I think we really need more large merchants to accept bitcoin as payment and offer a discount in exchange for using bitcoin to pay.

I disagree with u. We need more Bitcoin startups to go big, NOT more big boys to accept Bitcoin.

I'd be happy to see both these things take place myself. I'd very much love to see Bitcoin startups do well and seeing many come out of the "woodwork" would be very encouraging. Every innovation is a step in the right direction and makes Bitcoin more accessible for the end user.

I think we overall need more large merchants start to accept bitcoin. Once we see enough of this, we will eventually start to see some B2B transactions.

Any new business whether old economy or new economy is good for us. Steady growth in all sectors is a great thing. I don't really see a need to say this one or that one is better. Growth is growth.

Yes, this is a nice feature to just type the receiver's name to send btc. All of these small useful function will escalate the expansion of btc among the majority of population.

What we really need is more bloggers willing to turn their blogs into online garage sales and clean out their closets while earning some Bitcoin. Maybe then the big merchants will start noticing when they start losing sales to little bloggers who accept Bitcoin that they might have previously ignored.

The fast majority of small businesses and start-ups will fail. It also usually takes several years for start-ups to reach any kind of scale, and most BTC related start-ups are a year old or so and are focused on profiting from increasing BTC adoption.

When a large merchant accepts BTC, a huge number of new people can potentially start using bitcoin.

All that is necessary is patience. This game is already over, the world just hasn't figured it out yet.

Yes, this may help, but it is not decisive, I think.

We need people to be aware of the advantage of Bitcoin, that go beyond the store adoption.

the name feature is a valid addition, and you can always just use QR codes or the long address aswell, so its not like its limiting the choice.
a step in the right direction.

Totally agree, this is something that is really needed and will aid bitcoin to become more popular among many other people. The more bigger companies accept bitcoin the better it will be for bitcoin.

Looking forward to more adoption of decentralized bitcoin address registrations like this:
