I've recently found myself having to pay for a few things online with bitcoin, not because they have anything to do with bitcoin, but because bitcoin payments actually worked and Visa/MC didn't!

For all the talk in the early days of Bitcoin comparing it to Visa and how it couldn't reach the scale of Visa, I never thought it would be that Visa just decided to place itself lower than Bitcoin.

Kind of the same as Windows getting so bad it got worse than Linux, actually...
