“Adding a new method of buying what amounts to little more than different colored pixels on a screen won’t likely add much revenue or bottom line profits, unless of course, the colored pixels are in the shape of poker chips. Last year Zynga added ZyngaPlusCasino and ZyngaPlusPoker to its lineup of games. As more states bet that online gambling can help solve their budget woes, the opportunity for Zynga increases. The recent addition of New Jersey could prove to be a tipping point for other states looking to cash in. Bitcoin removes the pesky credit card approval issues for both user and merchant and eliminates credit card fraud and disputed charges.”
