Anyone know if it's possible to send bitcoins via facebook? it would be the ultimate solution. Everyone has a facebook profile today, so it would really make bitcoin have a major breakthrough.

Price of bitcoins just keep climbing!! Waiting for a pullback before I buy more BTC

It has been done before... but FB blocked it.

However FB is now allowing bots... so it might be possible, even easy, to do it again.

Bitcoin is not a company to make "deal" with other companies , Bitcoin is decentralized and no one controls it. Biggest payment gateway (a third party) that Steam and other big companies uses now days is Bitpay so If Facebook decide to integrate that , they will use them for sure.

Check out the beginners section of this forum as you clearly need some help on understanding Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a decentralized currency which means that no one owns it.

Anyone know if it's possible to send bitcoins via facebook?

no, and i don't think it can ever be possible because it requires a bot and they don't allow that.
check out reddit.com and see how different crypto currency bots work there and see how easy it is to use them on platforms like reddit

well, that's not true.

it will help but not a lot. what can help bitcoin move forward is more adoption and that will only happen when people start spending bitcoin instead of hoarding it.

don't wait too long or you'll regret it Wink
also move any speculation to the appropriate board.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

That would be great, suppose the only way to do it right now is via a btc address, would be something pretty cool if it was done via a bot as I've seen elsewhere.

Send bitcoin via Facebook I think it doesn't make sense, Facebook just social media. Might make more sense if Facebook accept payment via bitcoin to create an ad on its website.

The question is, do you want Facebook to know your bitcoin address and see all your transactions?
In my opinion, I would not let that happen. One of the reasons why I used bitcoin is because of anonymity.

Facebook will add a new feature to their site which is Facebook marketplace, this feature will make you able to buy/sell various products without leaving facebook, thus they might add Bitcoin as payment method in the future, but I don't know a lot of information about this marketplace, the coming days will tell.

well i guess that the marketplace you're reffering to is a group created for selling in locals,if that so,then it'd be a great idea beside of only getting used to pay FB Ads which is quite effective for marketing,however there must be lack of knowledge about bitcoin becoming the main problem

Well, if we're going to go mainstream, this is something you'll have to get used to. Not only that but if Bitcoin is to be recognized and accepted as a currency worldwide, people using it cannot remain anonymous. Your real identity will have to be linked to your wallet address. They probably could still allow some level of anonymity, like for example regular people don't need to know who you are but the authorities/government will definitely know your identity.

it makes sense, it is just not a good idea. there are other social medias that have already implemented these types of bitcoin giveaways in their platform but in my opinion any kind of giveaway is not really helpful on its own. and there should be some extra work on explaining bitcoin and also more importantly to show ways of spending bitcoin.

No offence, but I suggest you go back to the beginners section as well. I am clearly a newbie, thus i am excused for my lack of knowledge. You as a senior member should know that the Bitcoin system is not decentralized. The author of the original code, have appointed several key members of the development team to maintain the backend of the bitcoin core system. It is thus not completely decentralized (but close).

Why do you need Facebook to integrate Bitcoin transactions? One could get a new Bitcoin wallet up and running in a couple of minutes tops. Plus not all people have Facebook accounts. I for one don't have an account but this hasn't stopped me from using Bitcoin has it?

The ultimate solution for what?

Bitcoin will become a facebook "slave" and the independence and anonymouty will be lost.

If you want to receive payments via FB,just post your wallet address in a fb post.

It isn`t rocket science. Grin
