While people on GFY are making fun of Bitcoins, others are cashing in.

The adult industry used to be innovators and always one step ahead, now they seem years behind. The Gaming industry is already adapting Bitcoin over the last years. Some of the major sites are already accepting it, and Bitcoin only gaming sites such as Satoshi Dice do very well, they made over $500,000 in profits in the first 6 months and are growing a lot.

Also for example BitPay got $500,000 in venture capital last year.

Three other US Bitcoin companies raised six-figure investments in 2012, and French Bitcoin company, Paymium, was approved to partner with a licensed financial services provider in France.

I also saw some big domain registries started to accept Bitcoins and it's becoming more and more mainstream.

You guys can joke about it all you want, but this is not some joke or play money. If you are not in, you are missing out. Instead people here are complaining about $500 mastercard fees and that they are making less money every year, and when an opportunity comes by to change things around they laugh at it.

Let's bump this thread in 5 years and laugh at everyone that is laughing at Bitcoin now.
