About two months ago, 4chan, one of the largest and best-known forums on the Internet, began a subscription service where for $20/year, users could bypass the requirement to enter a captcha when posting.

As of today, Bitcoin is being accepted as a payment method for buying such subscriptions.

One datapoint (Wordpress) can be an exception. Two datapoints (Wordpress + 4chan) can be outliers. But there's also the possibility that these are signs of the wind changing - signs that widespread adoption has finally begun.
