Bitcoin Forum

A rumor has popped up on the Steam subreddit claiming that the video game purchasing platform will soon allow for purchases using Bitcoin. Currently, Steam only accepts credit cards, Steam pre-paid gift cards, and PayPal.

The news comes from a leak of the Steam Translation Server. According to the code mentioned on the server, Steam will utilize BitPay to complete transactions. BitPay is a service similar to PayPal, allowing users to purchase items online using Bitcoin.

One interesting thing to note is that Valve will not allow users to try and game the price of Bitcoin through transactions. If a refund is requested on a purchase made with Bitcoin, the user will get credit in his or her Steam wallet.

Its time for it, after they deducted all users to steamguard, mobile and auth per device :)

But I dont want to have my Ti... uhm ... Bitties stucked on a SteamWallet  ;D

What is SteamWallet? Its not a currency. Its even not a real balance!
Its money on account you cannot cashout. You cannot controll and if you get some software/games or not and you die --- one point will stay the same. They have your money or bitcoin :)

(Notice: Adding condition to my last will about my steam wallet and bitcoin wallets on stick.)
Yeah, those 80 bucks are safe now  ;D

I would pay with bitcoins to get games and ofc I pay with money (or ingame-items) to get games, but I would not put my bitcoins or money fix on a wallet which is not able to give me my money or bitcoins, after a fair cashout fee, back.
