Allegro.pl supporting Bitcoin?

[benjamindees]

Does Allegro have plans to add Bitcoin support?  Has anyone asked them?

[JP2GMD]

Doesn't look like they will adopt it (plus they remove all cryptocurrency auctions).

they're waiting for law regulations about cryptocurrencies

[malevolent]

They are not the most Bitcoin-friendly marketplace, though they do allow people to list some Bitcoin-related products.

These regulations are already in place. http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoin#Polska: Bitcoin trading is allowed, but polish Ministry of Treasury of denies Bitcoin's status as a financial instrument (as a monetary unit, or - relative to Allegro's case - as an electronic payment instrument). http://www.senat.gov.pl/gfx/senat/userfiles/_public/k8/dokumenty/stenogram/oswiadczenia/klima/3001oa.pdf

That's not gonna happen. First of all they have they own online payment business, secondly - they won't take the risk, too low profit to earn on that for them.

As of 2015: still highly unlikely.

As of 2015: still highly unlikely.

And why is that?

[JP2GMD]

Relatively low adoption rate.
