as far as i know Microsoft is not "supporting" bitcoin it is just a payment option they have on their services page. when i saw the topic i though they did some kind of support (speech article or something like that) to support bitcoin. they are working with altcoins more especially in Azure.

That's right.
Microsoft is accepting Bitcoin as payment option but not supporting it actively.
And in terms of Azure it looks like they accept almost every shitcoin. Cheesy
So much for that.

I didn't know I can spend my BTC on Microsoft e-stores, pretty much a nice way to buy XBOX LIVE subscription or buy points to buy arcade games, beside that I have no need for Windows usage, am on Linux.
Its great though that a company as big as Microsoft is accepting Bitcoin, thats a huge plus in my opinion.

I didn't even know that I could spend bitcoin in the Microsoft store; in fact, I am going to go in there, here in a second, and confirm it with a purchase of an app or something.  Nice!  Well, that's why they weren't realizing any revenue from bitcoin; they never told us we could use it with them....

Already Microsoft is a part of our bitcoin. This will give more big corporate to enter the bitcoin technology. Big corporates adopt only after finding it is flawless.

Oh dear. I really hope that isn't true.

Why, any specific reason? Do you think this isn't good?

I suppose Microsoft decided to stop accepting Bitcoin payments probably because there were not enough Bitcoin users to warrant the expenses put into running the service but apparently they changed their mind. It's always good when big companies like Microsoft back Bitcoin.

Microsft Support for bitcoin is best for its growth

In the first place i never knew that microsoft supported bitcoin but if it does i hope that will continue for a much longer time as i think that if bitcoin wants to become a central currency then bitcoin will need all the support it can get so it is really great that microsoft is doing this.

It is a really good thing that a company as Microsoft is supporting Bitcoin. It will make Bitcoin only more popular.
Microsoft is the biggest computer software company so if people see that they support Bitcoin people will see that and trust Bitcoin.


definitely agree that this is great news.

Anything that helps bitcoin be seen as a legit coin and not some
scam or drug coin im happy even if its from a dinosaur company like
microsoft heh

Microsoft has clarified that the company continues to support Bitcoin payments in its Windows and Xbox stores.Earlier the Windows faq page stated that the users can no longer redeem Bitcoin into their Microsoft accounts.

they are accepting bitcoin but they are now supporting altcoins too by including them in their azure project which whenever news come out price of that altcoin get doubled over night, and bitcoin value go down to put that in altcoin. I think microsoft is supporting blockchain and power of decentralization and dapps rather than bitcoin.
