Title: bitcoins with credit card
Post by: georgejung on November 08, 2011, 08:21 am
Does anyone know why it is that no exchange or website for that matter has ever offered to sell BTCs as a credit card purchase?  Is there some legal blockade or just a lack of innovation?

Yeah it totally sucks! I have to buy LR USD from Centregold using either an American express or visa card. Once I have the LR, then can I only trade on BTC Exchangers that offer BTC for LR...It's such a hassle because of all the extra fees involved. Although buying with an American express card is waaaaay faster and cheaper than a visa.
