WHERE TO SPEND BTC

[Michele1940]

Is there any place on the web where all merchants accepting BTC as a form of payment can actually be found and maybe advertise their offers there ?

Aside from  https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Trade , of course.

Thanks.

So aside from the hundreds of listed places you need some more?

My question is if there is any common place where merchants can offer goods accepting btc as a form of payment. Nothing else.

Check this discussion please.

Your argument makes no sense at all.  There are lots of places you can buy goods/services with bitcoins.

Well, mine is not an argument at all. It is just a suggestion to have all merchants in one place. Easy for bitcoin's fans to find and spend they btc to give a boost to bts economy. Sorry if I did not made it clear in the first place.

But most of them are all in one place?  The wiki has a lot of places that accept BTC as payment.

Do you need a list of all merchants that accept USD as payment too?

you just described why all the other payment systems are struggling -- the chicken and egg problem.

until you have enough consumers who want to pay using that method it is hard to convince a merchant to accept it.  until you have enough merchants who accept that payment method, the consumer won't want to start using it.

you don't need a directory when chances are 50% or higher that the ecommerce businesses you already use accept bitcoin.

four weeks ago most consumers and merchants never heard of bitcoin.   rome wasn't built in a day.

they are in one place though, that wiki that you said "anywhere but this"  What's wrong with the wiki?

There are lots of bitcoin review sites that list merchants.  Thebitcoinlist.net and bitcoinsreview.com are two that come to mind.  There are a list of these kinds of sites on the wiki as well.
