Coinbase is one of the largest payments processors helping large organisations to adopt Bitcoin. <\/p>\n

I remember back in 2002 my mum said I would never put my credit card details on the internet. Now she does shopping online all the time. What is considered normal or secure changes very quickly,\" he said. <\/p>\n
To me its the most exciting thing in the world to be working on right now. Bitcoin is like a giant wave, were just a little surfer riding it. Maybe it makes sense for there to be an internet currency, and have that be the reserve currency of the world. <\/p>\n
Fred Ehrsam, co-founder at Coinbase, said of the news: Were really pleased to partner with Dell once again, this time bringing its customers in the UK and Canada the option to pay with Bitcoin. <\/p>\n
Dell saw that many of its customers wanted to pay with the currency and responded by quickly working with us to give them that option. It is now the largest merchant to accept Bitcoin internationally, paving the way for retailers around the world to follow suit. <\/p>\n
Its another big step towards expanding Bitcoin acceptance worldwide and something were excited to be a part of. <\/p>\n
Late last year technology giant Microsoft announced that it would also start accepting Bitcoin, albeit in a more limited way than Dell. <\/p>\n
Customers can use the currency to add credit to their Microsoft account, but not to pay for goods directly. Once you add money to your Microsoft account you can use it to buy apps, games and other digital content from the Windows, Windows Phone, Xbox Games, Xbox Music and Xbox Video stores. <\/p>\n
