Not to mention pokerstars can rake a bitcoin, but what can a giant corporation do with its billions of bitcoins in rake?
you cant pay your rent with EURO either when ur in the US.
Dumb comment. Bitcoin is a real currency. You can sell your bitcoin for $ or EURO and then pay your rent.
When it comes to big corporations, the story is different as the market overall is relatively small (i think 60m with largest account less than 3M).
However surely enough for online poker.
I have used bitcoins to get money onto switchpoker and it worked amazingly well. If any of the sites would accept bitcoins (merge, cake) this would be my only way of getting money in and out there.
