There's no easy solution to buy bitcoins and that's why bitcoins won't be used that much. And is it possible to give credit to affiliates when accepting bitcoins?

When folks buy stuff in dollars, they don't usually go buy dollars first. The earn them via goods and/or services. While there are always currency traders, Bitcoin ultimately needs to be the same and I think mostly is for the folks who have bought from us so far.
SpookyCash only has Bitcoin rolled out for non-affiliate tours, although we have some thoughts we are exploring on how to incorporate them on the affiliate side as well.
