World’s biggest social network Facebook has started testing Bitcoin payments for their advertisement platform. This image below was sent to us this morning by a employee of Facebook Netherlands in Amsterdam, who is currently participating in the test.

As you can see, it displays the option to pay with Bitcoin on the Facebook Ads payment setup page. Facebook is holding this test with all their locations around the world. Facebook advertising can be used to get more likes to your Facebook posts & pages. Their advertising platform is Facebook’s primary form of revenue, and it is used daily by millions of businesses & individuals over the world. Any business is allowed to run ads, and setting up a campaign cost as little as $5.

Did it come from an official Facebook email? I doubt it's legit and is most probably just created by some fudsters hoping to boost the price up or just troll.

I also doubt the validity of this, but wasn't Mark Zuckerberg invested / interested in Bitcoin as well: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1f77qd/mark_zuckerberg_talks_about_bitcoin_in_hungary/
Who knows, maybe they ARE preparing something?? (for example: for the Zynga games or something?)

Isn't this an old fake? I think this has already been done to death in another thread and proved fake.

Mark Zukerberg? Yeah! I'm sure, he is seeing Winklevoss interested. What are his activities? And other player who aren't covered in media suspicious of active in Bitcoin? Warren Buffet.. anybody?
