The paradigm shift has already begun. Deprecated dinosaurs will get crushed by history. If you are not Bitcoin you aren't on the wining team, get really to get erased. Anyone not holding at least 1 BTC now is simply clinically insane.

The prophecy is happening.

I agree. One of the biggest selling points of bitcoin is that it's free of this sort of censorship from banks or credit card companies and they only shoot themselves in the foot when they do this sort of thing and it spreads adoption to bitcoin in the process. Hopefully more companies will get involved whether they're censored or whether they're just sick of paying extortionate fees to payment processors and credit card companies.

The problem is that unless you get paid in cash, you still need banks to gain acces to bitcoin.

I think it is a brave but wise move from back page. It will also greatly increase bitcoin users if they need to pay them in bitcoin for the ads.

I dont see this as being good news, we all know that backpage is mainly used for prostitutes, yes i have no problem with bitcoins and prostitutes, I do have a problem with the fact that backpage is known for having under aged prostitutes listed, if anything happens and bitcoin was used, it would further taint the bad reputation we have

This is a very large service/company that now only accetps BTC.. this is the best news in ages.

IMO the idea that bitcoin is bad because it is used for bad things is completely countered via the USD is more widly used and accepted for those things and worse.  Most people understand that now.

[tspacepilot]

Porn is not my thing but I am happy to see freedom.  I remember there was some trouble with backpage a few years ago in my town related to possibly underage escort stuff.  I guess that while I'm happy to see bitcoin allowing usage where credit cards feat to tread, I'm not completely convinced that backpage is a great thing for our world.  I see this news as mixed.

I competely agree we need a way for people to buy BTC with out having to touch the pigs that run the banks.

The bitcoin adoption is slow but is surely turning heads, having banks, corporations and governments worry about loosing their monetary power over its people the biggest thing is that this not a one country effort but we are from earth united has one with bitcoin we could gain everything we have lost.

I would love to get paid in bitcoin. This way I wouldn't be tracked by shady individuals, who run corrupted banks and whatnot... It would be so easy for me.

Alas... if you were paid in BTC the pigs in your country would demand that your company tell them which public address you were paid too.  The idea of America's freedom is over 100 years dead.

You don't. You can sell them for cash face to face or exchange them for other things but the point is credit card companies have tried to boycot them and they have found a way around that. I don't really see how it's brave either as it's their only choice when they have no other options to take in money.

[scarsbergholden]

This is the point where we have keep on holding has more and more people begin to see what bitcoin can offer, I'm not going to say I'm glad the Greece drama happen and a lot of people got to experience a reality check of what can the government do to its people but it was a great sample to what this new economy model has become.

Yes, that is exactly what it should be.

Just for making babies then?

[eerygarden]

The media again have an obvious direction to take any stories they may make regarding this in. Sleezy.

It will attract new users though.

[dothebeats]

This is good I must say. I want to see bitcoins being widely accepted in the future and also that I can easily pay my bills and other stuff that I want in bitcoins. Who else wants to see a bitcoin future?
