Title: Re: CNBC: Virgin galactic to accept Bitcoin - Branson holding BTC Post by: Phinnaeus Gage on November 22, 2013, 03:19:18 PM Sir Richard is not that up to speed as to what is Bitcoin, let alone how long its been around, stating its a new currency about a year old.

With SRB onboard, soon the major online marketing gurus will somehow embrace Bitcoin in their own special way, starting with this one known for his email blasts: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmOum81dEIc&list=UUt5nvmF4PmVuPsufKVMxGKQ&index=66 Whether a ticket was truly purchased for a gal from Hawaii to go into space, or it's just a marketing ploy, it's good news for the exchange rate of bitcoins.
