A casino won't get a lot of new customers, just because the grocery store on next street started to accept their chips as direct payment.

Bitcoin is a gimmick for payment and the main attraction lies in speculation. So, news of new payment opportunities always have little effect. That's the hard truth about bitcoin and merchant adoption.


Obviously the concept of btc has gone right over your head and you fail to see the benefits

You need to go back to square 1 and read more, or process what you read in that mini cpu between your ears

This is great news from MS. It's the same thing Paypay does; this is just a start-up/testing fase. It will bring Bitcoin not to the moon....yet. It can take 1 to 2 years before they rolling it out on a global scale.

It makes the same amount of sense to use bitcoin for payment, then it is to go to a casino and convert your dollars to casino chips, so you could use them at the grocery store that accepts them as direct payment.

Paying with bitcoin makes sense if: a) You are already fanatical about bitcoin b) You need to make a black market purchase.
For the rest it's inconvenient, unsafe and often expensive.

Just in case anyone needs a reminder, Microsoft is the 3rd largest company in the world (by market-cap), and more than 10x larger than the prior biggest bitcoin-accepting company (Dish Network, at $32B).
Who is No1 and No2??

Apple Inc (1st - 672.46 billion$) & Exxon Mobil Corp. (2nd - 404.86 billion$)

Merchant adoption, even if they convert from bitcoins to dollars is all about the amount of time Bitcoin is held thanks to them accepting bitcoins.

If 365 people use one bitcoin that goes from dollars to bitcoin back to dollars over the course of one day, that is the equivalent of one person holding 1 bitcoin for the whole year.

The longer the period, the more people, the less bitcoins available for people on the exchange, the higher the price.

When there was only one option...a pizza, it was such a small portion of the whole bitcoin supply that 10,000 bitcoins were required for the transaction. If there are a large amount of merchants accepting and requiring bitcoin to be held for slightly longer amounts of time, the less the supply for people who want to buy.

Do you think this pop has popped? Like, I'd definitely want to do the same thing, but up 25 on this news seems... seems light. Like I'd expect more pop? This shit is definitely going down in the big scheme... but where is the rest of the pop?

It has overshooted, and even if this is the start of a week of uptrend it has to come down a bit. Or it can also be a fricking bull trap. Safer thing to do then is shorting (but don't fall in love with that). Incidentally, that is not what most will do after this movement - this is another confirmation for me usually, i'm a bit of a contrarian. 10% here, 10% there and we earn ourselves a very merry christmas - and you go home after a hard day of trading with the satisfaction of having helped the price discovery process. Muhahaha

This is big. Microsoft is one of the largest company in the world and they are slowly accepting bitcoin. The next big one should be Apple.

what you do if it dumps on the news? (like paypal)

This is what happens after every big news pop... I just cashed out & started opening shorts... I made a shit load of money shorting the paypal pop & I think the same is possible here.

No, you did not, you are just telling us you did.

I'm just telling that mr fewcoins is lying and didn't earn a shit load of money. If he did he wouldn't be buying a cheap-ass windows 8 notebook. He's just a poor troll working for a few $/hour.
