Three of the top 1000 websites in the world started accepting bitcoins in the past few months--most notably Wordpress. http://www.thebitcointrader.com/2011/12/bitcoin-bounty-ladder.html http://www.thebitcointrader.com/2011/12/bitcoin-bounty-ladde... Thousands of other sites and hundreds of real life locations accept bitcoins--many exclusively. I get unsolicited questions about Bitcoin from non-tech people who see my posts about it just about every day. The coming Bitcoin update is specifically meant to make Bitcoin much more non-tech friendly. I greatly anticipate swaths of non-tech users buying in very soon. I think it's a little early to say Bitcoin has "won" against Paypal when the BTC market cap only just recently broke $200 Million USD. But it is certainly here to stay. Bitcoin's exponentially increasing global adoption rate all but ensures that it will be around for a long time to come.
