Western Union considering taking bitcoin as payment method

Interesting.

Quote:

Western Union, a 162-year-old firm that made its name by offering telegraphs, is considering embracing the digital age by accepting Bitcoin and other types of digital payment methods, according to a report.

The Wall Street Journal reports that the company is interested in getting a slice of online transactions like gaming and telephony

the original WSJ commentary has nothing to do with bitcoins...

the quote from a Western Union representative was:
“If you want to top up a Skype account or add value to an online gaming platform, those are the kinds of partnerships I’m working to develop,” said David Thompson, executive vice president of global operations and CIO at Western Union.

and the reporter somehow connected that to bitcoins... :1orglaugh
