This number doesn't really have that much significance. Obviously every bitcoin user is going to rush and make an order the first day to test out the system (or inflate the numbers). But what does it say about sales over a whole year? Or how many new users it'll attract?

Yeah but you have to admit it's a pretty nice way to kick things off.  Smiley

That said,  I do agree that solid annual numbers would be of more significance.

Its an extra 124k in sales (on 1 day!) for little effort, little cost, and little risk. why not except btc?

You're preaching to the choir bud!  Smiley

I just hope Amazon is keeping a close eye on this. Probably safe to assume they are. But also probably safe to assume they're going to want a bigger sample size of data (as Tera is alluding to)before jumping in.
