Who Accepts Bitcoin - Updated

Who Accepts Bitcoins?

Bitcoin is the first decentralized digital currency system that works without a central bank or administration. Instead, the peer-to-peer network enables the transactions to take place directly, without an intermediary.When it was first introduced in 2009, people were not sure whether to accept it or not. But with time, Bitcoin is taking over as the most common and well known form of digital currency. Most of the large businesses are now allowing their online customers to purchase products with bitcoins. Being private and untraceable, people have opted to use it to buy items they wouldn’t want to reflect on credit cards.

The following companies accept Bitcoin as a mode of payment.

 

Rakuten

Rakuten started investing in cryptocurrency years ago, and back in 2015 they actually went as far as to offer a 30% off to anyone using Bitcoin to purchase their products. Word has it that they’re even starting to develop their own cryptocurrency, affectionately named Rakuten coin.
