Comments made by Overstock.com CEO Patrick Byrne earlier this week in an interview with Bitcoin news site newsBTC, on the other hand, are actually quite important in their own right. Byrne announced that the Utah-based online retailer plans to begin accepting Bitcoin by the latter half of 2014.

So who will actually mine coins to buy stuff from Overstock when they accept it.
