I have see this in reddit

it seems that Steam prepare their systems to accept bitcoin payments through Bitpay. This is big news for gaming community and for Bitcoin image because we talk for the most popular gaming pc platform.

This would a pretty big step in getting bitcoin accepted in most places as many people use Steam.
Would be nice if it actually happens!

Yeah i agree with you, if it's real Steam accepted bitcoin soon, i'm sure people will choose bitcoin soon because it's easy to use and the price of bitcoin will also increase.

This is really huge, specially with the amount of users Steam have regularly, it would certainly increase the demand therefor as result it could even help to increase BTCitcoin value in the long run. Not sure if others had same experience with me but in order for me to fund my Steam account, I had to go over two exchange rewards system due to my location and it was very frustrating and that made me stop using Steam but with this, I'll be using it when everything gets sorted out.

Bitpay is helping a lot of companies accept bitcoin payments who don't wish to accept it directly, Wargaming recently started accepting BTC as well and therefore Steam must be looking to do the same.

Pretty awesome news! A lot of new people will be introduced to bitcoin as a result. Whether they start using it will be the question, but atleast they get the logo shown every time they try to make a purchase.

Now for some other services such as humblebundle to start accepting it and you have another couple of million people exposed to it.

I hope they would offer some kind of discount for BTC so there will be more reason for non-BTC users to jump in and use it. Once they get the feel of it, they will always use BTC in any of their transactions online.

This would be a huge step in BTC acceptance. But I m not surprised, after all Wargaming already did it and they are HUGE.

really very good news, the largest distributor of digital games that is steam has been using bitcoin as a payment Cheesy

I hope more people buy the original game, because bitcoin is very easy to use for the transaction to buy the game on Steam Smiley

I think its just a matter of time.
Steam will accept btc in the future I'm sure if it.
It will only take some time, be patient.
