Hosting.co.uk Adds BitCoin, the World's First Startup Digital Currency, to Available Transaction Methods

Digital economy makes for safer transactions and eliminates hassle of currency exchanges


 Hosting.co.uk, the UK-based web hosting provider, has announced the addition of BitCoin as an eligible payment method for its services. BitCoin offers numerous advantages over traditional bank transfers or credit card transactions, security and privacy being the most noteworthy. The BitCoin network also simplifies the processing of international sales. Hosting.co.uk hopes to reach even more new clients with this foray into the startup digital economy of digital coins.
...

"We understand that many potential customers still shy away from digital payment methods, fearful of identity theft or fraud," said Hosting.co.uk's Frederick Schiwek. "That's why Hosting.co.uk has moved forward with BitCoin as an alternate payment method. Not only is it faster and less costly than most bank-mediated transactions, it's more secure as well. We expect to see a surge in clients from around the world thanks to the globalizing effects of digital currency."

...

Recently, Hosting.co.uk partnered with MEGA cloud storage service as an authorized reseller. MEGA offers turn-key data storage with no software to install and the highest level of security. The service has quickly become a frontrunner in the competitive realm of cloud storage solutions. For Hosting.co.uk, this partnership represents another layer of value for current and future clients.

Hosting.co.uk caters to a variety of hosting needs. WordPress, Magento and Drupal are all fully supported. The company also provides support and expertise for the content management system Joomla!.

That's what I like to hear!
Slowly but surely they will all realize this. I hope the network can handle the volume when they do.
