A bit of a stretch to use the word "involved" but yeah, marketing creates hype.

I guess all the celebs who had naked pictures of theirs stolen are also involved in Bitcoin because the thief wanted donations in bitcoin. Spread the word.

totally agree.

Apple only allows an app on his market... "involved" is not the word i've choose.

If Apple include Bitcoin transactions with their rumoured payment plans then its a totally different thing and will apologise.

In the same token, if you can pay Google for services in Bitcoin and receive bitcoins from Google then I also apologise.

If IBM allow you to pay for services then I also apologise, and ditto for Microsoft.

Microsoft researches do do research on Bitcoin.  The one on pool payment schemes comes to mind.

Nice Graphical representation.

Bitcoin will soon be taking over other conventional methods of finance.

they accept it and do stuff with it i guess. but we need more people spending bitcoins. we dont want tons of companies selling their btc off fast by using bitpay or whatever. we need more buyers of bitcoin who use it. companies are creating too much sell pressure + miners are  as well.

This does not show how these brands are 'involved' with bitcoin. Just because they are allowing certain apps and such on their stores or websites does not mean in my eyes at least that they are involved with bitcoin.

At least it shows that BTC is paid attention by all the four big companies.

Yeah those are just some pretty tenuous connections. I wouldn't really say involved for some, more like keeping an eye on lol.

These brands get themselves involved as their users(people) get involved onto it.

i dont like to wear the tin foil hat but when its public knowledge of corporations and government authorities ties, then its not a conspiracy

IBM getting involved is not for 'freedom' use, but due to the fact they are partners of the police intelligence in the UK
google getting involved is not for 'freedom' use, but due to the fact they are partners of the NSA/CIA in the US
microsoft getting involved is not for 'freedom' use, but due to the fact they are partners of the NSA/CIA in the US

Apple is "involved" by banning all Bitcoin apps in the first place.  ;D ;D

Of course big companies involve them into what people AKA their users involve into

Probably many of them are using BTC as investment, internally. Bitcoin has made heavy growth in last 2 years.
