The foundation, which runs one of the most visited websites on the Internet, depends almost exclusively on user donations to cover its annual budget of roughly $50 million. Its decision to accept the digital currency comes as a growing list of corporations, including satellite television operator Dish Network, add Bitcoin as a payment method.

Hier der guten Ordnung halber nochmal der Post aus dem Prognose-Thread, da das ein wirklich wichtiger Trend werden könnte.

 

Man stelle sich vor, sehr viele Händler wie Newegg, Expedia, Dish usw. kanalisieren ihre Bitcoin-Einnahmen als Bonus-Zahlungen an ihre Angestellten zurück!

 

Overstock to Pay Employee Bonuses in Bitcoin

 

http://mashable.com/2014/07/31/overstock-bitcoin-bonuses/

 

"Judd Bagley, a rep for Overstock, says the company is trying to figure out how to offer bitcoin bonuses by the end of the year. If an employee opts for such a bonus, they'll get a premium over what they'd get if they take cash instead, he said."

 

DAS ist genau das, was fehlt für den Einstieg in den Bitcoin-Kreislauf! 
Erstmal am Jahresende ein paar Bitcoins als Bonus (mit Extrazuschlag gegenüber Fiat), die kann man dann nebenbei ausgeben. Dann im Laufe der Jahre den Anteil weiter steigern.
Dann irgendwann einen Teil des Monatsgehalts in Bitcoins bekommen. Und schließlich alles. So können sich Angebot und Nachfrage für Bitcoin-zahlbare Waren langsam hochschaukeln.

Möglichkeiten, Bitcoins auszugeben, gibt's ja inzwischen genug. Die Einnahmenseite muss jetzt nachziehen.

 

Sehr gute Nachricht!

Exclusive: Alex Jones to Announce Tonight He Will Begin Accepting Bitcoin

 

 

Interessant daran ist, dass Alex Jones eigentlich eher ein Bitcoin-Feind war... Soweit ich weiß, glaubte er mal, Bitcoin sei von Geheimdiensten oder Bilderbergern oder sowas gemacht.... Teil der NewWorldOrder... (für alle denen der Name A. Jones nichts sagt: Er ist ein bekannter Verschwörungstheoretiker und teilweise sehr extrem).

George Osborne embraces Bitcoin as London aims to be centre of global financial technology Revolution

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/currency/11014508/George-Osborne-embraces-Bitcoin-as-London-aims-to-be-centre-of-global-financial-technology-revolution.html

 

He's possibly the 2nd most powerful official in UK.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer is the title held by the British Cabinet minister who is responsible for all economic and financial matters, equivalent to the role of Minister of Finance or Secretary of the Treasury in other nations. Often simply called the Chancellor, the office-holder controls HM Treasury. The position is considered one of the four Great Offices of State, and in recent times has come to be the most powerful office in British politics after the Prime Minister.

British Chancellor George Osborne Buys Bitcoin Today the U.K.’s Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osbourne, bought bitcoins for the first time from Cointrader.net's Bitcoin ATM powered by Robocoin.
[link to download photo (actual photos can trigger spam filters)]
London, England, August 5th 2014. British Chancellor George Osborne was the VIP guest at today's launch of Innovate Finance, previously FinTech UK, an industry body designed to champion Britain's finance and technology industry.
As the Cabinet Minister responsible for all economic and financial matters, Osbourne has the most powerful position in Government alongside the Prime Minister. Osbourne's receptive attitude to Bitcoin is another positive sign as the popular digital currency gains institutional acceptance. The inclusion of Bitcoin companies at this event is representative of the increasing interest in Bitcoin from the finance industry. Developments such as this help solidify the long-term stability and growth of Bitcoin.

The Bitcoin Foundation will publish all of the material it receives from the NYDFS for the Bitcoin community to review. If the agency takes the full 20 days to respond, the materials will be available just days before the close of the original comment period on the regulations, which was the minimum 45 days allowed by New York law. The NYDFS has signaled that it will extend the comment period on its sweeping, controversial draft digital currency regulation
