Global payments giant Visa earned the ire of the bitcoin community earlier this year when CEO Charlie Scharf stated that he didn’t see bitcoin and its technology as posing a significant threat to its operations.

Now, however, new comments from Visa senior vice president of digital solutions Sam Shrauger suggest that the company may be reevaluating bitcoin.

Let the GIANT sleep.  ;)

As a online payment system, they failed. {Credit card fraud is massive all over the world} and micro transactions cost you a fortune in fees.

While they are undecided, we will reap the rewards of using BTC - It's quick {no reverse transactions after a week} and within about 10 min, you will have your coins, to spend it, any way you want.

So let them sleep.

This is like Blockbuster not jumping on internet video streaming when they saw Netflix coming around the corner. Let Visa fade away :)
