I'm waiting for STEAM to accept Bitcoin, who's with me?

i am right there with you on steam. i was wishing this for over a year now.

also inspired by this post about amazon, i submitted a request with their support team a couple of days back, and waiting for respond now

Instead of waiting why don't you call Steam and tell them that people want to pay with bitcoin, that more people will buy more games if bitcoin is a payment option. Maybe start a poll on this forum and then share it with people at Steam. Companies will chase the money...

These links should gain more prominence.

We should not forget that Bitcoin makes international trade so much easier. So it's always a good idea to help existing webshop owners adopting Bitcoin. Getting small businesses to adopt Bitcoin is a double-win, because they provide services for Bitcoin and might at the same time (as individuals) become users of Bitcoin.

why waiting for that if you have something like https://steambitshop.com/? they have not all the games from steam, but still there is a great repertory

Don't you understand, if I buy in site like that the price must be more expensive than buying on Steam itself.

uhm no, they are the same price, the real difference is that the real steam has more deals and better deal overall, also many more games, that's all

those site are great no need to wait for steam to accept bitcoin, like we no need amazon to accept bitcoin, when open bazar is coming

That's what I'm talking about, the discount price.
And by the way, some country have a cheaper price for a Steam game. Those are the country that have a restricted redeemable key.

I think the issue with these companies and why they don't yet use Bitcoin to payout their workers is because of the exchange of Bitcoin - fiat. While you can fund your Fiverr account with Bitcoin the person doing the job might want or not to take bitcoin. If he/she did want BTC it wouldn't be a problem, but since they probably want dollars it becomes a headache for the intermediary (in this case Fiverr, Uber, ...) to deal with the exhcanges. It's possible. In fact, they could benefit from the exchange rates - but I suspect that that is the reason they don't offer it (yet).

They don't have to deal with exchanges.. that's what payment processors are for.

If Uber wants to accept Bitcoin payments, all they have to do is activate their Coinbase connection so that when somebody sends them bitcoins, Coinbase automatically exchanges it and Uber gets dollars. Same thing with Bitpay.

For payouts it is just the reverse: User wants bitcoins, Uber sends dollars to Coinbase, Coinbase exchanges and sends bitcoins to user's Bitcoin address.

The technical issues are simple and have been resolved long ago. My guess on why they do not do this, yet, is the perceived lack of demand. Big companies like Uber and Airbnb see too few Bitcoin users to make it worth their while. That will change.... especially as they expand to 70+ countries where Paypal is unavailable and credit cards are not widespread.

Sato rewards anyone posting content, proportionally to its popularity.

They hope Sato.sh will be the easiest way for someone to earn bitcoins

Sounds very promising.

it is a price you have to pay if you want to be able to buy your steam games with bitcoin, you do not get the fancy sale prices but do contribute to the bitcoin economy. It might cost extra, but it would benefit the bitcoin as a whole to grow and thus make your coins grow too. And yes, just like the $ 2m pizza, you might end up having a steam game that when looking back would have cost you even more if you did HODL those coins, but the coins will never go anywhere if we all hold them, you cannot reach the moon if you hold the rocket back.

I think Bitcoin will only gain major traction for payments when merchants give discount incentives for using it. But they don't. Why would anyone spend extra money to buy BTC only to be paying the same amount if they used a credit card or paypal?

It has to have consistent discounts in the first place for people to consider it valuable to by, and not just hold, but to actually use.

Since Bitcoin does save transaction money, then part of those savings should be given back to the consumer. Things should always be cheaper with BTC.

i'm with you 
and origin too 

but, there are lot of online store that you can buy game code with btc...

[Kprawn]

There are people who are making claims, that Bitcoin adoption reduce sales.

See this thread on Reddit ---> https://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/3flrz9/is_blizzard_ever_going_to_accept_bitcoin_as_a/

The thing is.. these businesses accept Bitcoin as a payment method, and only a few people support them, and then they withdraw their support for it.

We need to have a active drive to contantly support businesses who accept Bitcoin payments.

yeah and with the bitcoin price rising i don't like spending my bitcoin for buying steam games without any discount and the same or even higher price in comparison with buying directly from steam.

i hope steam accepts bitcoin someday soon so we can use it directly and don't rely on third parties for using out bitcoin.

[thebenjamincode]

well i wish to add something like dx.com

i think it will also be good if there will be a big and popular online store that will accept bitcoin as payment
because there are things that is great to buy if bitcoin will be accepted on an online store

It is already easy to spend BTC. It is becoming easier to buy and sell BTC.

To close the cycle and have a real Bitcoin economy we really need some way for millions of people to be able to earn BTC.

Thankfully there is a simple way to achieve that:

https://www.fiverr.com/   millions of gigs, already takes Bitcoin for funding (via Coinbase)

https://www.uber.com    Over 1 million drivers worldwide      (works with Braintree/Paypal)

https://www.airbnb.com/  34.000 cities, over 1 million listings (works with Braintree/Paypal)

https://www.freelancer.com/  15 million users. 8 million projects. (works with Paypal)



If we can get just these 4 to do Bitcoin payouts for contractors, it will give access to millions worldwide to earning BTC. Anyone with a house, a car or able to work will be able to #EarnBitcoin.

The payment processors are already in contact with these companies and have been offering the option to receive Bitcoin payments... how hard can it be to offer the option of Bitcoin withdrawals/payouts?

By the way, how to type "BTC", I mean the symbol, I can only copy yours.  Sorry for kind of off topic.

Just click the icon besides the Strikethrough icon

I think if we use bitcoins to pay for fiverr service then we can save paypal fee. Usually fiverr collect $0.5 as a paypal fee. But if you use bitcoin I think we can save this 0.5$.
