Twitch, an Amazon-owned live streaming video platform which integrated Bitcoin back in August 2014, has began to offer Bitcoin as a payment option again using the Coinbase payment processing gateway since August 21, 2016............ https://cointelegraph.com/news/amazon-owned-twitch-re-adds-bitcoin-payments-using-coinbase Title: Re: [2016-08-21] cointelegrah.com] Amazon-Owned Twitch Re-adds Bitcoin Payments Post by: Shiroslullaby on August 21, 2016, 11:31:51 PM I know that some people on the board have negative feelings towards Coinbase, but I think that this is a good thing.

In this case Coinbase is just payment provider, nothing more. There is no usual KYC/AML and every transaction tracking like they do when you have wallet/trading account on Coinbase.com.Another platform with a large, established base of young tech-savy users adopting BTC as a payment system is exactly what we need to move forward with cryptocurrencies. And that is actually a great news - I am an avid twitch.tv viewer and when they took down the ability for subscribing with BTC I was really upset. Now I am waiting for HumbleBundle to do the same. |
