Microsoft no longer accepts payments in Bitcoins on the Microsoft Store, a limitation that stretches to the Windows Store. The company updated its support page to note that it has dropped support for the aforementioned virtual currency from its app store on Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile platforms.

The company's decision to pull support for payments via Bitcoin currency comes over a year after the company first implemented it for apps and other content on the Windows Store and Xbox stores in partnership with BitPay for US users.

They've already admitted that it was a mistake. Nothing's changed. It's business as usual.

Indian newspapers usually publish these stories with a lag.
Let us wait and see if they publish a correction.  ;D
