Slysoft accepts them if you're into archiving your DVD's and Blurays:
http://www.slysoft.com/en/bitcoin.html

The companies that accept them are growing, just very slowly. There are random legit small businesses all over that accept them. They rarely advertise because they don't want to be included in with companies like Silk Road since they're all over the news.

Bitcoins in the end are no different than a hard currency like gold or silver. The main difference is in their volatility. Probably due to how nervous everyone is about this new currency. Governments and banks hate any currency that they can't directly control, tax, have complete visibility on, etc. Its a loss of control they don't like.

I mined them for a while a couple of years ago, its really not worth mining them anymore. But that's already been said. Its funny so many are slamming bitcoins and then complain about the government and banks that use regulated currency to control you.

Not worth mining anymore? I noticed more than half of the maximum bitcoins have already been discovered and that it slows down the closer you get to the cap.

What do you think about mining litecoins?

I'm making about half a litecoin per day right now with a single 7970 setup. LTC prices went from $2.10 two weeks ago and peaked to about $8.50 today. Get in while the gettin' is good or you'll be kicking yourself in a year when they hit $50/coin. I'm waiting for $20/coin so I can cash out 10-15 of them and buy a second mining card. I'm hoping in a year to have about 200 or more coins banked, see them hit $50+ and be sitting on 10 grand for doing jack shit.

I use coinotron.com as my pool for LTC. They don't have a BTC pool anymore. Unless you're running a TON of gear you're going to be pool mining.

BTC mining not worth it unless you invested in one of those $20k butterfly lab machines.

Jesus, this dude's investment advice is to sell an asset just before it spikes in price by over 1000%.

Shanna, don't let him anywhere near your house finances. This is a case where the woman of the house actually has more financial sense than the man.

The original post was over a month and a half ago.

If you want to invest in an "asset" (read: it's not even an asset) more volatile than fire in a meth lab, go ahead.
