Title: [2015-02-12] coinfire.io: Poker Stars finishing bitcoin integration Post by: LiteCoinGuy on February 12, 2015, 09:24:37 PM Poker Stars finishing bitcoin integration
For several months, online poker site Poker Stars has reportedly been looking at integrating bitcoin as a payment option for online poker games. Coin Fire has received information from company insiders confirming that the process of integrating bitcoin has been underway. http://coinfire.io/2015/02/12/poker-stars-finishing-bitcoin-integration/ Title: Re: [2015-02-12] coinfire.io: Poker Stars finishing bitcoin integration Post by: Black Arrow on February 12, 2015, 11:42:10 PM Since Poker Stars is the most trusted poker site and since payment processors are expensive and one of the biggest bottlenecks at poker sites, I think this is pretty big news. Bitcoin is a natural fit for processing payments at poker sites. If Poker Stars does it, competition will force many other sites to adopt bitcoin too.

If they just sell their chips using bitpay, then this would be bad for the price. (I expect Pokerstars will not do payouts in bitcoin, so this will be bad for the price.)

Seals is okay to use, but seems too many friends like to play at the same tables.

(I expect Pokerstars will not do payouts in bitcoin, so this will be bad for the price.) everything is good for bitcoin, even when they sell their chips using bitpay. use the BTC systems and bitcoin will profit. dont look on the price and think in short terms. |
