This is a piece of news which it appears that Bitcoin transactions are being accepted when major credit card companies like Visa and Mastercard are distancing themselves.  Apparently  Backpage.com which sort of looks and functions like Craigslist is accepting Bitcoin, but because the website is notorious for adult services, it could create a negative stigma for the digital currency.


It's not going to create negative stigma. This is one of the great uses of bitcoin and gives companies the freedom to accept money for services regardless of what the moral police at the banks or credit companies think.
