"Independent poker room Switch Poker, which focuses on real-money play on mobile devices, announced today it’s added the controversial virtual currency Bitcoins as a deposit and withdraw option.
For those not too familiar with the term, “Bitcoins” is a decentralised digital currency for online transactions. Created in 2009 and becoming more prominent over the past two years, Bitcoins support is not widespread, although various online businesses now accept it as payment, including VPN and hosting services. Customers purchasing Bitcoins for real money can do so at Bitcoins Exchanges and once in an online wallet, can be transferred to and from merchants such as Switch Poker. Users can also cash them out to dollars at the exchanges – similar to a real foreign currency exchange service."
