Thanks, we look forward to your comprehensive list of all companies that accept the US dollar. I'm sure it pales in comparison to the bitcoin list.

And just like I asked last time, how much bitcoin will they be holding?
ETA: Better yet, just how long do you think they will wait before converting bitcoin payments to USD? I'll set the over under at 0.5 seconds.

Dishonest article comparing credit card fees to bitcoin transactions. If you compare debit card fees the difference is nonexistence which is basically what coinbase acts as.

From your link:

That's great for Expedia, but if it cost practically nothing and they're not sure how popular the option will be, how is it any different from a simple gimmick? Here's a selling point for our service that you may never use, but ignore that because we're cool — really!

Wasn't bitcoin supposed to be worth 10,000 dollars a piece by now?

Technically, Expedia is NOT accepting bitcoin.
If someone wants to pay in bitcoin, Expedia directs them to a third party who takes the bitcoin, converts it to dollars and then pays Expedia in dollars.
You're wrong again.
Shocking!

Let me know when they keep their assets in the form of bitcoins.

I'm thrilled with this news.
Now wiki can book a flight to get back home from Japan. Josh, bless his heart, is trying his very bestest but he just doesn't have the Maestro's knack for making compelling bitcoin threads.
On a side note, the word "bitcoin" is being flagged by my spell check. No respect!

I read that expedia also accepts VISA. I have 3 of those.
How much are they worth?

Oh my God. Now I can't wait to go out and convert my U.S. dollars to Bitcoins so that I can use Coinbase to convert my Bitcoins to U.S. dollars when I want to use Expedia's services. It's a good thing that Coinbase doesn't charge anything for its services, and there are no transaction costs to converting my dollars to Bitcoins. Otherwise it might cost me more to use Bitcoins than dollars to use Expedia's services.
How many unique Bitcoin addresses exist? According to this website, there has never been a day in which as many as 225,000 unique Bitcoin addresses engaged in transactions. Somehow I am skeptical that the number of addresses engaging in transactions is going to increase significantly due to people using Expedia's services.
