Title: Facebook testing Bitcoin payments??? Post by: sofuca on January 05, 2014, 07:29:00 PM http://bitcoinboard.net/facebook-accepts-bitcoin-on-advertising-platform/ Maybe the reason for the sudden rise! Love or hate Facebook - its pretty good exposure..... Title: Re: Facebook testing Bitcoin payments???

This looks fake to me. The bitcoin graphic is a different size to the other graphics. Title: Re: Facebook testing Bitcoin payments???

Love or hate Facebook - its pretty good exposure..... I'm still not sure about this. Has it been verified through other sources? Title: Re: Facebook testing Bitcoin payments??? Post by: T.Stuart on January 05, 2014, 07:37:08 PM I would close this thread until we are certain or it could cause ... volatility!

Title: Re: Facebook testing Bitcoin payments??? Post by: sofuca on January 05, 2014, 07:44:29 PM its a speculation forum!

Title: Re: Facebook testing Bitcoin payments??? Post by: jballs on January 05, 2014, 07:51:45 PM Big question (this screen grab is fake, is my vote)... Is zuckerberg even capable of promoting if winklevoss benefits?
I think he would be the last holdout, else he will buy 10x what they hold to make sure they don't get one up on him. Litigation like that leaves hard feelings for a long time. I think if I were zuck I would buy in large. Not like he can't afford to. But it won't be on the site yet. Soon maybe, zynga went there and they are a mainline feed to fb. Title: Re: Facebook testing Bitcoin payments??? Post by: gentlemand on January 05, 2014, 07:52:17 PM Someone who posted it said it was on a private testing platform at the moment. So no one out of the loop will see it.
A lovely idea. I'll wait to be convinced. Title: Re: Facebook testing Bitcoin payments??? Post by: waxaddict on January 05, 2014, 08:21:21 PM If Facebook jumps on board it'll be huge. At least exposure wise, more people finding out about Bitcoin.
Title: Re: Facebook testing Bitcoin payments??? Post by: Buffer Overflow on January 05, 2014, 09:51:47 PM I need more proof. I'm not convinced.
Title: Re: Facebook testing Bitcoin payments??? Post by: gweedo on January 05, 2014, 09:54:59 PM Clearly fake. That is the worst cramming of a already made bitcoin image into an image to fit it. I but they just took chrome, used the dev tools and added that line.
Title: Re: Facebook testing Bitcoin payments??? Post by: JimboToronto on January 05, 2014, 09:59:35 PM I need more proof. I'm not convinced. Precisely. We were collectively skeptical about the fake Bitpay hack news. This seems just as phony. Still, a nice unqualified verification or denial from FB would help kill the rumors.

Is this a weird reverse psychology campaign? Is the price about to go wild, and to get more people to sell in this range, crappy rumours (Netflix included) are kicked around to make a natural price recovery look like a bubble? Not quite sure what to think TBH. Title: Re: Facebook testing Bitcoin payments??? Post by: GigaCoin on January 05, 2014, 10:32:00 PM looks fake, i'll wait for an official statement.

Soon maybe, zynga went there and they are a mainline feed to fb. I agree with this. Pretty sure one, this is fake, and two, I still can't see Zuck promoting anything that would make the W twins even more rich. This is one of the main problems with Bitcoin markets right now. Everything is totally unregulated. If proven fake, this is a classic pump and scheme. Did Bitcoin go up today because of this or because of the Zynga new or some other factors? Who knows.

Explain how the regulated markets are protected from people using unsubstantiated rumours to run pump and dump schemes? Oh no, that's right, pump and dump schemes are regular occurrences, and for publicly well known brands like Facebook no less. |
