rofl. i completely missed that thread where i was mentioned like a dozen times

U should monetize ur reputation. If u were a fiat gateway operator for Asset Exchange, u would help the community a lot. I would accept dollars issued by u without any doubt. Think of such a business plz...

Anon136,

If you do consider fiat gateway, iDeal might be something to look into for accepting Euros.

I had asked in this thread earlier if anyone had any experience with it, and a member did PM me to tell me that he used it and that it was awesome. If you're interested, I can ask him to PM you, also, to get an idea of how it is used.

He gave me this link:

http://www.bitcoinvergelijker.nl/

But I don't speak Dutch so I only got a vague idea of what is said there.

That was me....what do you need to know about iDeal ?
It's way simple: direct money transfer (via a web interface), from your account to merchant account using your accounts internet banking access system. As easy as Bitcoin, but from the banksters....
AFAIK, it's only in NL at the moment, but your first link hints that they want to take it Europe-wide.
Most BTC merchants in NL use it (as well as all NL online shops/pizza delivery/etc) and u can go from "want Bitcoin" to having the BTC on your wallet in 10 minutes.

Gotta run, some other NL members can mybe explain more.
Try Google translate, btw, give u an idea of whats going on....and try the iDeal interface out, see how it works.
