What a moribund argument this guy makes. The fact that you can pay Overstock in Bitcoin means they take Bitcoin. It's for the customers benefit and gives the customer choice. What Overstock choose to do with the Bitcoin they accept is down to them and their commercial requirements. The fact they convert 90% back into FIAT is for practicalities of paying suppliers. I choose to convert much of my own income into gold. Does that mean I don't take my salary in £GBP? Of course not...you Silly man!
