- triptychs 13y agoThe thing to remember here is that people are changing USD > BTC, paying with BTC, and then that BTC is going back to USD. What's the point? This accomplishes nothing other than allowing Bitcoin exchanges to collect tx fees between customers and Zynga. It's non-conducive to adoption. On the other hand, if Zynga were holding BTC, paying employees in BTC, and those employees started consuming with BTC, then they would actually be "using" it. Otherwise it's the same exact thing as punching in your credit card details.
- poolpool 13y agoYes and I can pay for everything with euros in the United States by that logic. All I have to do is go to a friendly bank on the corner and convert to USD.
- shawabawa3 13y agoNo, that's completely different logic. You can pay for something with euros in the US as long as they accept it, even if after all they do is go to the bank and convert to USD.
