I am giving away 5 bitcoins as a reward in return for getting 13 real-world businesses to start accepting bitcoin payments.

1. Will you be servicing then these businesses as a payment processor?

2. If yes, are those BTC 5 a remuneration for bringing you the clients?

I am absolutely doing this solely in my own self-interest. The more ways bitcoins can be exchanged for real-world goods and services, the more the valuable my bitcoins will become. The 5 BTC are remuneration for helping the value of my bitcoins increase. But I am not in the payment processing business. Payment processors are very important in making it easier and more appealing for businesses to accept bitcoins, so I hope that they will innovate and expand, and that more of them will enter the arena.
