Bitcoin continues to make strides to become a legitimate currency with the same options as any other fiat currency. These are certainly exciting times for this fledgling currency which is making inroads into the real world of every day transactions.
The goal of these options is not to highlight Bitcoin with every vendor, but to make Bitcoin as transparent as possible between the vendor and the purchaser without having to go into details of Bitcoin at every transaction. This is certainly the future of Bitcoin as a currency...In effect it "gets out of the way" and enables users to purchase goods and services as nominally as possible. There are Bitcoin ATM, Debit cards and Online Merchants signed up for this service.
These recent accomplishments are listed as follows:
