Topic: Paying using BTC - page 3. (Read 816 times)
In my own opinion, these two very popular names in internet world don't want to pay their users in bitcoin is simply they wanted to have their own type of cryptocurrency. Using their own created cryptocurrency will make them more popular and catches more users. Having a huge loyal users on their paying list, their cryptocurrency will have a huge impact on the cryptocurrency market.
There is too much volatility in the price of the bitcoins, big companies will never accept the bitcoins until the prices are stable for longer time. Many country's governments has refused to regulate the bitcoins and hence companies are staying away from adopting bitcoins.
It's simple. Bitcoin is still not popular among youtube creators. I bet that if popular youtubers started asking Google for it, they would add Bitcoin payouts at least as a optional feature. I wouldn't be surprised if they bought some BTC some time ago. It would help them save a lot of money in the future due to increasing Bitcoin value.
With the volatility that bitcoin has, it's better they receive their payments in btc than paying their partners in bitcoin. Would be a nice idea if Google made their own cryptocurrency and started to pay with it, because that would give so much confidence for cryptos that Bitcoin could easily hit $ 10,000. This could be interesting and might start a really new running to see who makes the better cryptocurrency, google, apple, microsoft, samsung? Who knows that? Amazon seems to have given the first step and may be the pathways of a large company fully involved to cryptos.
Do you think there's a possibilities that we can use Bitcoin to pay?
I would think it is due to privacy concerns.
How they know this address they are sending to is the person they are paying unless they receive some kind of proof like a signed message.
They all see this as too messy to complicate their business models in their current arcane status they are in now.
Amazon seems to be tossing around the idea of accepting this as they are offering amazon coins and the purchasing of crypto domains tied to their business name.
So who knows now.
May be soon this move by Amazon will push the others to follow as they are acting as the shield for the others.

Why dont google,youtube pay us with bitcoins?
Absolutely at this point, to take this on that payment methods won’t give good idea how it would worked. Bitcoin is still new, improvements is still needed. The market price is not stable and I don’t think it will be the soonest. Then that’s the problem how can they determine the bitcoin equivalent to something when this keep changing almost every minute. That’s need more employees just doing those tasks.
Well, i think it is probably because bitcoins amd all the crypto currencies as a whole are not yet that widely accepted or not yet legalized by a lot of governments. Plus these big names mostly rely on banks too much. That is why they are turning a blind eye on the growing community of crypto currency users(at least for now). But maybe years from now they will adapt and use bitcoins when it's price gains stability or get legalized by the majority of governments. Or maybe they'll make their own currency for the matter, i don't know. But still, only tme can tell.
Now Google, Youtube and Amazon don't pay us with bitcoin. But it's a great idea paying through bitcoin.So hopely one day they will agree to pay us using bitcoin.
In fact, Google and YouTube have yet to accept bitcoin
Bitcoin has the large price fluctuations so use Bitcoin as a payment instrument very difficult to determine the amount to be paid

When bitcoin isn't so volatile it be able to be used more commonly as an actual currency as apposed to an investment coin.
Make payment of goods or services most times have a fixed price for the goods or services, as for me, I don't think is a good idea to adopt using bitcoin as payment channel for such services google and youtube offer, because they many spend more than the normal payment option they currently offer for now.
Maybe in the future they will agree to pay in bitcoins, but for now they like it to pay in the real currency's like dollars and euro's. I think youtube will change and they will pay in coins.
Maybe they will not we can not know but we know that bitcoin is going to change the world.

some years ago there web called watchmybit their pay us using bitcoin for creating vid content, but sadly they go offline cause btc fee is to high for micropayment and they lose investor tho. but if you runing a blog or website you can make money by monetize it with a-ads they'll pay you using bitcoins. i think big companies like google will use btc for payment in the future who knows
Why dont google,youtube pay us with bitcoins?
Everything has its reasons maybe Google and YouTube doesn't want to consider Bitcoin as a payment because of its volatility and a never ending price hike in just a short period of time. Even me if I have a company it is so hard to think to pay my employees with Bitcoin because I may lose a huge amount of money if I will do that, comparing to dollars that the lows and highs are bearable.
Maybe in the near future this 2 huge companies will make an option to pay its workers with Bitcoins and if that day comes then the Bitcoin's price will again increase drastically just like what is happening right now.
Simply because bitcoin's price is currently too volatile to be used as a payment of those big tech companies. I'm pretty sure companies of that caliber wouldn't want to put their company on a huge risk of losing money.
I'm pretty sure it's mostly due to regulatory uncertainties and less due to Bitcoin's volatility.
There's nothing that would stop Google from converting fiat to BTC at the point of payout and sending bitcoins to their publishers. Basically the reverse of what BitPay does.
Of course the exchange rate risk would then get transferred to the publisher accepting the payment. However it is safe to assume that a publisher accepting BTC payout would be willing to bear with the exchange risk as well, otherwise they wouldn't accept BTC in the first place.
Why would they when this isnt a international currency yet? That part of the world will only happen when bitcoin is recognized as international currency and that wont happen until it stabilizes further.

Bitcoin's value is currently facing a lot of fluctuations making official payments impossible by it because you don't really know what's the potential value of the bitcoins you paid someone with . You could have payed someone for a bitcoin value when converted to fiat 50 euros , the next day that same bitcoin could be valued as 80 euros or 30 euros . The fluctuations rates are a real roller coaster and stability is out of table when we speak of bitcoin . So it won't be used as an official payment method unless it maintains a rather stable value across time ( such as fiat currencies who have a fluctuation rate of 1-2% max per year ) .

because bitcoin it's not commonly accpeted and regulated everywhere yet, you need first to wait for regulation and then the big guys will accept it as a payment, amazon also don't accept bitcoin for this reason, but some accept bitcoin like steam, you can make bitcoin using their services some game give you some coins
It is a good method that now we can pay in bitcoin online without any problem. In the present time people are doing big shopping through bitcoin. As I will purchase some online games and many other things just like I will buy a website from online purchasers and I will pay bitcoin to them. the transactions are increasing day by day and the trust are developing day by day.
Because they are part of the financial system as we know. They aren't the typical Bitcoin user, they are happy with the currently way they make transactions and earn money, they are fine with the profit they make. If they adopt Bitcoin some people won't like it... And they might suffer retaliations from financial system, the banks. I believe it's a worthless battle to fight for now for them.
