If you think about it, Bitcoin has been around since 2008, it’s been around for ages. The regulators didn’t pay any attention to it whatsoever, they dismissed it as sort of monopoly money." Too late for them now. The only thing they can do is mourn they old banking system.

Over $50K has already been transferred through BTC this month.
However, some of my contractors are still too conservative and afraid using BTC but I hope they will start doing it over time. High volatility is what really slows down the adoption of bitcoin in inter-business transactions.
