What other "pure" bitcoin businesses exist, besides 21? (self.Bitcoin)

jgarzikJeff Garzik - Bitcoin Expert が 投稿

Dear lazyweb,

Yesterday, I was challenged by an interesting question:

What other notable, pure bitcoin (or pure cryptocurrency) businesses exist, besides 21.co?

The only three answers I could summon were BTCjam, gambling and dark web, and it is questionable whether BTCjam fits the "notable" definition. Any "fiat bridges" such as exchanges or gift cards are excluded, as not "pure" bitcoin.

What are some others, crowd?

Not sure I get what "pure" is supposed to mean here ... Didn't 21.co exclusively sell their machines for USD??

Without rigorously defining what make something "pure" it's quite difficult. If a "fiat bridge" isn't pure, then you could also argue that the dark net markets for instance are a "drug bridge" and also not pure.

Regarding gambling, it's worth noting the two largest crypto gambling sites (primedice.com and bustabit.com) are "pure" in the sense they only accept and withdraw bitcoin, unlike a lot of the rivals that accept every coin under the sun.

Note sure what you mean with pure, but I would say blockstream.

bitfury will be running Georgia's land registry using the bitcoin blockchain.

I can think of quote a few, escrow, public hash/notary services such as stamp.io, multiple web wallets such as blockchain.info or Xapo

  1. OpenBazaar; not sure how it's a business though.

  2. There are a number of derivatives platforms where deposit/withdrawal/profits are all in bitcoin, e.g. Bitmex

  3. Video game related - not sure what's the state of these projects, but examples:

    • leet: skill-based games with bitcoin bounties
    • bitquest: Minecraft server with bitcoin economy

Can't think of one, most businesses that accept bitcoin either do illegal stuff, convert to FIAT right away or use Bitcoins as a type of a stock market.

It is also questionable as to whether 21 fits this description as well.

Please define pure. Like only accepting and paying in cryptocurrencies or entirely dedicated to cryptocurrencies?

Here's some inspiration

Outside of gambling and 'exchanges' for early adopters to access large pools of fiat, there are no 'pure' crypto business's that are legitimate. Everytime this has been brought up by someone, vicious attacks would begin from bitcoin proponents.

Early bitcoin adopters immediately invested into fiat exchanges followed by gambling operations.

A pure cryptocurrency business and the leading innovation that bitcoin has brought about:

Cryptolocker and ransomware.

The sheer revenue generated in pure crypto by ransom-ware surpasses every single 'legally incorporated bitcoin business'.

What other purely delicious drinks exist, other than Pepsi?

Pepsi sure is delicious; i guess some other drinks do exist, such as dog piss and radiator coolant; but those are the only ones I can think of.

Pepsi may have paid me to make this post
