Gamers and bitcoin users are generally early adopters when it comes to technology and it won’t be surprising if someone publishes report saying majority of bitcoiners are gamers or vice versa. Until now both of these communities were not directly linked except for some form of game money which happens to be some kind of digital currency. Not anymore, for gamers can now use bitcoin to buy the latest games and expansion packs on G2A.com
