“Another major online retailer has announced that it is now accepting bitcoin. This time it’s TigerDirect. The company revealed the news on Thursday to much fanfare on its site, with an educational guide to bitcoin and incentives for GPU card shoppers to ‘Start Mining with AMD’. TigerDirect will use BitPay as its payment processor, becoming that company’s largest client to date. Bitcoin will be accepted only for online purchases, not in physical stores. TigerDirect’s parent company, Systemax Inc. (which includes Canadian subsidiary TigerDirect.ca) is a Fortune 100 company with annual revenues of over $2bn and more than 3,000 employees.”
