The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

Now if we can get the rest of the big boys involved: Google, Apple, Amazon, Facebook, etc

Every bit of positive news, acceptance, and exposure adds up.

Pretty soon....

I've seen 2 or 3 posts about this subject, and I always think of something to write, such my satifação with this information.
All this just reaffirms something that someone already said (can not remember who or where and vi) "Bitcoin is the future of business transactions"

Already tons of big sites are accepting bitcoins, great to see an ever bigger one joining in now (although I thought Google would do something "New and Innovative" before Microsoft)

And the price is 340$! If it happened in Jannuary we would have rocketed to 1500$

Pretty surprising to see a dinosaur accepting new idea. Guess there is still hope for Microsoft they won't extinct soon.

Its good for stability. However price increase wouldn't be good for stability. In fact if prices drop to 20$ there will be a huge influx of buyers and new highs of the sort of 2000$/BTC. Otherwise price will stay the same.

Out of shape with big p*nis is better than muscular with tiny pecker. Cheesy

This actually makes a lot of sense. The people who play games on microsoft services (like xbox) and the people who use bitcoin tend to overlap. This seems to be a way to increase their overall revenue as some gamers may not have fiat money but may have excess bitcoin from the days that GPU mining was profitable
