Title: 2012-09-04 banktech.com - Has Bitcoin Finally Arrived? Post by: julz on September 04, 2012, 10:16:03 PM Quote Has Bitcoin Finally Arrived? A New Hampshire state representative recently added a donation option on his website to accept the digital currency. Bryn Yurcan 2012-09-04 http://www.banktech.com/payments-cards/240006657 Advocates of Bitcoin were surely elated to hear the virtual currency has gone mainstream -- at least a little. New Hampshire state Representative Mark Warden, a Republican, announced recently that his campaign is accepting Bitcoin donations. ... In many ways, the increasing presence of Bitcoin scammers is even better proof of its potential mainstream acceptance than any politician's announcement.

Wasnt this the guy that received anonymous bitcoin donations at first, but was required to return them unless a name was attached? Sure that's the one. It's pretty recent news really (past couple of weeks I think) - and it's common for there to be a slight delay for media and industry rags to pick the story up. see also: 'Announcement Regarding State Rep Mark Warden's Bitcoin Strategy' https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=102022.0 |
