There isn’t any official website that speaks for Bitcoin,Bitcoin.com is your premier source for everything Bitcoin related. We can help you buy bitcoins, choose a bitcoin wallet. You can also read the latest news, or engage with the community on our Bitcoin Forum. Please keep in mind that this is a commercial website that lists wallets, exchanges and other bitcoin related companies.

I did not know this, good thing to know that you already can buy this much stuff at their website.I hope that this means that they are going to expand. It will be good for the future if we will be able to pay with Bitcoins at other stores,

To answer your question: We run our own search engine with our own software including web crawlers (spiders), servers and lots of hard work, kind of like "Google for Bitcoin". Though we don't use any technology from Google other than tangentially searching for or investigating new merchant leads by Googling them manually, and usually it's to confirm their acceptance of Bitcoin.

We have a blog where you can read about our technical milestones, challenges and musings:

Any chance of you setting up something similar for doge and ether as well? Would be interesting to do a comparison to see if they are really developing a market of whether it's just hype

Interesting. Now we can buy 2.5 million things with Bitcoin, but I could not even find anything that can be eaten.

I think there are voucher sites, where you can buy say walmart vouchers and then use those to buy groceries

I dont like Ver at all but i could say that is is a great option in bitcoin.com. Bravo Ver!
I do wonder what the idea behind this is; more attention to their forum or /r/btc? They do generate profit with ADs I assume. Maybe hosting it on a separate domain would make more sense.

If this is true is a good thing you can now use your bitcoins to buy things so I am glad they are doing this.
This is just a search engine, these places have already been accepting Bitcoin.

So I did some searches for a couple of electronic devices I am interested in purchasing but unfortunately the search results were very limited and I couldn't even find some of them at all.
How about providing actual examples so that we can check it out for ourselves?

Huge props for developing this Bitcoin search engine though and I hope the item variety will become greater with time. Well I will have to stick to my debit card for now.

This is an awesome site, but still waiting so many things to get available for Bitcoins here in my country, as I want to discuss BTC with people here with full freedom, I want them to understand everything about this and use it as a currency only...
Would love if I will be able to buy with Bitcoins - food and clothes, and even my own first home that I will buy with my earnings...
It's hard to buy things with bitcoin in my country too . I had to import things just to buy something because there's still soo little shops that sells things with btc.

I hope bitcoin will be used commercially for every shops just like fiat.

Thank you for sharing this web site, I tried it and quite impressed by how many things I can buy from this web site.
Do they run their own search engine or relies on Google?

Yeah nice new but I'm waiting for the moment when I will be able to go to the store in my street or city and buy something with my Bitcoin debit card Smiley
Or to go to the cinema, cafe bar, restaurant and pay with BTC.
We just got first Bitcoin ATM in my country but still almost nobody accept BTC here.
It's nice to have so many online choices to spend bitcoin but I'm looking for the day when we will be able to spend bitcoin also offline.

 

Well it's a start,  right?  If bitcoin is supposed to be a currency, this is great--but I'm not so sure how that's going to play out in the clear markets.  It's definitely still the best thing on dark markets and for gambling degenerates.

I don't bite.
Interesting. Now we can buy 2.5 million things with Bitcoin, but I could not even find anything that can be eaten. It'd be great if we could find something edible with spendabit. Nonetheless, it is still a good search engine for Bitcoin IMO.

Ninja Edit: I found edible 'things'. Cheesy

Hi krunox123, if you're looking for edible things to buy with Bitcoin here are some good places to start:

https://spendabit.co/go?q=grocery
https://spendabit.co/go?q=honey
https://spendabit.co/go?q=tea
https://spendabit.co/go?q=cookies
https://spendabit.co/go?q=steak

I also just added Huel.com to the UK per calkob's lead above (thanks again!).

https://spendabit.co/go?q=huel

Hopefully the food-for-Bitcoin links above will be helpful and informative and not annoying, if they are please let me know and I will edit them down. Thank you.
Great! Thank you for the keywords suggestion.
I have been trying a few food keywords, and I couldn't find anything edible.
