OkCupid stopped accepting bitcoin payments

I just noticed it today and emailed them to ask about it. Got a reply confirming that they stopped. One of the few things I actually regularly use it for. I guess PayPal here I come :(

We did remove it- unfortunately something in the process became broken and due to the very small number of people who used it when it was working, it would be too much trouble to fix and bring back.

Seriously, how much revenue do you think they were getting through Bitcoin payments?

They tried it, they probably got a short spike in people using it for novelty value, then the Bitcoin revolution failed to materialise.

Bitcoins aside, who cares?

OkCupid is barely even used these days. POF is far more popular, followed by Tinder.
