It's working now for me in Europe and this is an amazing opportunity to shop online because you don't need to rely on 3rd party services like purse.io or gyft and just get a virtual master card and purchase the stuff yourself and also you can shop on Steam, Origin, Ubisoft pay your bills whatever you want to do. Cool

Obviously not big enough news to cause a pump, even a small one.

People are a lot more wary now of news like this including me, they won't buy into hype, remember when people overreacted to fake Thailand central bank news items and such? Same sort of thing, people are going to wait for a proper confirmation first.

Fair enough.

I think Gemini & COIN will make the price soar.
Unsure how relevent this 'NETELLER' news is.

I am not sure how good of a news is this for the price of bitcoin. It is currently only allowing people to deposit onto the site but not withdraw from it, so its bad for the price of btc.
This also applies and means the same for Pokerstars. Now since you can deposit but not withdraw means drop in price.

Since when can you deposit BTC on Pokerstars?
Im a former US players, so im obviously out of the loop when it comes to news regarding Stars....

As far as Neteller accepting BTC, thats really really really good news. Hopefully a domino effect will happen with others following the lead.

Like Bitcasino said, it will only be possible to deposit through Neteller for now. However Pokerstars should be adding the deposit option hopefully before the end of the year.
I am however expecting to see Stars allowing withdrawals as well. Will certainly be a better news then.

Great news about neteller finally letting you deposit but like others said we need to be able to withdraw as well or what is the point. i have also heard pokerstars are adding it soon, if that is true it is better news than we have here by far. All around positive though love a bit of positive news to change the norm. Cheers op

Does this mean you can convert BTC to USD using neteller?

I'm not familar with Neteller, but with Skrill there is a currency exchanger built in so you can choose what currency you want to send.

You cannot deposit BTC on PokerStars, however depositing BTC at Neteller, then depositing at Stars with those Neteller funds is a fairly simple task and only takes a couple of minutes once you got it all set up.

Overall its bullish, it will just take some time before they get into withdraws.  Neteller has a huge customer base bitcoin just got a free advert to many many thousands.

Its not necessary they will be adding the withdrawal option as they are doing the deposits with Bitpay. If they do add that, then the sites will be taking a risk as they will have to hold a small amount of bitcoins and will be affected by the volatility that comes along with it. I think Pokerstars might have the withdrawal option once they start accepting bitcoins directly.

Terminated.
After reading more about it:
Quote
The move is an apparent reversal of policy for Neteller, which previously revised its terms of use policy to explicitly prohibit the “trade, exchange, purchase or sale of bitcoins, or any other virtual currency”.
What a surprise. It looks like a certain somebody how accumulated enough Bitcoin at low price.  Cheesy

Yep, Neteller has already started accepting Bitcoin for deposits: http://www.bitcoincasino.org/blog/neteller-officially-starts-accepting-bitcoin-deposits

This could be huge.

It is indeed good news. Hopefully it'll have a knock-on effect and other operators like Skrill and Ukash will jump on board. Still waiting on Paypal to finally accept bitcoin, though.
