Topic: Now you can use Bitcoin to pay for your hotel in Vegas (Read 1962 times)
Good news, in the end of this year I may go there and maybe I will be able to try it out.
You should suggest this to Stunna or doog. Trip to Vegas for like 3 days of having a casino.
I think there could be a big opportunity for casino operaters to incorporate bitcoin somehow. People could wager their bitcoin at the card table and the dealer could payout their chips back to their wallets. They could also make it "fair" in a similar way that BTC based casinos do to weed out the cheaters. I would think if a casino starts accepting bitcoin, it will be to buy chips. Seems a lot simpler to implement. Is there a reason you'd like to see it the way you describe? Sorry I don't gamble so maybe I'm missing something here.
Sorry, I thought you meant that people would bet directly with their bitcoins. I didn't even know you could buy chips at the table; I thought you bought them from a nice lady in reception
I've never actually been in a casino (you may have guessed this by now).I'm not sure how people cheat the system either, but would be interested if you can be bothered to explain.
The Golden gate and The D have accepted bitcoins As of this year, just as was at the D last week, the hotel and their restaurants accept BTC. The BAR and the games do not take BTC but they do have a RoboCoin ATM on site so it is not a huge issue.
I'll pass.
Let me know when the Palazzo or Bellagio is accepting. Then I will rain bitcoins all over them! Never even heard of these places. I go to Vegas in style only. 
Ha, wow, yeah I guess Bitcoin and Vegas do fit pretty well! I mean a payment system that can be used anonymously? A city full of 'sin', money, and adventures? It'll be interesting to see whether they'll adopt Bitcoin for gambling, as well. But I doubt that as of now...
It's cute that people still think that btc is anonymous.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if a guy walked into a stripper bar and started tossing flashdrives with BTC on them at the strippers instead of dollars? I guess you could say he'd be "making it hail" instead of rain. lol
Perhaps a paper wallet would be less painful

Fear and Bitcoin in Las Vegas 
The world's biggest Bitcoin convention happens in Vegas this fall - October 5 -7. Everything you ever wanted to know about the latest in Bitcoin will be happening there. http://insidebitcoins.com/las-vegas/. Virtually everyone involved in bitcoin will be there.
If you book a room now, you'll only pay about $50 for a great suite at any major hotel on the strip. The 'D' is downtown and a $15 taxi ride to the convention which was at the MGM last year. Better to stay at the south end of the strip and walk. Try NewYork, NewYork hotel, Monte Carlo, Luxor. Those are cheap, cheap, cheap and close.
I am certain you won't want to miss the Vegas Bitcoin convention. It sold out last year to everyone's surprise. Next year it is sure to do the same - so better to book early.

did bitcoin is used in casinò already? i mean real physical casinò
Its a great new. I have also found that a lot of sites are start accepting Bitcoin. I think is near future most of the online shop will accept Bitcoin.
I like strippers. haha. Cant wait to go to Vegas this winter! I'll have to load my phone wallet up with BTC before i go! haha

I find also interesting that hotel in Vegas first offered Bitcoin, it seems for them any currency is good currency

If you are a member of one of the Casinos rewards programs then you can likely stay in Vegas for free. I gamble very little when I go there, but receive offers to stay in their hotels for free almost every day.
Excellent news, Nice to see Bitcoin accessible in a place where so many will have access to it and in a place where people are very likely to spend and splurge. I've got some family out in Vegas I've been meaning to visit so this is another reason to go out there and visit.
