

Out of 847 responses to a questionnaire sent to Tech in Motion's 18,000 members, 51.12% answered "yes, absolutely," to the question "Would you be interested in being paid for your work in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin?" A further 18.06% ticked "Maybe, let's see where Bitcoin is in a year or two," with the remainder saying that they would prefer to be paid in traditional currency. Just 9.92% rejected the option because they "do not think Bitcoin will last," and 1.18% said they didn't know what bitcoin was.

Very interesting. And it backs up what any rational person can guess already: that China understands the significance of Bitcoin and will not simply ban it.

That's already been confirmed to be not true.  That new source above is unconfirmed and not bad, therefore not good.
