I'm quite perplexed by this, but that just may be because I see Bitcoin as a fuzzy thing that will go down in flames and die eventually... :/


Whether that actually happens or not, it shouldn't really matter for TL so long as they always denominate their prices in USD and never maintain any bitcoin as "cash" (by selling the bitcoins at the same moment they're received).

I once did some free coaching and the guy insisted on paying me 15 bitcoins, I had no idea what they were at the time so when I reformatted my computer I didn't bother saving the wallet .

Seems like so many places are starting to use bitcoins though so It's nice that TL is too!



some guy lost his hard drive with the key to a hell of a lot bitcoins. that equaled a loss of more than a million dollars if I remember correctly. you should've kept them


A different case perhaps, but there has been a story in the news here in the UK recently about a guy who accidentally threw away coins worth around £4 million today (more than $6.5 million).

It just screams bubble and when it pops it could hurt those who are heavily invested in it. However, if TL is selling for USD immediately upon transfer then theres no risk of that happening; even if bitcoins eventually crash it won't end up hurting them

The reason we're using bitpay instead of accepting bitcoin directly is precisely because of this - they offer immediate conversion to USD or Euro so there is no risk for us if bitcoin prices fluctuate.

You can also create bitcoins but I believe that unless you have top notch GPU, you will pay more for electricity than earn for making them. Someone correct me - bitcoins are something I still need to investigate.

Nice ! Made the suggestion a while ago. TL is the perfect demographic for btc.

Next step streamers will begin to post a QR code on their twitch page.

Too bad I'm at work, could have been the first TL bitcoin buyer !

I remember when bitcoin was just getting started and they were worth almost nothing. No one thought it would ever take off, and now the price of 1 single bitcoin is ~$1,000.00! I could be a millionaire right now if I had bought some cheap when I had the chance :/
