Bitcoin support coming soon!
We are excited to announce that Steam is going to start accepting payments
via bitcoin.
We’re using an external payment provider to process bitcoin payments to help
partners reach more customers on Steam. Bitcoin is becoming an increasingly
popular online payment method in some countries, and we’re enabling a system
that insulates partners from risk and volatility while still providing value
to the end customer.
You do not need to take any action. If customers choose to pay via bitcoin,
they’ll still be charged the price already set in the local currency. Here’
s how it works:
The user is charged the local currency price on Steam given their region (eg.
£29.99).
The payment processor converts that £29.99 amount into bitcoin based on a
daily exchange rate - so the user pays them in bitcoin, and the processor
pays us in traditional currency. At no time does Valve receive or hold
bitcoin.
There is no need to set a bitcoin price or keep track of bitcoin valuation.
The purchase price of your product does not change.
We’re looking forward to the update, and we think it makes Steam an even
better place to buy and play games.
之前只是泄漏出API出来,这次是官方正式宣布。
不过blockchain天天都在爆满的状态,希望Bitcoin blockchain不要彻底崩溃。
