Option is still there. I just checked. Were you trying to purchase from the Marketplace? I tried picking up a CPU and bitcoin was an option.

I was trying to purchase from newegg.com. As you may see in the screenshot, they don't accept bitcoin. :/

The OP is trolling.
If you go to newegg.com/bitcoin there will be a popup that says "this promotion has ended"
There is still an option to pay with bitcoin when you go to check. The popup appears to be some kind of glitch on the site.

Those "mining starter packs" and "mining kits" on that page aren't for Bitcoin mining are they? Surely they must be for Litecoin or altcoin mining?

Pretty sure the middle one is for algorithms other than scrypt. It already has asics plus AMD GPUs are faster when it comes to solving scrypt. Surely GPUs are not for bitcoin mining too.

They can technically be used for any kind of mining but they are likely marketed towards scrypt based mining. Well most of the cost of the mining kits is due to the multiple graphics cards so it must be for scrypt or altcoin mining since there's really no point in mining Bitcoin with GPUs anymore. I don't see any mention of Litecoin on that page however. Just Bitcoin. Weird. Those "mining starter packs" and "mining kits" on that page aren't for Bitcoin mining are they?

Surely GPUs are not for bitcoin mining too. AMD GPUs are faster but the middle one comes with six graphics cards whereas the others only come with three.

Yeah but they're invidia GPUs, they're less effective than AMD ones for mining scrypt. That's why I made this assumption. This doesn't apply to all other algos though.

I don't see any mention of Litecoin on that page however. Just Bitcoin. Weird. It was on the Bitcoin landing page so obliviously people with some level of interest of bitcoin would be looking at it. Many people who are interested in bitcoin are smart enough to figure out that GPU mining is not advisable and that GPU can still be used with scrypt based mining (although not for long with new ASICs for scrypt).
