As long as you see the BTC sign in a website, that's a free ads on our behalf! ha ha! And yes, if Microsoft games could be purchased with bitcoins, then it means we already have a captive market - the gamers. Soon, those gamers will become traders.

The gamers gain a lot of potential into cryptocurrencies, they are well versed about bitcoin as it is now accepted as reward system or token for their skills upgrade. I saw it 3 years ago that may of my gamers friend are hook into bitcoin mining using their gaming rigs and they start making money out of mining.Now this this the transition from gamers, to miners and now to traders. Microsoft help promote bitcoin through their gamers community because some of their stuff they sell are gamers related and pay it thru third party bitcoin payment service.

This is definitel true for people who games a lot and has work om the other. They can use their gaming rigs to mine and then gain coins. If microsoft continues to support bitcoins as payment, eventually other digital and computer companies will follow. We'll see more and more things that can be purchased with bitcoins.

Is it a legit news? If it is, I'm sure this news will be helpful because it will contribute for another price increase in Bitcoin. It is not impossible that Microsoft will accept Bitcoin because its owner, Bill Gates, is a strong believer of crypto currency. In fact, he has huge investments in Ethereum. I hope that good news like this about Bitcoin will continue to spread.

I think its legitimate, as an endorser of technology, its probably what they will do and I think what Microsoft did will make a huge contribution to the fame of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Because if Microsoft trust it, then other that have doubt will also do the same.

How are they accepting bitcoin? Via purchases of licenses? Games? Devices?

maybe we can pay with bitcoin when we want to buy licenses, games and devices or even we can buy Microsoft product and this is absolutely great news for us so our chance to use bitcoin to pay something is wide open. I am sure that soon many big sites especially shopping website like amazon, ebay, and other site will thinking that they can use bitcoin too for the payment and they will do the same like Microsoft. we can buy many things in that site and I think this will prevent Microsoft from piracy their software because they have a big problem with the piracy.

My understanding is that you can buy Microsoft-owned games and stuff with Bitcoin. I never really paid much attention to it, myself.

You are actually right but yet this thing is already be considered as a good new though since they are already adopting bitcoin into their company which would really signifies that popularity is really going broad.Knowing microsoft is a big company and might they would add up more developments which would make use of bitcoin into theirs.

The effect of this to Bitcoin's market would be great. The market support will even more solidify and by this it is offerjng free advertisement for Bitcoin that will lead to more people knowing it and use it. By this, the demand will raise and so as the price which would be nice overall esoecially to those who have been in Bitcoin for a long time.

Have you seen the link that you posted? YES THEY ARE. If this will push through and Microsoft will continue on implementing Bitcoin payment to other software such as office and other OS , it will be a good advertisement to propagate to other markets. Free Advertisement indeed!

You can buy games using Bitcoin, I know that for a fact, but there has never really been a need for me to buy any games from them since they typically do not have anything worth playing, aside from the occasional neat racing game like forza horizon which I kind of wanted to play but decided against it.

I don't know if they sell many, or any, of their other products for Bitcoin, but I don't know if there would be any kind of real improvement that would come from such a program set out by them. It might have a minor impact on the community when it comes to the price, but most people won't buy anything from them. I would be willing to put money on it.

Seeing a big company who is now accepting bitcoin is a good and a big advantage for them but it is only limited to some stuffs or things.. bitcoin can buy..
If microsoft will continue to accept bitcoin as payment it can result to more exposure of bitcoin to the crowd and it may help to be more popular and well known of BITCOIN and other crypto currency

this is exciting news. microsoft is one of the largest companies in the world, and with the adoption of bitcoin by them, this is certainly a trigger for other large companies to come to use it. And that means the popularity of bitcoin will skyrocket. and of course this is very influential on the increase in price.

Microsoft is not only accepting Bitcoin, but they are heavily invested in the blockchain. They invested in Ethereum also.

This is a good news finally they added bitcoin as payment option, although it can't use to purchase stuff in microsoft online store at least you can purchase items in windows or xbox store, well i'm not surprised at all since bitcoin become more popular many companies are using it as payment method, i personally will not spend mu bitcoin as long as i can pay those items with cash i will keep my bitcoin in my wallet.

If i am not wrong Microsoft started accepting bitcoin for a very long time for their services and it is nothing new as you were able to purchase Xbox games and pay the applications using bitcoin back in 2015,i do not know that whether they have discontinued that and restarted the process,but i am sure they accepted bitcoin earlier.

if so, that would be good news, where the popularity of microsoft will help bitcoin become more popular as well, and eventually btc prices will soar until we can not imagine it.

Yeah it's been around awhile now. Microsoft used bitpay to handle the bitcoin payments. It converts bitcoin to money. So in the end, it's still like you withdrew your bitcoin to money then paid. I'm not sure but if people paid this way then it might affect the price of bitcoin. The technology does present some convenience. Maybe in the future bitcoin payments will be accepted as bitcoin.
